I bought my first Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ coffee machine on a whim after seeing it used in a recipe for an iced cookie butter latte on TikTok. The latte consisted of lots of crushed ice, melted cookie butter, milk, cookie dough syrup and a shot of espresso — and this thing looked so good that I had to have everything necessary to recreate it. So, after seeing that the Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ was on sale on Amazon, I decided to treat myself to one — and I haven’t regretted it since.

Fast forward to now, when this machine is still on sale for over 30% off after Amazon’s Cyber Monday event. Here’s a deep dive into why this is my most-used kitchen appliance, and why you should add one to your cart ASAP.

One thing I love most about this machine is how versatile it is; you can make everything from iced coffees to espresso shots to Americanos with it. When I purchased my Nespresso, it came with 12 complimentary pods. Some were 1-2 ounces of espresso, while other pods could make 5-12 ounces of coffee. I really enjoyed using the Ice Leggero, Bianco Forte and Intenso pods, but you can also purchase different pods on Amazon.

This Nespresso Coffee and Espresso Maker is compact, so it’s perfect for small apartments, countertops, work desks or even for traveling. And with its one-touch system, it couldn’t be easier to use. Just add your water to the reservoir, open the top of the machine, add your pod, close it and touch the button to start the brewing process. Whether you’re making two or 12 ounces of coffee, each brew is velvety and smooth.

Another thing I love about this machine is its sleek design, which blends in seamlessly with my other appliances. I’ve made everything from iced s’mores lattes to hot vanilla caramel lattes to the aforementioned viral TikTok iced cookie butter latte with this machine, and I can confirm that it’s my favorite kitchen appliance. I loved it so much that I even set up my own coffee station around it with my favorite syrups, mugs and other essentials.

I love to use my Nespresso machine to brew espresso to make my favorite latte in the morning, and sometimes I’ll make a full cup of coffee in the evening (especially when it’s cold out). I’ve definitely increased my barista skills since purchasing it, too. I’ve made different types of lattes and drinks for my friends and family with this machine, and I have an entire TikTok folder dedicated to Nespresso recipes.

Overall, I’m very happy with my investment in this Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Machine. With fewer trips to the coffee shop, it has saved me a ton of money and gas (and this is coming from someone who lives close to five different coffee shops). So, if you’re looking to invest in a new appliance, I definitely recommend grabbing this Nespresso machine while it’s still on sale for 33% off. Besides, why not treat yourself to your favorite coffee drink from the comfort of home?
