For most Canadians, the Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe at $94 on Amazon.ca is the Vertuo machine to buy, a 50 per cent early Black Friday discount off its $189 list price on Nov. 13, 2026. Step up to the Vertuo Up at $209 for a bigger tank, or the Vertuo Creatista at $999.99 if you want milk drinks.

Key facts
The Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe (Black & Gold) was $94 on Amazon.ca on Nov. 13, 2026, down from a $189 list price, with a 4.4-star rating from 3,769 ratings and more than 1,000 bought in the past month, according to the listing.
The Vertuo Up was $209 (list $299) with 4.3 stars from 91 ratings, and the Vertuo Creatista was $999.99 with 4.0 stars from only 20 ratings.
All four machines linked here showed "Shipped and sold by Amazon.ca" on the day we checked.
Vertuo machines only take Vertuo capsules, not Nespresso Original capsules. Amazon.ca’s banner said Black Friday deals start Nov. 19, and Black Friday itself is Nov. 27.
Nespresso’s own Canadian site lists a one-year warranty on its machines and says they are repairable, with replacement parts available. That is the baseline for every machine below, whichever retailer sells it. Prices on this page were checked on Amazon.ca on Nov. 13, 2026 and may change.

Ratings and review counts are as shown on the Amazon.ca listings on Nov. 13. The Vertuo Pop+ colours share one rating pool, so the 3,769 figure covers every colour of the Pop+ and Pop+ Deluxe.
Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe
No. 1, best for first-time Vertuo buyers: Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe Pod Coffee & Espresso Machine, Black & Gold. At $94 it is the cheapest way into the Vertuo system that Amazon.ca sells directly, and it is the model most Canadians are buying: the listing says more than 1,000 were bought in the past month.
The listing describes a compact machine with a metallic finish, six cup sizes (Ristretto, Espresso, Double Espresso, Gran Lungo, Mug and Alto, the last brewed over ice for a cold-brew style drink), Centrifusion technology that reads each capsule’s barcode, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for software updates. Owners praise the coffee quality and the no-fuss, one-touch operation. The most common complaint is noise and vibration while it brews, and opinions are mixed on value and size. Skip it if you want a large water tank or a quiet machine for an open-plan kitchen.

Vertuo Pop+ with milk frother
No. 2, best for milk drinks on a budget: Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Pod Coffee Maker, Liquorice Black, with milk frother. The same Pop+ machine, plus a Nespresso Aeroccino3 frother, was $119.49 against a $239 list price. That is $25.49 more than the Pop+ Deluxe by itself, and it has 401 ratings averaging 4.5 stars, according to the listing.
The listing also says a complimentary tasting pack of Vertuo capsules is included, with the assortment varying. The frother is a separate jug-style appliance, so you need counter space for two devices. Skip it if you drink mostly black coffee, since the Pop+ Deluxe is cheaper.
Vertuo Up
No. 3, best for households that brew every day: Nespresso Vertuo Up Coffee and Espresso Machine, Pearl White. It was $209 against a $299 list price, with 4.3 stars from 91 ratings. That is a thin review record next to the Pop+, so treat the rating as an early read.
The listing says it brews seven cup sizes, from Ristretto to Carafe, has a Coffee Creations button for concentrated brews meant for iced and milk-based recipes, a 1.4 L rotating water tank, and goes from off to ready in three seconds, with automatic shut-off after two minutes. It connects to the Nespresso app to customize cup size and temperature. Owners praise the coffee and the quick start. The main complaint is that residual water drips into the tray after each cycle and the tray holds little overspill, so you have to empty it regularly. Skip it if you rarely refill a tank and the extra $115 over the Pop+ Deluxe is not worth a bigger reservoir.

Vertuo Creatista
No. 4, best for milk-drink fans with a big budget: Nespresso Vertuo Creatista Pod Coffee & Espresso Maker, Black. This is the premium end of the Vertuo range at $999.99, and the only machine here with its own steam wand.
According to the listing, it has seven cup sizes up to a 535 ml Carafe, a temperature-sensing steam wand with three milk temperatures and three textures, and a wand that purges itself after each use. The review record is the weak point: 20 ratings averaging 4.0 stars. One Canadian reviewer wrote that the machine stopped working after its first descaling and that they got no solution from Nespresso. That is one owner’s experience, not a pattern, but at this price it is worth reading before you buy. Skip it if you want the cheapest route to a latte, since the Pop+ with frother costs $880.50 less.

How we chose
We searched Amazon.ca for Nespresso Vertuo machines on Nov. 13, 2026 and opened each product page to check the buy box. We kept only machines marked "Shipped and sold by Amazon.ca", and left out the Vertuo Next, whose listings showed third-party sellers (Project Clicks and Flyer Price) in the buy box when we looked. We read the listing specifications, owner review summaries and Nespresso Canada’s machine page. We did not test any of these machines, and we excluded the Nespresso Original line because it uses different capsules. Picks are ranked by fit for the question, not by price or commission.
Capsule costs and Black Friday timing
Capsules are the running cost. On Nov. 13 the Amazon.ca listing for the Nespresso Vertuo Discovery Bestsellers Variety Pack of 60 pods was $83.40, or $1.39 a pod, and the 80-pod Vertuo Altissio Dark Roast pack was $87.20, or $1.09 a pod. Over a year at two cups a day, that is the difference between roughly $800 and $1,000 in capsules, which is more than the cost of the cheaper machines.
On timing, the Pop+ models carried an "Early Black Friday deal" label at about 50 per cent off. Amazon.ca’s banner said Black Friday deals start Nov. 19, and Black Friday is Nov. 27. We cannot say whether prices will fall further, so buy when the price suits you rather than waiting on a guess.
Who should skip a Vertuo machine
A Vertuo suits someone who wants one-touch coffee and a thick crema and is happy to buy proprietary capsules. Skip it if you want to use any brand of ground coffee, if you already own a Nespresso Original machine and a stock of its capsules, or if you want true espresso with 19-bar pressure, which is the Original line’s job. For a bean-to-cup alternative, see our guides to the De’Longhi Eletta Explore and the Breville Oracle Jet.
Do Vertuo machines take Nespresso Original capsules? No. The Vertuo Pop+ listing says its capsules are exclusively compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines, and the Vertuo Next listing says it is not compatible with Original capsules. The two systems use different pods and different brewing methods.
How much do Vertuo capsules cost in Canada? On Amazon.ca on Nov. 13, 2026, the Discovery Bestsellers pack of 60 was $83.40 ($1.39 a pod) and the Altissio 80-pod pack was $87.20 ($1.09 a pod). Prices change often, and larger packs generally cost less per pod.
Is the Vertuo Pop+ loud? Owner reviews on the Pop+ Deluxe listing mention noise and vibration as the most common complaint, with the machine making sound as it brews. We have not tested it, so we cannot say how loud it is in your kitchen.
Does Nespresso offer a warranty on Vertuo machines in Canada? Nespresso Canada’s machines page lists a one-year warranty and says its machines are repairable, with replacement parts available. Check the terms on the retailer’s page for the exact machine you buy.
