Pros
- ✓Real 19-bar pump extraction of OriginalLine capsules delivers proper crema-topped espresso
- ✓34 oz water tank brews roughly ten shots between refills - noticeably more than the Pixie
- ✓Folding cup tray fits tall latte glasses under the spout, rare for a slim pod machine
- ✓OriginalLine format accepts cheap third-party capsules from dozens of roasters
Cons
- ✗No milk frothing built in - the Aeroccino bundle pushes the price near $300
- ✗Only two cup sizes (espresso and lungo), so no barcode-style automatic drink variety
- ✗Drip tray area stains and shows spills quickly on the glossy finish
- ✗Costs more than the Essenza Plus while making functionally identical shots
