Machines
Nespresso offers a number of different machines for sale. The machines carry the brand names of well known kitchen equipment manufacturers such as Krups, Magimix, Miele, Siemens, and DeLonghi, but mostly they are manufactured by the Swiss company Eugster/Frismag, one of the world's largest coffee machine producers. Although based in Switzerland, Eugster/Frismag also manufactures in China under the Krups, Turmix, Delonghi and Magimix brands. Often Krups and Magimix store display models are "Made in Switzerland" (noted on the bottom of the machine) and others machines come from China. The Lattissima models are manufactured by DeLonghi. Eugster/Frismag (based in Amriswil, Switzerland) is little known to the public because the company is strictly an original equipment manufacturer (OEM). In 2000, Nespresso began distributing machines bearing the "Nespresso" brand.
In August 2011 Australian brand Kogan announced they were developing the "Ez-press", a coffee machine compatible with Nespresso pods.
