Great value for the price! You get a nice variety of flavors, and the quality is really good for a more affordable option. If you love Nespresso but don’t want to spend too much, this is a solid choice!

This is the second time I’ve ordered the variety pack aluminum capsules and they have been great! Not once did we have any problems with them getting crushed or falling through. Great taste at a great price. About to order a third box, definitely recommend.

Really good capsules. Tried the strong ones by now, 9 and 11, and they are really good, rich flavor and strong aroma. Recommended for strong coffee lovers. The light ones are probably good too, but I did not try them yet.

I had the same experience as many: the coffee quality inside is excellent, but the aluminum pods are thin and cheap. They collapse rather than puncture. I thought about it and I know that aluminum gets "stronger" in colder temps. I tried chilling a pod in the fridge and it worked! The extra support allowed it to puncture. I now keep them in the fridge and they work beautifully. You may want to preheat your cup under hot water since the espresso is not quite as hot. Five star coffee with 1 star pod.

Espresso is very tasty, but the problem is on the ninja coffee pot when you do a shot it comes out with water in the beginning and then a small amount of coffee after that if you hit the button the second time you get a better shot so it just does not work quite right on the ninja coffee pot.This is an update, I really like the coffee and have figured out how to work around how they perform. They are at a good price.

I checked my Lavazza order history: 17 orders thus far, but alas, it's time to part ways.It's not that I've changed, but Lavazza has, and NOT in a good way.It may be that they actually believe all the hype on their item page; and maybe at one time in the past it was at least partially true.So let's just say that if you don't mind watery tasteless espresso, with Lavazza, your ship has come in.In Amazon terms, it's plummeted from 5 Stars to 1 Star, and the Star of Oblivion appears all but inevitable.Time to abandon ship.The cherry on top: now I understand why it sounds like the pump on my espresso maker is groaning like it's trying to extrude mud through a straw. My poor pump.I doubt that for the price anyone expects Lavazza to be Nespresso or Peats.But have you simply stopped trying to make a respectable (or drinkable) product? (Rhetorical)It used to be that the coffee was okay, but the pods were iffy. Now they both suck.Anyway, I ordered two of the Starbucks Original variety packs and so far (about eight pods) NOT A SINGLE DROP OF WATER in my catch tray, plus it's quite robust, concentrated, and flavorful.Kind of the way espresso is supposed to be, right?I like to think of myself as a loyal customer, but not when you mess with my ESPRESSO!*Brief Update* Nearly a dozen Starbucks capsules used so far, and still, not one drip in the catch tray.My provisional opinion is that the Starbucks capsules are very comparable to the Nespresso brand,if not equivalent in quality.

I recently purchased the Lavazza Espresso Variety Pack, and it’s been a fantastic addition to my coffee routine. These capsules work perfectly in my Lor Barista Espresso machine, delivering a consistently smooth texture and bold, rich flavors.I also appreciate that the capsules are made of aluminum, which not only enhances the brewing process but also makes them recyclable—an eco-friendly bonus. The variety pack is great for exploring different intensities, from light to dark roasts, depending on my mood.Pros:Smooth texture and excellent flavorCompatible with Lor Barista and Nespresso machinesRecyclable aluminum capsulesGreat variety of roastsHaven't found any cons as of yet.

UPDATE: Lavazza and Amazon moved with great speed to fix the labeling error. Amazon quickly issued a refund for the incorrect box (with no necessity to return, which I thought was classy.) Lavazza also fulfilled the original order with the correct variety pack.As everyone knows, it's a challenge to find an affordable substitute for Nespresso Original Line capsules. Poor coffee quality, capsules that fail, "aluminum" capsules with a paper around the seal that clog the machine. Lavazza's new aluminum capsules perform like original Nespresso. The only variety I didn't like with the light roast Lungo, but I'm not a fan of light roasts. I don't care for citrusy aftertaste, which was very low or non-existent in the Lavazza varieties.I have found my Nespresso substitute, and kudos to Amazon and Lavazza for an excellent shopping experience.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I received a six-pack of all decaf and not the variety pack I ordered. Return or replacement requires going through Customer Service for this non-returnable item, because I was sent the wrong product. I decided to keep it because I like Lavazza decaf the best, and reorder the variety pack. I assumed Amazon just pulled the wrong item.Here is the reason for the Beware! warning: I noticed that the label on the box from the manufacturer clearly states that it's decaf, but the label on the item generated by Amazon IS for the variety pack. If you order around the same time as I did, you'll likely get all decaf and not the variety pack. A review seemed to be the only way to alert shoppers.Two stars because I like the quality of the coffee, and the error was not the fault of the manufacturer. I like that the capsules are now aluminum (I actually opened one - it is aluminum.) Not plastic, which I hate. I like that the capsules don't have that cheap paper ring like some other Nespresso off-brands, that break off and clog the machine. These seem to work as well as Nespresso capsules, but it's too early to tell if they all will work. And the price is great.I will go through the hassle of contacting Customer Service and alert them to the error. Hopefully they'll correct the wrong label. I already reordered before I discovered the error, but the Prime Day Price was just too good to pass up.

... and it's nothing you can't handle -- and for the price and quality, it's worth the slight hassle. The capsules have a tendency to fall straight through. Maybe 3 in 10 don't get "grabbed" by the Nespresso system. You need to hold the capsule as you close the chamber and make sure it sits properly. Also, it's labour-intensive to recycle the pods: I scoop out the coffee to go in the compost and put the plastic shells in the recycling bin.

Flavor: 2/5Value: 2/5Freshness: 3/5I purchased 2 x 10 packs of these based on all the positive reviews, but am very disappointed...THE BAD:Out of 10 capsules, only 7 of them worked. I have a Nespresso Pixie and the flow rate through these capsules is terrible. If takes 2 to 3 times longer to extract an espresso compared to original and other third party pods I've used. This ends up putting more pressure on your pump, forcing it to run longer, and in the end will shorten the lifespan of your pump. The 3 capsules that did not work were completely torn up at the top where the capsule is punctured. In addition the capsule do not puncture properly sometimes and you have to eject them and puncture them again... very annoying.THE GOOD:When you get the capsules to work they produce a decent espresso shot. Not as strong and smooth as other capsules I've tried; but decent enough to make a small Americano for your friends who are not espresso/coffee snobs :-)OVERALL RECOMMENDATION:If you ar we a coffee/espresso snob and want the best quality shot capable with your Nespresso, and do not want to deal with defective pods, then DO NOT purchase these.On the other hand, if you want to save some money and can deal with an average tasting espresso/americano then these may be for you, but keep in mind that some of them WILL FAIL, so are you really saving money in the end?

These pods have quite a few flaws, which surprised me, since Lavazza is such a large and knowledgae company. I will list my 3 biggest issues with the pods.The pods are too short. The length of the pod is about 3mm shorter than original Nespresso pods and other competitor pods. This shows in the end result as sometimes lots of water leaks to the water catchment tray.The plastic pod is not durable. The pod has foil seals on either end, which is a good idea, but the plastic body is so thin that it melts due to the high heat of the water passing through.The coffee is not Lavazza quality. I'm not sure what happened, but Lavazza seems to be using some coffee that is not nearly as good as their regular line of beans/ground. I much preffer Lavazza drip coffee. Nespresso pods are way better. And with a saving of only about 15 cents a pod, is it worth it?Like I said, you save about 15 cents per pod compared to Nespresso original. But it is worth it to risk damaging your machine which costs anywhere from $100-$500+, to save a few cents? I returned my pods.
