Regarding Espresso Lavazza has a great reputation and is well justified, fragrance & crema are heavenly and the taste is just as good as the Nespresso system.
Service:
The machine can be similarly easy to use as I know it from my Nespresso ago. The capsule is "thrown" at the top, turned over the levers and only forwards pressed a button. The empty capsules are collected in a drawer. The amount of water, however, can not be selected and the "Start" button must be pressed again to stop the water supply, otherwise the coffee is too thin for my taste. Very good contrast, I like that nothing drips. The machine is ready for operation after a short heat, works reliably and the volume is ok The drip tray can be easily removed so that even latte macchiato glasses fit under the spout.
Conclusion:
The Espria machine is easy to use, but offers little comfort and, above all, that the water supply can not be set, that bothers me a bit. From the optics, it is rather an inconspicuous machine, not as chic as a Citiz Pixie or the competition, but at least the metal bracket with the Lavazza logo is very stylish. For cars it would be a mid-range model.
Currently there are still a starter set incl separate milk frother and starter capsules for almost the same price as the machine alone. Espria + free milk frother + 12 capsules.
The Lavazza capsules have me pleasantly surprised, they are just right for my taste and the first that can really keep up with those of Nespresso. They are completely made of plastic, which should be better environmentally than aluminum caps.
Unfortunately, the capsules are not very common, to me they are getting nowhere. There are at least 10 different varieties, including 1x is decaffeinated. The Espresso Caffe Crema magicamente and Dolcemente have this best tasted me. So far I have seen the capsules only in a few large electronics retailers or online.
