Where to Find Nespresso Replacement Parts, From Breville to eBay

If a part on your Nespresso breaks, start by working out who actually built the machine, Daily Meal advises in a Nov. 12 piece on tracking down replacement parts.

Nespresso machines are made by Breville and De’Longhi as well as by Nespresso itself, and the article says going back to the maker is the safest bet for a part that fits. Breville keeps Nespresso parts in a parts finder under its Support section, and De’Longhi runs a separate spare-parts site. For machines Nespresso built, Daily Meal says U.S. owners have to call Nespresso, though some other countries can order online.

Past the makers, the piece points to Amazon, which carries both official and off-brand parts, and eBay for new and used pieces. It warns that off-brand parts don’t always fit, so check your model number first. It even passes along a Reddit suggestion to 3D print simple bits like drip trays and capsule holders.

Our take: the maker’s name and model number are usually on a label under the machine, so flip it over before you order anything. And before you buy a part at all, rule out scale, since plenty of “broken” Nespressos just need a descale. Our Vertuo descaling guide covers that, and our post on repair versus replace helps with the bigger call.
