Breville Creatista Plus Nespresso Coffee Machine Brushed Stainless Steel

Overall this is probably the best (and most expensive) originaline machine, and we like it. However I am only giving it two stars because it doesn’t matter how great a machine is if it breaks and is out of service 5-10% of the time. We have had the machine for less than two years and it has broken twice. The first time (after about 1.5 years months of use) it leaked water all over the countertop from the bottom. Nespresso had us ship the machine back and ultimately they could not repair it, so they sent us a new one. That process took about three weeks. The second time the machine just would not turn on. This happened about six months after receiving the replacement machine. Again Nespresso asked us to send it back for repair. So again we are looking at 2-3 weeks ... MoreOverall this is probably the best (and most expensive) originaline machine, and we like it.

There is a two year warranty on this expensive machine. The next time ours breaks, I suspect it won’t be covered and we will have to pay for a new one, or buy a less-expensive machine without all the bells and whistles that we have now become accustomed to… not to mention adding this big cluck of metal to a landfill (seems contrary to Nespresso’s principles…).

I am so disappointed at the nespresso machines. You would think for the price you would get quality machines. I got this machine as a replacement in May due to the original machine I purchased (Lattissma) was also malfunctioning so they replaced it with this one. Everything on it works fine except when it comes time to deacale the machine it doesnt do it. It doesn’t recognize that you completed the descale so u keep having to repeat the process. If the process is not complete you can’t use the coffee machine anymore. The first time i had to call and they helped to get it to work now the second time it is not working again so now I have to send my machine in to see if they can fix it or have to replace it. It is a 2 week process so I will be out of a coffee machine ... MoreI am so disappointed at the nespresso machines. You would think for the price you would get quality machines.

Great product. Compact design, doesn't take up a lot of bench space. Simple to use, easy to clean and maintain. Stainless steel design, looks good in our kitchen and is easy to clean. Display screen is easy to read, simple straight forward instructions, intuitive layout, and ability to adjust settings to get your perfect cup of coffee every time. Uses standard Nespresso pods and milk frothing is simple, no complex plumbing to clean, just a stainless steel jug and automatic temperature control steam which shuts off automatically when selected temperature is reached. Couldn't be simpler. It automatically tells you when certain cleaning functions are required, then steps you through the process, couldn't be easier. Just a delight to use.
