Features

One-Touch Latte & CappuccinoDetachable 16.9 oz Milk CarafeCentrifusion Extraction (No Pump)Barcode Capsule Recognition6 Cup SizesAuto-Clean Milk System

Pros

  • Only Vertuo model with an integrated milk system - lattes and cappuccinos with a single button press
  • Milk carafe detaches, stores leftover milk in the fridge, and is fully dishwasher safe
  • Large 54 oz water tank means far fewer refills than the Pop+ or Vertuo Next
  • Barcode scanning auto-sets brew parameters for every capsule from espresso to 18 oz carafe

Cons

  • Centrifugal spinning, not 19-bar pump pressure - crema is frothy rather than true espresso
  • Milk froth is fixed at one texture - no fine control like a Creatista steam wand offers
  • Big 16-inch-deep footprint with the carafe attached hogs counter space
  • Locked into pricier Vertuo capsules with no third-party alternatives
