Third-party reviews

What we like about Nespresso Vertuo Next 11706

  • Extremely easy to use with intuitive one-touch button operation
  • Centrifusion technology extracts rich, thick, and consistent crema
  • Impressive drink size versatility, ranging from single espresso shots to large carafe pours
  • Sleek, slimline, and compact aesthetic that takes up minimal kitchen counter space
  • Heats up quickly in under 30 seconds and brews coffee fast
  • Foolproof barcode technology dynamically optimizes brewing specifications per capsule
  • Features an integrated used-capsule container and an adjustable cup support tray
  • Eco-conscious engineering incorporating a significant percentage of recycled plastic

What we don't like about Nespresso Vertuo Next 11706

  • Proprietary capsule limit means it does not accept cheaper third-party or Nespresso Original pods
  • Widespread user complaints regarding long-term reliability, including recurring leaks and electronic errors
  • Does not feature built-in milk texturing, requiring an external Aeroccino frother for milk-based drinks
  • Manual twist-to-lock lid mechanism can be physically stiff and awkward to close
  • Small water tank reservoir that empties rapidly when making larger cup sizes
  • Brewing temperature feels slightly too cool for consumers who prefer piping hot beverages
  • Recycling the proprietary foil capsules introduces an extra chore for waste disposal
  • Temperamental and glitchy Wi-Fi/Bluetooth smartphone app connectivity

Verdict

The Magimix Nespresso Vertuo Next 11706 is a sleek, automatic pod coffee machine featuring a 1.1-litre removable water tank, a 1260-watt power output, and a fast 30-second heat-up time. Its standout characteristics include an advanced barcode recognition system and a unique Centrifusion technology that spins capsules at up to 7,000 RPM to blend ground coffee and water, creating an exceptionally thick, luxurious crema. The main pros are its versatile one-touch brewing capabilities—accommodating seven cup sizes from a 25ml Ristretto to a 535ml Carafe—along with its compact 14.2cm width, modern design made from 54% recycled plastic, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity for smart updates. However, some notable cons include the high cost and limited third-party availability of exclusive Vertuo pods, the absence of a built-in milk frother, and a manual locking lid mechanism that can be quite stiff to close.
