Can we price great coffee? It turns out we can. David Beckham led us to a game-changing coffee machine with a cool $750 price tag, and it makes some of the best beverages we've ever tasted.
The celebrated soccer player collaborated with Nespresso to advertise the coffee powerhouse's Vertuo Creatista model. This sleek, stainless steel machine is one of the brand's most luxurious single-serve coffee machines. While the features like a barista steam wand and three milk temperature and texture levels, it's clear the machine offers a top-tier experience – one that our resident coffee expert, Laura Honey, says is worth it (yes, really).
Honey, recently tested the Nespresso Vertuo Creatista, so we got the inside scoop on the machine. She has tested many of the best coffee makers of the year, but above all, she has many thoughts on Beckham's go-to model.
Called 'the best single-serve coffee machine on the market' by H&G's coffee expert, this stainless steel coffee machine is both beautiful and effective. With luxury features like an integrated milk wand and customizable milk settings, it's no wonder that Beckham is pleased to put his name to this machine.
'It's no surprise that Beckham loves this machine; they're both suave, slick, and incredible at what they do. If you like luxury, you’ll love this,' said Honey. 'Nespresso’s Creatista is one of the most exciting models they’ve ever released.
As an appliance aficionado and lover of language, Laura is at home eCommerce editing. Whether she's cathartically cleaning, mass baking, or gardening outside, she's always thinking about what products would be useful and helpful.
After graduating from Oxford University, Laura worked in luxury retail. Always an advocate for quality and style over quantity and fads, she's eager to lend a critical and considered perspective on what’s worth the investment. The secret to her heart is simplicity in products, in style and, of course, in your homes and gardens.
'I took the Creatista to our test kitchen as soon as Nespresso released it. Even though this is one of their more expensive models (of course, it's David Beckham's favorite), it's one of their best,' Honey says. 'If you're happy to splurge, I think it's worth the investment.' Though $750 is a lot to spend on a coffee maker, several features set this one apart. Plus, for a limited time, we're in luck. The machine is currently on sale on Amazon, so if we act quickly, we can enjoy professional quality coffee at a lower price.
'When I got around to making some coffee with it, this was close to faultless. My espressos were professional quality and packed with flavor,' Honey explains.
'The milk texturing technology is some of the best I've tested on a single-serve coffee maker because it has sensors to auto-detect the weight of milk that you're using, and then the machine responds accordingly,' she adds.
Secondarily, the beautiful machine will elevate the look of your coffee station. 'The Creatista looks a little different to their normal designs because they partnered with another coffee giant Breville (or Sage if you're from the UK) to create a machine which is all shine and stainless steel rather than thicker plastic,' Honey says. 'As a result, it looks like the kind of geeky machine a barista would own, but operating it is close to effortless. It's compact but eye-catching. I would be happy just looking at it.'
If you're a coffee connoisseur with a love for David Beckham, Nespresso's Vertuo Creatista just might be perfect for you – especially while it's discounted at Amazon. However, we can still follow in Beckham's footsteps with some more of our favorite Nespresso pieces – all of which are even more affordable (and available below).
