I've been using a Nespresso Pixie for about 10 years and finally decided to make the upgrade. I'm so glad I did. Coffee is hotter, machine is way to use, and the options for the style of coffee is great.

This is a great machine froths your milk to the perfect consistency depending on whether you want a flat white or cappuccino and the coffee is wonderful. I have been using an espresso type of machine for years and don't want to make any other kind of coffee.The create Tista is a great machine froths your milk to the perfect consistency depending on whether you want a flat white or cappuccino and the coffee is wonderful. This makes a perfect espresso with Crema every time.

Have had problems with this Creatista Plus machine after having it for only 6 months. Constantly says I need to replace steam wand even after cleaning wand and mescaline the machine. If I unplug it and leave it alone for a couple of weeks, it might work for a couple of days. Will not buy any nespresso machines or their pods again

Very disappointed in this machine for the price. I have constant descaling and cleaning the steam wand error messages that will not go away despite descaling and cleaning the steam wand. I have replaced the steam wand and followed the manufacture's troubleshooting guide, and it still has error messages. Somedays the machine works and somedays not. Very unreliable machine! Warranty on this machine sucks, especially for the price I paid. Do yourself a favor and Do Not Buy!

One of my best purchases ever. This is my first Nespresso machine but I wanted to also have my milk steamed the real way. I'm very happy with my purchase. I have no complaints at all.

The device is very good, only the water tank on the back gives a little water

This is our second creatista… love it until the heating element starts to go awray. You'd think for the money, it would last longer than 2 1/2 - 3 years no?!

I bought this a month ago and have had no problems with it. (I bought it used, and I understand that it had been working well for about a year before I bought it.) I had previously tried both traditional "superautomatic" espresso machines and the Nespresso + standalone frother combination, and this appliance is better than either. If you are on this page, you probably are debating whether to buy this appliance versus a smaller Nespresso machine and separate milk frother. The Creatista is the only Nespresso machine with a steam wand, so a major factor (and for me the most important factor) was that a steam wand is much better than a milk frother, for three reasons. First, steamed milk is not the same thing as warm frothed milk. I don't know the chemistry or physics involved, but there is a real difference. The pitcher-style milk frothers are okay in a pinch, but they produce a layer of warm milk topped with a layer of foam. They will not give you the richer texture of steamed milk. Second, the steam wand is more flexible than a milk frother. The automatic steam wand works well and can be adjusted to produce the desired ratio of microfoam to foam. Third, cleaning a pitcher and steam wand is much faster and easier than cleaning a pitcher-style milk frother. This is especially important if you want to make multiple milk drinks in quick succession. You can't do that with a pitcher frother, because a quick rinse will not remove the layer of scalded milk that develops on the heated bottom, and if you don't remove that layer, the next batch of milk will taste bad. There are also other reasons I like the Creatista, too, but for me the most important one is the steam wand. I want to reiterate that there is no other Nespresso machine on the market that has a steam wand. (Other than the Creatista Plus, which may be worth the premium in countries with 220v power, since that allows the Plus to run the steam wand and the espresso maker simultaneously, but is not worth it in the US.) If you want a Nespresso machine and you like milk drinks, this is your only good option. Fortunately, it's a really good option.

We love using are new machine. One button cappuccino and heats up the milk nice and hot. Want expresso no problem, it does this too. It's so sleek and beautiful on the counter.

I'm very happy with my decision to get this machine.
