Nespresso's newest slim Vertuo brews six cup sizes in seconds, adds a dedicated iced-coffee mode, and packs a rotating 47 oz tank.

A modernized slim Dedica with twin thermoblocks for no-wait steaming, preset recipes, and a rapid cold brew mode.

The one Active Line pump machine De'Longhi still sells in the US and the replacement for the ECP3420: the same 15-bar pump and 37-oz tank, with an adjustable panarello frother, a 3-in-1 pressurized filter holder for single shots, doubles or ESE pods, and a two-level drip tray for taller cups.
