We love it! It brews great coffee and quite fast! I love the frother. It works well. I also appreciate that I can also brew my own coffee, rather than Kcops. We use both. We love the strength options and cup size choice. I like my coffee strong while my husband like classic strength. We have not tried the iced coffee option yet, but will this summer. The space-saving size was perfect for my coffe bar! This is a great product.

I have been a Keurig user since they first came out. The Ninja Coffee Maker is my first non Keurig coffee maker. I’m glad that I finally made the switch. I love that I can make both pod coffee, ground coffee, different sizes and specialties. It delivers the quality and functionality that Ninja always delivers! To top it off, it is extremely easy to use and has the self cleaning function which is awesome!

I gotta say, this rivals Keurig and makes a quick and lovely cup of coffee. I've been a coffee drinker all of my life and since I'm old, I started out with a percolator. Eventually Bunn entered the home coffee maker market and I was hooked. Because it had a reservoir to keep water hot and ready to brew at the touch of a button, I got my coffee much faster. Years later, someone gifted me my first Keurig and that was it. I became a single serve coffee maker fanatic. There was nothing faster and no more burnt or stale coffee. Yes, yes - a French press makes the finest cup of coffee but I do not wake up in any condition to use a French press. I need coffee and I need it fast. So Keurig has dominated the single serve arena for quite some time. I have had a number of Keurigs over the years, as well as Nespresso machines and a few espresso machines. In fact, I currently have a delightful Nespresso Vertuo machine that I adore but I don't use heavily because of the very high cost of capsules and the relatively small number of decaf offerings. My Keurig was the heavy hitter until it recently began to just turn off randomly in the middle of brewing a cup of coffee. When searching for a replacement, I happened upon this machine by Ninja. I LOVE Ninja appliances! I have their vacuums, blenders, ice cream makers, a drip coffee maker, and an amazing air fryer with 2 baskets so I was intrigued. This one did offer a 12oz cup size and a rich coffee setting like my recently defunct Keurig so I decided to order. I chose the XL for the larger water reservoir (68oz), although it's still not as large as my Keurig had. When it arrived the next day, I was excited to get brewing but I did take the time to check out all the features (and there are quite a few.) First to mention is that you can use standard K-cups and brew a 6, 8, 10, or 12oz cup of coffee. But the surprising feature is that you can brew ground coffee and select a 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 18 or 24oz cup size! You will need to drop in the permanent filter (which stores neatly in a compartment on the side of the machine) but you can fill up a travel mug this way. Wonderful! There is also an Over Ice setting to brew an iced coffee and a Specialty Coffee setting that brews an intense, 4oz, cup of coffee that is similar to espresso in strength and is good for recipes that call for strong brewed coffee. Also, there is a swing out milk frother that's fun. It doesn't heat - only froths - but it's still quite handy and the wand twists off easily for rinsing under the tap. Finally, there is a little cup platform that can be moved up and down, depending upon the size of your cup. I don't move mine because I just use huge mugs. Things I don't like as much are that there is no water filter. I have very hard water in my city, which is death to coffee makers. I have an in-line water filter at my sink but I liked the additional filter on my Keurig so I didn't have to descale quite as often. There is also no option to set the brewing temperature. My husband loves very, very hot coffee so he's noticed this. What I love is that I can get a 12oz cup of coffee on the Rich setting that is wonderful and flavorful and faster that my Keurig ever did, even when it was new. I also like that it's narrower so takes up less, precious, counter space. The buttons on the top are simple to toggle through and select the setting you need. It's just a great little machine that I am using multiple times a day as there are 4 coffee drinkers in the house. I will update should it fail prematurely but so far, I think the coffee maker really suits me.

This Ninja single serve coffee maker has been such a smart purchase for our household. My teen loves those expensive coffee shop drinks, and I really wanted to show him that he can make something just as good at home without constantly spending his hard earned money. He actually invested in this machine himself (even found an open box deal that looked brand new and saved a few extra bucks), and it has absolutely paid off. We’re easily saving over $1,000 a year making coffee at home and honestly, it’s been fun experimenting with all the different options.What really sets this machine apart is the versatility. It’s not just a basic coffee maker it truly feels like having a coffee shop at home. There’s an espresso option for quick, strong shots (which Dad loves), a cold brew setting that’s perfect for iced drinks (a huge win for my teen), and even a built in frother on the side so you can make those café style drinks right at home. You can also use pods for convenience or brew your own coffee, which gives you total flexibility.The machine itself is sturdy, reliable,and the perfect size and we don’t have to fill up the Water reserve too often and really well made unlike the other popular brand name starting with a K which I won’t name ! It’s exactly what I’ve come to expect from Ninja. We own several of their products, and they consistently deliver great quality and value.This has been one of those purchases that truly makes a difference long term. If you’re looking to save money, cut back on daily coffee runs, and still enjoy high quality drinks with lots of options, I highly recommend it.

El paquete llegó muy rápido y la cafetera llegó en excelentes condiciones, con todos sus empaques originales y los instructivos completamente nuevos. Probé la cafetera desde que llegó. Encendió sin ningún problema y probé ambas opciones de preparación: café molido y cápsulas K-Cup. Las dos funcionan muy bien. Algunas cosas que recomiendo verificar si planeas comprarla: Primero, es importante hacer un primer ciclo de preparación sin café antes de usarla por primera vez para limpiar el sistema interno. Segundo, si vives en un lugar con gran altitud sobre el nivel del mar, es recomendable nivelar o ajustar la cafetera siguiendo las instrucciones del manual. Definitivamente recomiendo leer el instructivo antes de usarla.Tercero, si usas café molido, es muy importante usar molienda media para obtener mejores resultados. También es importante saber que esta cafetera utiliza cápsulas tipo K-Cup compatibles con Keurig. No acepta cápsulas Dolce Gusto ni Nescafé. Estas cápsulas tipo K-Cup se pueden conseguir fácilmente; por ejemplo, yo las encontré en HEB. En general, la cafetera funciona muy bien. Ya probé varios de los estilos de café que ofrece y todos funcionan correctamente. Es una cafetera muy versátil.La recomiendo mucho. En mi caso, el equipo llegó completamente nuevo y hasta ahora ha funcionado perfectamente. También compré el seguro de Amazon por si llegara a necesitarlo, pero hasta el momento el producto ha funcionado de manera excelente. Muy buen producto y una excelente compra.

Buenísimo producto y sirve muchísimo para cafés rápidos , las cápsulas son grandes no son compatibles con las de Nescafé

I use it with the coffee grounds - it brews nice rich saturated coffee. In my opinion much tastier than any k-pod coffee maker of a comparable compact size. The stone color looks pretty too.

The coffee machine is very good but beware in Britain the voltage for the machine is 120 volts and in Britain we are 240 volt. To return the machine is very costly, the cost of sending mine back was around £60. Amazon don't want to know about returning the machine, they just send you a label to print off and that's it. I can't understand why Amazon sell items on the market place that don't comply with British voltage.

Un diseño muy bonito
