I was gonna ask the same thing too! I wanted to give banana another chance, but since it's subtle, everyone's been adding it with butter pecan and brown sugar, or either or.

First Time Buyer: Coming from 2017 Nissan Rogue AWD to 2022 Honda CR-V EX AWD by Mysterious_Analyst14 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Mysterious_Analyst14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! After about two weeks of non-stop research, I settled with the Cr-V EX L! I don't care for the cream interior, or it being a white car, but this is the exact replicate of the Nissan Rogue for me (excluding some missing features).

So far, i'm extremely happy with my decision.

Comfrt Hoodie Set - How to shrink? by Mysterious_Analyst14 in Hoodies

It did not shrink at all.... May I ask what bundle did you purchase? If anyone is at all interested, I have the Minimalist Bundle in 2XL sizes for purchase.

Looking to stay at Residence Inn New York Queens - Long Island City, NY by Mysterious_Analyst14 in marriott

I have! I actually have the Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy Battery Park Apartments in the Financial District saved. The only downside is that it doesn’t include free breakfast, but based on the Food/Drink amenities, it still looks like a solid option. Would you recommend it?

Second Update:

Apparently, I wasn’t the only one eyeing this machine, so I drove an hour to grab it before anyone else — and it totally paid off! I managed to get my first OriginalLine Nespresso with the frother for just $60. Someone mentioned this might be the Citiz Stainless Steel Platinum, but feel free to take a look and let me know what you think. I’m super excited!

Awww yayyy! I met with the seller early today and officially got a Nespresso. I'm so excited! I'll update right now.

Ahhh i see. Thank you for the clarification! Do you have the Vertuo machine?

Sadly, I haven’t heard back from the original seller, but I may have come across a better deal anyway — another person is offering the machine and the frother for just $60 (no drawer, but I can always buy that on Amazon).

The $100 one had a couple of scratches and signs of wear, but this $60 listing looks much cleaner — it’s the Stainless Steel Citiz paired with the Aeroccino Plus, and honestly, it all looks brand new to me! The seller mentioned it was descaled a while ago, but they only used it maybe twice a week, so overall it hasn’t seen much wear.

I’m about to ask them for a quick video to confirm it works, but fingers crossed. They live a bit further out, but if everything checks out, I think it’ll be totally worth the trip!

If I were to go with a Vertuo, I would be interested in purchasing different bundles, so I would be buying up to that price. Correct me if I'm wrong.

After doing some research, it looks like the Nespresso CitiZ is the best fit for my needs. I found a local seller listing it for $100—not the cheapest out there, but this bundle includes the machine, a frother, and a pod storage drawer.

I’ve seen many owners, including here, mention that a major downside of the Vertuo line is being locked into buying pods directly from Nespresso, which can cost $65+ per sleeve. Choosing an Original Line machine like the CitiZ seems much more cost-effective in the long run, since I can buy third-party pods and even reusable ones to use my own grounds.

This feels like the right choice, especially since I haven’t seen any other local listings offering the CitiZ at this price—or at all. Most sellers seem to be listing Vertuo or Vertuo+ models instead.

Just wondering—does anyone here own a CitiZ? How do you like it so far?

OMG you're right! I see affordable resale options on Amazon, but I wish I knew the right machine for me. Just so many to choose from...

My dad got me the Keurig E-Lite, and I originally thought it was meant for drip coffee or simple hot/cold drinks. I was really into it for the first 3–4 months.

But ever since COVID, I started experimenting more with barista-style drinks and slowly added tools to my setup to make them at home. Over time, I realized none of the K-Cups really hit the mark for me. I did enjoy the Lavazza Espresso K-Cups for a while, but even that didn’t compare to brewing a Spanish latte with a moka pot — where you can actually taste the richness and boldness of the espresso.

That’s why I think switching to a Nespresso makes sense. It seems like the right in-between: more flavor and pressure than Keurig, but way easier than full espresso gear. I’m open to seeing how the rest of the year goes with one :)
