Nespresso Vertuo Lattissima by De’Longhi (ENV300)

Tom’s Guide’s best Nespresso machine overall (July 2026), and the easiest way to a latte at the touch of a button. The 16-ounce milk tank makes cappuccinos, lattes or hot foam in one touch, then comes off for the fridge or dishwasher.

It brews six sizes, from single and double espresso to 5, 8, 12 and 18-ounce coffees, hot or over ice. It heats up in 30 seconds and has a descaling alert and an adjustable drip tray. Prices vary by color.

Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe by De’Longhi with Aeroccino3

The cheapest latte setup here, and Tom’s Guide names the Vertuo Pop+ its best value Nespresso. This bundle adds the Aeroccino3 frother for hot or cold milk foam in one touch, so it handles lattes, cappuccinos and cold-foam iced coffee.

It brews five sizes, from single and double espresso to 5, 8 and 12-ounce coffees, hot or over ice. The 37-ounce water tank sits on the side to save depth, it heats up in 30 seconds, and it ejects used pods automatically.

Nespresso Vertuo Creatista by Breville (BVE850)

Tom’s Guide’s best Nespresso for milky drinks, and the only Vertuo with a barista-style steam wand for latte art. Choose from customizable temperature and froth settings and steam milk in the included 8-ounce stainless jug.

It brews the same six Vertuo sizes as the Lattissima, up to an 18-ounce coffee, hot or over ice. One-touch brewing, 30-second heat-up, automatic pod ejection and a brushed stainless body make it the most premium machine here.

It has the lowest Amazon rating here, and a steam wand takes practice, so it’s best for people who want full control over their milk.

Nespresso Gran Lattissima by De’Longhi (EN640)

The most one-touch recipes here: nine drinks, from espresso to foamed and flat milk recipes, using De’Longhi’s one-touch fresh milk system. The milk container comes off and can go straight into the fridge between uses.

It uses Original capsules with a 19-bar pump, fast heat-up, a passive cup warmer and a sliding drip tray for cups or tall glasses. The white version costs more than black on Amazon. Tasting Table ranked it low among Nespresso machines, citing weak crema and frequent descaling.

Nespresso Essenza Mini by Breville with Aeroccino (BEC250)

The smallest machine here, and Tasting Table ranked the Essenza Mini #2 of every Nespresso machine, calling it ideal for first-time buyers and small spaces. This bundle adds an Aeroccino frother for latte foam.

It heats up in 25 seconds, brews Original espresso and lungo at one touch, and shuts off automatically to save energy. If you already own a frother, a machine-only option is on the same listing.

Nespresso Lattissima One by De’Longhi (EN510)

The simplest one-touch Original machine: three coffee recipes and three milk recipes, including cappuccino, latte macchiato and latte. Its milk jug is sized for one drink, so there’s no leftover milk to store.

The water tank and milk container are dishwasher-safe, and a descaling alert keeps it running well. It switches to eco mode after 3 minutes and turns off after 9, and the compact body suits narrow counters.
