As many have said these Vertuo machines are very expensive to run. You can only buy pods direct from Nespresso. They range in price from 48p to 99p each.
The original Nespresso pods can be made by 3rd parties and are available online and in supermarkets everywhere. Amazon for example has their own brand pods (Solimo) currently available at 10p each.
If your household drinks 4 coffees a day then it would cost you £554.80 extra per year using the cheapest Vertuo pods compared to the cheapest original style pods.
This explains why there are so many deals on Vertuo machines as Nespresso are subsidising the machine cost to reap the large rewards of this lucrative subscription model.
Do yourself a favour and find an original Nespresso machine. I bought mine from Amazon.de. You can get them delivered for under £70.
Alternatively get yourself a Lorespresso machine for £59. These are multifunctional and work with the original Nespresso pods or their own proprietary XL pods bringing you the best of both worlds. I wish I’d bought one of these tbh.
If cost of coffee is a concern to you then avoid Vertuo machines, however cheap the machine may appear.
