Our read on this product
This is the espresso machine you get when counter space is a luxury you can't afford, but you still want proper espresso. It’s barely wider than a large smartphone, yet it packs a 20-bar Italian pump that actually pulls a decent shot. The real magic is how they fit all that into such a tiny package.
It heats up in under a minute and brews a shot in about 30 seconds, which means your morning caffeine fix is ready almost instantly. Plus, it automatically ejects the used Nespresso capsule into a bin, and it even has a descaling function to keep it running smoothly. The whole water circuit is made from food-grade, BPA-free materials, so you don't have to worry about what's in your coffee.
What makes it stand out
- Its 3.3" width allows it to fit on even the most crowded countertops, unlike wider machines that demand dedicated space.
- Features a 20-bar Italian pump for authentic espresso extraction, which is rare in machines this small.
- Heats up in 40 seconds and brews in under a minute, offering speed that larger machines often can't match.
- Auto-ejects used capsules into a collection bin, a convenience not found on many basic espresso makers.
When this isn't the right fit
- You have ample counter space and prefer a larger machine with more manual controls.
- You don't use Nespresso Original capsules and need a different pod system.
- You prefer to grind your own beans for espresso.
Real-world notes
- The compact size means the water reservoir and capsule bin are small, requiring more frequent refills and emptying.
- Despite its small footprint, it has a solid weight that keeps it stable during operation.
Consider this if you need a high-performance espresso maker that truly disappears into your countertop.
