Nespresso (by De'Longhi/Magimix)Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Vertuo Plus is the step up for people who want the Vertuo experience without the Pop's compromises. It carries the same Centrifusion barcode brewing but adds a larger, repositionable removable tank and the range's biggest cup, the 414ml Alto, so it suits big-mug drinkers and small households better. Independent reviewers give it a modest, measurable edge over the Pop on flavour balance, attributing this to a more standard brew temperature and faster heat-up. What you give up for that is size and money: at an indicative £120 it costs meaningfully more than the Pop and takes up more room, while sharing the same Vertuo-only pods at roughly 45-65p a cup. It earns second rather than first place because that quality gain is small and the value is weaker, but it is the pick when cup size and tank capacity matter more than footprint.
