The Nespresso CitiZ XN7415 is the best-looking Original Line machine, for espresso and lungo drinkers who make few milk drinks.

Third-party reviews

What we like about Nespresso Citiz XN7415

  • Sleek and compact 13cm slim design that fits small kitchen counters easily
  • Fast heat-up time reaching operational temperature in about 25 seconds
  • Sturdy build quality featuring a solid steel chassis and robust metal components
  • Generous 1-liter removable water tank that holds more than smaller entry models
  • Adjustable folding cup tray that comfortably accommodates taller glasses
  • High 19-bar pump pressure that extracts rich flavor and thick crema
  • Wide compatibility with affordable third-party Original Line capsules
  • Simple and intuitive operation with programmable Espresso and Lungo buttons

What we don't like about Nespresso Citiz XN7415

  • Lacks an integrated milk system on the standard model requiring an external frother
  • The 19-bar extraction pump operates with a high noise and vibration level
  • Capsule insertion mechanism can occasionally feel stiff or crush improperly placed pods
  • Removable drip tray and capsule catcher parts are not dishwasher safe
  • Minor post-brew dripping from the coffee spout
  • Some users note the coffee temperature could be slightly hotter

Verdict

The Krups Nespresso CitiZ XN7415 is a compact, retro-modern capsule coffee machine operating at 1260 Watts with a high-performance 19-bar pressure pump and a 1-litre removable water tank. It features two programmable buttons with automatic flow-stop for Espresso (40 ml) and Lungo (110 ml), a fast 25-second thermoblock heat-up system, an automatic energy-saving auto-off mode after 9 minutes, and a folding drip tray to accommodate taller glasses. Main pros include its speedy operation, high-quality crema extraction, space-saving design, and a decent used capsule container holding up to 11 pods. On the downside, it is restricted to Nespresso Original line capsules, lacks a built-in milk frother or display screen, and the minimalist drip tray can feel somewhat basic during cleaning.
