Little Power House
I have owned many Nespresso machines throughout the years and I love the Essenza Mini. It is compact, lite-weight and has the same quality that Nespresso puts into all their machines.

Used item, find out because it has a capsule in the collection tray.

Our second Mini - so satisfied with the first, which lasted really well
Small footprint means we can position the machine centrally in the kitchen. No redundant milk attachments is perfect. Makes great coffee.

Small but mighty Nespresso
I absolutely love my Nespresso Mini coffee maker! Despite its size, it brews rich, smooth, café-quality coffee in just minutes. The machine is super easy to use and heats up quickly, which is perfect for busy mornings. Highly recommend!

Terrible customer service
I had this model shipped to me. When it arrived, there was no packaging inside the box and the unit looked used. I returned it via FedEx, which customer service confirmed. That was a month ago and still haven't received credit. They said it with br another 5-7 days. Unacceptable!

Excellent little coffee machine
I purchased this nespresso essnza mini a few days ago the machine is great easy to use heats up quickly and fits perfectly in small kitchen spaces. The performance is consistent, and the overall quality feels premium. It’s a great choice for anyone who wants a quick, high-quality espresso at home.the capsules go in easily and the coffee is hot only the only downfall i see is the capsules that came with it are very weak in flavour might need to use a coffee whitener or just use the expresso shot not the lungo and add hot milk to it.other than that i love the machine ,but not the capsules i will test more cpsule brands as i can perhaps they may be more flavour not weak watery taste.

With this machine I now make the best coffee in my
This machine is incredible. Espresso is not simple to make at home but this little guy does the trick. I'm saving a TON of money now that I make better espresso than every coffee shop in my town. It doesn't take up much counter space being small and compact. You have 2 brewing options a Shot or a Lungo. If you do Lungo I highly recommend making sure the coffee pods you use is Lungo specific as if not it can taste very watery.

5 years later and still worth it
I’ve had my Nespresso mini for about 5 years now and it’s still going strong. As long as you keep up with the cleaning and descaling, it really holds up. Mine works just as good as when I first bought it. It’s super compact, doesn’t take up much counter space - which is great especially when we move every 3 years and always have different layouts in our kitchens. I will say it’s a little loud while brewing. It’s not crazy but you definitely hear it. It o my runs for a few seconds so it’s never a bother. For the price, I think it’s great value. You get reliable good-quality espresso at home without spending hundreds on a big machine. After 5 years of daily use, I can confidently say it was worth every penny. I still love it!

Don't purchase electronics at Target
Horrible experience. The first purchase lasted less than a month. The replace was shipped in loose pieces in a large box.

Hi. Thank you for your review. We are dismayed to learn the Essenza Mini machine does not meet your expectations. We recommend running a priming cycle through your machine once a week your machine assists with keeping the taste, texture, body and aroma in each brew. We also recommend descaling your machine every three months or 300 capsules, whichever comes first. If you need assistance with your Essenza Mini, please do not hesitate to contact us on our toll-free number, 800-562-1465. Each machine comes with at least a one-year warranty and lifetime troubleshooting assistance Thanks!

Too beautiful 😻
It’s the perfect size for a coffee station , and has very elegant design . Holds 4-6 capsules , it’s easy to use just add water tank and press either the expresso or lungo button to turn it on . You wait approximatley 30 seconds and then insert the original capsules . It’s very easy and convenient to use

Not user friendly
Really small . Cups don't fit underneath. Cup stand pieces are a pain, not under friendly to retrieve pods or empty water. Water dispenser is also not user friendly.
