Delonghi EN80BAE Black Nespresso Inissia Coffee Machine

Price-wise it’s great, you can get it for free sometimes by purchasing X amount of coffee capsules or credits. Performance-wise it had been good for a year and then it got clogged so now we have to press the coffee button like 4 times to get to a decent amount of coffee. And yes, we did descaling multiple times. So if this is your intro for nespresso, or you only drink coffee once a week - great purchase. If you plan on using it multiple times a week, look for more advanced options. If you are still deciding between vertuo and original - original will definitely get you more flavour options, but if you are a latte/cappuccino person, go for vertuo. These flavour options aren’t a big deal and you probably won’t be able to tell the difference with your eyes closed, but ... MorePrice-wise it’s great, you can get it for free sometimes by purchasing X amount of coffee capsules or credits.

DeLonghi knows coffee machines

I love this Nespresso machine! I'd never used one before until a holiday in Port Fairy, earlier in the year. My nephew showed me how it works and I've never looked back. For some reason, I always thought that caspule coffee machines didn't produce a strong coffee. I was wrong on that. The machine is so easy to use and the coffee tastes wonderful. It also looks good on my bench. It's such a treat to wake up to a barista syle coffee (or two) every day.

De’Longhi Nespresso inessia in black. Great!!

It’s a tiny machine that makes espresso in seconds with no mess. What more could you want. I recommend this machine, which is not nearly as loud as people expressed in their reviews. Especially if time and space is a must. Or even if it isn’t, I have plenty of counter space and I love how small this is. I guarantee if you order this sight unseen, you’ll flip at how small a footprint this takes up. Just don’t buy this if you’re looking for a drip style coffee. This is an espresso machine and even though in descriptions people use the word coffee, it’s espresso and with that said you could make americanos. Always run the machine empty once or twice before each use to prime the pump so you get a clean, hot, and consistent size. I love it!

Don't give up if it doesn't work

First of all, I almost returned it because it did not work at all when I received it. I followed the troubleshooting guide but nothing worked. I called the number provided and after over 30 minutes of the very patient man over the phone having me do several factory resets if finally started working and so far after a week of using it daily I've had no issues. I guess if it's been sitting in a warehouse for a long time on it's side it can get air bubbles or something like that. Walmart has a 90 day return and I also registered this product and there is a one year warranty so hopefully it lasts. It makes the most delicious coffee! I use a drip coffee maker in the morning and the Nespresso is my afternoon pick me up! I love it. With 19 bars of pressure, the same as ... MoreFirst of all, I almost returned it because it did not work at all when I received it. I followed the troubleshooting guide but nothing worked.

Exchanged 3 times so far

I seem to have extremely bad luck because my first machine purchased in store didn't pump water. Nespresso help suggested I exchange it since it was defective. Went back to the store today yesterday to get another one, only with the exact same problem. After almost an hour on the phone with Nespresso, they said the second machine was also defective and needed to be exchanged. This morning I went yet again to exchange the machine. And once again, the machine is defective out of the box - this time water was leaking out of the bottom of the machine and not coming out the front. After an hour on the phone with Nespresso, they finally agreed for me to send them this machine and get a replacement instead of going back to Canadian Tire for a fourth exchange.... Very ... MoreI seem to have extremely bad luck because my first machine purchased in store didn't pump water. Nespresso help suggested I exchange it since it was defective.

Gift for Birthday, plenty of brownie points won!

This was purchased as a gift for my dad for his birthday, and he loves it! The machine is a vast improvement over his traditional instant coffee, and just as quick with the machine's brew time. The milk frother works quite well, adding greater texture to the beverage which he certainly appreciates. The machine looks sleek, is a good size and would fit into any kitchen. I would recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade from instant, but not wanting to go full barista mode.

Jerry's review of Magimix Nespresso Inissia

Pros: I came accross this machine when I rented a holiday home and I was so impressed I had to but one. The water is heated up very quickly and is ready to use in just 25 seconds. Beautiful coffee is made via this machine and the pods and is on a par with anything I have had from a coffee shop. It is good to purchase different coffee pods to see what is out there. I received 14 nespresso samples with the machine and they have all been delicious. They also provided some decaf pods. The stongest sample with a 12 strength certainly did the job! The machine will also take other brands and I especially like the Starbucks Columbian pods. I would definitely recommend this machine for beatifully made coffee.Cons: None, but just remember to empty the used pods holder ... MorePros: I came accross this machine when I rented a holiday home and I was so impressed I had to but one.

Loud and Lukewarm

Got this machine as a Christmas gift and while it's nice to have, I would not purchase this model now that we've been using it for a bit.It's very loud, so if you don't live alone and you're trying to be quiet in the mornings - don't plan on using this machine.The beverages are all lukewarm. This is the biggest issue for me. I like a little bit of cream with my coffee and by the time I add the cream, it's borderline cold. So I wind up gulping it down before it's cold or heating up, my just made drink, before adding cream....not ideal. Our Keurig has multiple heat settings and that is a big advantage over Nespresso.We are very happy with the quality and taste of pods we've tried so far. I really enjoy a Volluto Decaffeinato in the evening, it's the best decaf ... MoreGot this machine as a Christmas gift and while it's nice to have, I would not purchase this model now that we've been using it for a bit.It's very loud, so if you don't live alone and you're trying to be quiet in the mornings - don't plan on using this machine.The beverages are all lukewarm.

Machine is great perfect espresso !

First to address an issue "coffee isn't hot enough " I felt this way when I first had a nespresso machine (gifted that one as the promotion of $150 credit makes a new one $50 not incl taxes.) The machine can give you approx 160 to 170F , ill tell you how i did below , once, I realised I'm making a drink that is ready to drink. It comes with a milk heater/frother because it's meant to go into or have added steamed or frothed milk/cream etc. I was adding to cold cream or milk. The other thing I didto make brew hotter: I run a empty small size capsule through it, this pre warms the water heating plate and water tubes in the machine ,resulting in a hotter drink. Follow these steps (which should be in the manual and wish they would or make a button press mode to simply ... MoreFirst to address an issue "coffee isn't hot enough " I felt this way when I first had a nespresso machine (gifted that one as the promotion of $150 credit makes a new one $50 not incl taxes.)

Follow these steps (which should be in the manual and wish they would or make a button press mode to simply run hot water like the cleaning mode does , This also helps to warm your drinking vessel. Although I pre warm my mug with tap hot water.I often wondered why they don't make machines anymore that are super hot. Could be McDonald's coffee lawsuit from early 2000s or higher Temps burn the coffee. IDK either way this is way better and cheaper than any chain coffee shop.I'm very pleased and Nespressos if by far the superior choice to the other brew at home under $500 machines. My dream is a fully automatic machine like the delonghi ones movie stat brad pitt advertises Delicio or something .Breville and Delonghi are two of the best brew at home mfgs and that's who makes nespresso . Very impressed. Capsule very fast and clean process. The brad p machine takes beans, and does milk the same as some nespresso ones . However this is a $200 product and the brad one costs almost 10x as much before you've had a single cup. My only wish is that the machines also made hot water for tea and hot chocolate.

Since 2016 ... still brewing. Recommend!

I've had my unit since Dec 2016 and still brewing like new. A nice deal popped up on Macy's that came with the frother, and I'm so glad I took that advantage. It has started showing its tantrums though, of leaking a bit more water after each use. The motor used to be louder some months ago but it's been back to normal. I've also purchased the mini, that too was another great deal and also came with the frother. Haven't used that yet but just incase the inissia fail on me which I don't see it coming anytime soon. But just incase. Definitely recommend. The Creatista is next on my list but that price needs to do better.
