...exclusive.
I chose the Magimix M100 as it was a good brand and had the best deal going. There is very little difference in the design of the Magimix or Krups as far as I could see. For £99 (from Amazon - now £127) I got the machine, a selection box of the 12 coffees and the Aeroccino - a sort of kettle for milk that heats and froths the milk. There was also a further incentive of £30 cashback from Nespresso on buying the machine so for £69 I felt ... ...very compact and takes up less counter space than most machines. Mine is a steel grey with shiny chrome and black fittings but its available in colours from powder blue to a distinctive orange. It has a detachable water container at the bag and the drip tray and coffee collector slip out easily for cleaning. Essentially the system relies on a sealed mini-pot of coffee that you drop into the machine, which is punctured to release the hot water through ...

...THE BOX
1 x Nespresso Magimix M100 in Coral Red
1 x Assortment of coffee pods (1 of each brand = 12 in total)
1 x Nespresso Manual in a neat binder
FIRST REACTION
The whole product is nicely packaged, you can tell this is no cheap coffee making machine. The machine looks very nice, very smooth with rounded edges and the red is very nice. The size is smaller than I thought which is great for me as I have small kitchen.
SETTING UP
After putting ... ...the machine and the water jug on the back and plugging it in) it did take me a while to work out why the cup light on the machine was constantly flashing which meant it was warming up. The instructions are on a large piece of matt paper with a diagram/flowchart of what to do. This was ok as far as instructions go but the fact the diagram goes round in a circle caused me a little confusion. But like I said, after a few attempts I managed to figure ...

Advantages: Makes amazing coffee Disadvantages: No milk functions
If you like fresh black coffee then this is the machine you have to have. If you want to add frothy milk then you should go for one of the other models that has a steamer on it but I personally only drink it black so this is the best one in my opinion.
So why is it so good? The 2 main points are that it is quick and easy plus it tastes great. It is quick because all you do is add water, wait a few seconds for it to heat up and then put the coffee ... ...of the machine afterwards. This is a very important aspect. You simply run water through it for a couple of seconds and it is done. I am very lazy and this means everything to me. I used to have a fresh coffee machine but never used it because it took longer to clean that to drink the coffee. I bought my machine from Selfridges but you can pick them up anywhere. If you live in London it is easy to buy pods in town but for everyone else you have to ...

Advantages: Quick delicious tasting coffee Disadvantages: possibly more expensive way to enjoy coffee but well worth it!
We have had our Nespresso for 2 months now and we think it is GREAT!
The coffee from the capsuels smells delightful, ideal for the pick me up in the morning.
The selection of coffees are vast; perfect for those who like the stronger more intense esspresso and ideal for others who enjoy a more mild longer coffee to linger over.
The machine itself is compact and tidy and comes in a variety of colours.
It isn't bulky or obtrusive in any way.
It ... ...comes out in quick swift movement with no mess. The spout doesn't drip either.
It warms up in less that a minute and the coffee is poured in less than 30 seconds from pressing the required amout ie esspresso or lungo .
Coffee selections are great. Strong rich flavours, decaffinated, or mellow delicate coffees.
The only downside (an this is very tiny) is that when that machine is making the coffee, it also makes a low buzzing noise, but nothing ...

Quick review of Magimix Nespresso M100
I have brought and owned this machine for about 6 months, I love the coffee that comes out of this machine and love the fact it is fairly instant and quick.
The only downside is the capsules have to be brought on line, but i find buying 100 at a time means you only need to do this a few times a year.
They have a wide range of coffees to chose from and nespresso send a magazine everyfew months telling you about new products and how to look after your machine. ...

Quick review of Magimix Nespresso M100
Nespresso is a fabulous system, no coffee grounds, no mess, just good coffee every time. Ordering the capsules is easy and delivery is always efficient and complete. Highly recommend getting a system for home use. The taste of a coffee house at a fraction of the price. Plus it always impresses visitors that you can give them an excellent coffee in a few minutes! ...

...empty however be careful not to throw the basket away with the capsules. The Magimix Nespresso M100 in general is compact and hardly takes up any space on my kitchen work surface and has been a MASSIVE hit in my household. Can't see how we lived before this great machine! ...
