I've Said It Once, I'll Say It Again: "The Nespresso Vertuo Pop Is My Favorite Pod Machine, Ever" — And It's Only £59 Right Now

Out of all the coffee machines I have tested this year (and trust me, there have been a lot), only a couple have really taken me by surprise. I often start with the prejudice that a machine is too 'automatic', too big, or too expected, and then, after testing, realize I was completely wrong. And my biggest misconception to date? Writing off the Nespresso Vertuo Pop, only for it to become the appliance that turned me into a coffee-pod person again.

Now Nespresso's Vertuo Pop Machine is on sale for Amazon Prime Day (and £40 off, might I add), it's back on my mind. How do coffee pod machines hold up against the craft-centered espresso maker? Can you have both in your coffee station? I'll start by saying the Vertuo Pop machine's main appeal is convenience. It's for the person who lives on the go and needs their caffeine fix to be as streamlined as possible, but still versatile and delicious.
