Nespresso C60 Pixie Espresso Makers
Nespresso C60 Pixie Espresso Makers
PROS:
- Small footprint makes this machine well suited for smaller kitchens that don't have a lot of counter space.
- Heats up very quickly, i.e. making coffee is quite fast
- Cute design
- Coffee is very good and hot, with excellent crema, just like it is with the Citiz.
CONS:
- Smaller water reservoir means frequent refilling.
-
Reservoir is more difficult to remove than on the Citiz. It clicks into
the machine at the top via two plastic 'hooks' which only retract when
one opens the reservoir's hinged lid. With the lid open, one then lifts
the reservoir up and out. We found this a bit tedious, coming from the
more straight-forward design of the Citiz where no opening of the lid is
required, one lifts it out and is done.
- The cup tray folds up for
taller cups such as latte macchiato glasses but it does not stay folded
up on its own, i.e. one has to hold the tray with one hand and place the
cup down with the other. As soon as the cup is removed, the tray falls
back into its original position
- We found that there is noticeable
coffee spray during operation. We had to place the machine on a towel
and move it away from anything that could be permanently soiled by that
spraying, such as walls.
