Amazon has the silver one for $99. Does she have to use the Nespresso pods exclusively though?


yes, it only takes the metal nespresso capsules. said capsule is not remotely shaped like a k cup. it is also a legit steam/pressure brewer, not a hot water dripper.

I see you can use your own scoop of coffee, but can you also use a kcup or pod as well?


the problem with k-cups is that they are expensive as hell. The scoop gives the ability to adjust strength and it is much cheaper

that is the nesspresso I have used. it is solid.

Looking at Nespresso makers on Amazon. Which one would you recommend? I'm hoping to keep this under $150 as well.


I don't really have any recs on it other than the brand. My parents have one, and have gotten them for each of my brothers, and they all speak highly of them. But I don't know which ones they have.

It takes other brands of Nespresso-shaped (compatible) capsules.
I buy Nespresso and HiLine coffee. I have not had good luck with any other brands.
I recommend the Inisissia w/ Aerocino Frother @ that price point.
