As a lifelong coffee lover, there are few things I appreciate more than the perfect cup of coffee or shot of espresso. But I know better than anyone that at-home barista dreams and city living aren't exactly compatible, as my lack of kitchen space has forced me to suffer with some less-than-ideal coffee makers over the years. Thankfully, a family member put me out of my misery and gifted me the Nespresso Vertuo Pop+, which makes all of the café-quality coffee and espresso drinks I love without monopolizing my precious counter space. If you, too, are on the hunt for a cute and compact brewing setup, you can get the machine 23% off now on Amazon.
The Pop+ machine, which our kitchen editors found to be the Nespresso machine with the best value in our best Nespresso machine guide, brews five sizes of Nespresso pods, from single espresso shots to 12-ounce cups of coffee. With the help of Nespresso's Aeroccino3 Milk Frother, I've used the machine to make both hot and iced specialty drinks like cappuccinos, americanos, and lattes that I would normally be willing to pay for in a coffee shop. With only a 30-second preheat time, getting the perfect brew has never been easier.
Despite being Nespresso's smallest machine, the Pop+ has plenty of fun and convenient features. I love that it can be paired with the Nespresso app to give me recipe ideas and remind me when to descale the machine. The height of the cup stand can be adjusted, which helps minimize splatters while I'm brewing into a smaller cup. The machine also has a convenient compartment that collects used pods as you go, so you can recycle a bunch at once. Plus, it's super cute and comes in eight fun colors, so you can match it to your kitchen.

I've used lots of single-serve, drip, percolator, and French press machines in the past, and the Nespresso consistently makes the best coffee, is the most versatile, and is the easiest to use. I'd recommend it to any coffee lover, regardless of how tight your space is.
With hundreds of five-star ratings on Amazon, it seems I'm not alone in this opinion. "I thought my pour-over coffee was fast in the morning, but the Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ (with the accompanying milk frother) has changed my morning routine. It's a pleasure to get up and make my morning latte," said one reviewer. "Delicious coffee and I found myself not needing to add sweetener with the addition of the frothed milk. Very happy with my purchase."
Unlike other machines that can be an eyesore, shoppers love having this one on their counter. "We are moving soon, and I have themed my entire kitchen around this machine because I love the color," said another reviewer who purchased the machine in mint. It's super sturdy, makes my coffee super fast, and is adorable."
With the current discount on Amazon, certain colors of the Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ are just $100. Add it to your cart now while the deal lasts.
