Measuring 5.5 x 16.8 x 12.4 inches and weighing 8.8lbs, the new model is larger than previous Nespresso machines and also has a unique, rounded design. According to Nespresso, the design team took an eco-conscious approach to developing the machine, which is why the unit is made from 54% recycled plastic. This updated model also comes with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality, catering to those who wish to operate the machine hands-free. Like Nespresso's previous versions, this coffee maker will provide users with five different serving sizes: Espresso, Doppio Espresso, Gran Lungo, Mug, and Alto. Alongside the new machine, Nespresso has also released a new [automatic milk frother](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ninja-prestige-dualbrew-system) called the 'Aeroccino3'. Nespresso encourages customers to use the 'Vertuo Next' and the 'Aeroccino3' together in order to produce barista-style cappuccinos from home.
