WACACOMinipresso NS2, Portable Espresso Maker Compatible with *Nespresso®*Original Capsules and Compatibles, Manually Operated, 18 Bar Small Handheld Coffee Machine for Travel, Camping

High quality, makes good coffee. Good value for such a small item. Looks amazing and easy to use

Do the job well, the expresso taste better than a full size machine. Not so easy to do but it is what it is a portable nespresso maker. For tracel is nice.

When it works, espresso is good, portability is excellent (I bought the additional case with mat etc) and minimal fuss/mess. Unfortunately, I've had two of these now and, despite using genuine pods, they've both lost pressure for no reason and stopped pumping water through the pods. Bit of a waste of money and won't be replacing a third time.

I adore this item.It’s easy to use but also annoying. I fill the chamber with hot water and I extract the coffee. But I like to use the same pod and refill for another batch (lungo)…this take a very long time to extract. You’re not supposed to do this but I like to get my moneys worth out of a pod.Otherwise it’s a brilliant machine. Love the flexibility of it. Very easy to clean.If you use plastic pods it’s more challenging to extract. Metal pods are better.

This is a great product, and very well made. It feels like a top quality piece of kit for sure, and it does make a great nespresso!However, I bought this for my mum and her partner who travel a lot in their camper van, and they actually couldn't use it as it causes too much strain on their hands. I have used it a few times, I am a young fitness enthusiast, and I also found it to be a lot of work. I definitely shy away from having my usual double espresso because I am exhausted after the first shot.

I'd heard about these from friends - that they were great, though not perfect. After a recent trip to Italy - yes ITALY - where there was absolutely no decent coffee in the hotel and none within reasonable walking distance (only an INSTANT machine in a 4* hotel!!!!) that was the final straw and I thought I would give this new model of this device a go. I must say - it's genuinely life changing! Much as I'll still hunt out a good coffee shop - when my options are limited (I'm in rural Japan right now) - this is an absolute life saver. (No offense Japan - you have some pretty great coffee here and I'm a bit of a matcha addict too. In fact I carry a tin of that around with me as well where ever I go. ) As for the device itself - it's a lovely item. It's built very well and clearly high quality. It makes an excellent single shot expresso - the tank holds enough to make a double in my opinion - though I've always leaned toward the ristretto so maybe I'm not the person to ask. As per my friends advice - I warm the tank up first with boiling water before refreshing with new hot water and operating the device. The coffee comes out at the perfect temperature with an excellent cremma. I've used Starbucks capsules so far and they fit well with no leakage or issues. (Note - do not judge this device if you use it with poor quality capsules I would say - they often fail and leak in counter top machines so I would assume they would in this. Stick to the better brands!) To improve the experience - next time I travel I will bring a small expresso cup with me as well - though the plastic one supplied is adequate for it's purpose. Anyway - signing off - I'm in need of another expresso fix. Enjoy!

This is a complete game changer if you drink lots of coffee~ it’s seriously small and hardly to believe it can produce super coffee ~ but it does. I had the earlier version and this version NS2 is even more compact ~ it also produces more coffee to drink 80 instead of 70 for the older version. It seems really well made and comes nicely boxed with a carry bag. So far I’m finding it really easy to use~ pressure to operate the pump is much smoother and easier than the first version so if you have weak hands this NS2 is the one to get. With coffee in shops costing between £2.90 and £3.25 this will save you money very quickly as the capsules are between 20p and 50p each ~ that’s a very cheap coffee. Just take a flask of hot water with you and this compact NS2 plus a couple of coffee pods and away you go. Totally brilliant. Buy one.
