Customer Ratings & Reviews

We recently got the Ninja Dual Brew coffee maker to replace a Ninja we’ve had for a number of years. Our old coffee maker has served us well but we figured we’d try the newer version since we like to use K-cup pods on occasion. After trying it out for a few days I can safely say it is a huge improvement over the previous version we owned in just about every way I can think of. For example, the display and controls are brighter, more intuitive and user-friendly. The carafe is not narrow like the previous version which made it difficult to clean. The filter tray has a better design for easier cleaning and emptying of the used filter. My biggest complaint about the previous version was the brewing cycle seemed to take a long time, and in the morning I want my coffee! This new Ninja heats water and brews MUCH more quickly. I did not do a side-by-side test to prove this but I’ll bet the brewing time is less than half the time that our old coffee maker took to complete its cycle. When you want your morning coffee this one gets the job done quickly. The pod attachment is cleverly designed which is great for using pods when I want to. I also love the integrated storage holder for the measuring scoop on the side of the unit. I always know where its at so no more fumbling around looking for that scoop. Another great feature is the "intelligent warming plate". According to the instructions the warming plate is set to a specific temperature setpoint to avoid burning the coffee over time. Burned coffee tastes terrible so another great feature. Overall, its just a better design in every aspect that matters over the previous version we owned. It is a great coffee maker!

I've had other combination coffee makers before and have been disappointed. I was hesitant to think this would be better, especially since it's not a well-known coffee maker brand, but I love it!!! During the week, we use the single serve and on weekends I make a pot of coffee. Both turn out great!! I like that you can "steal" a cup of coffee before the pot is done if I've forgotten to set the timer the night before. It has multiple sizes to choose from, both for single serve sizes and for coffee pot sizes. You can also choose boldness, but so far I've left it on classic and I've been happy with it. It doesn't take up a lot of space don't the counter either, which is a big plus since I have limited counter space. Highly recommend!

Overall, this is a well made, easy to use machine that will brew you (whichever way you choose) a nice cup of coffee. A coffee machine now a days must (in my opinion) give you the choice and Kcup or regular brewing options, and this machine does it perfectly. The setup was a breeze and I was brewing coffee within 30 minutes. Excellent machine from Ninja. You will not regret buying this machine. Just do it!

The Ninja Dualbrew coffee machine with k-cup adapter could use just a few tweaks to be the perfect mainstream coffee machine. It can make up to 12 cups with the carafe pot and has a k-cup adapter. The water gets hot very quickly and after the initial setup there isn't that much you have to do to keep up with for the machine. The manual says the k-cup adapter does not fit aftermarket k-cup "cups" to use your own grounds so that was a bit of a hassle as Ninja makes their own filter for the Carafe pot setting but not for the k-cups. Speaking of that I had hoped they would've included the carafe coffee ground reusable filter instead of having to buy so many paper filters. The third thing I would've liked is the ability to have both the k-cup adapter and the carafe pot connected at the same time so I didn't have to choose whether I wanted to do either or and remove stuff from the machine. Finally it would have been nice if there was a milk frothing add-on to make more advanced drinks. All that said the machine is very solid and the knob and buttons worked as expected there is even a built in measuring scoop on the left side to measure out your grounds which is a nice added touch.

Bought this over the Keurig. NINJA Rocks it better! It doesn't use a reservoir to store the HOT water. That will help prevent calcium build-up when brewing. It's able to change the water tank from side to back. Love the brew functions and cleaning is simple. Both our parents use it as well when at the house. They love the ease. Side note: we did have a Keurig before and loved it until we find the same issues. (leaking water reservoir)

Makes great hot coffee. Good design allowing to use either pods or ground coffee. Doesn’t take up a wide footprint on the counter. I would buy again. Gave it 4 stars because of price.

We purchased this coffee maker to replace an older Ninja. This unit takes up less space on the counter top. There is a little learning curve with programing the size of pot needed and getting the correct amount of coffee. But we now enjoy the flexibility of choosing different settings to meet our needs for any day.

Coffee for one? Spending time with friends or family, we got you! I had been able to treat everybody as royalty offering ice coffees, rich coffees or pot coffee for Sunday brunch for mom and her friends. Easy to clean, silent and it doesn’t require too much space.

Makes great coffee by the pot or cup. Easy to operate and doesn’t make a mess. The switch to stop the coffee flow allows for a fresh cup of coffee while it is still brewing. The single cup pod dispenser provides a ground free cup of coffee. I would buy again.

Love this Ninja. Easy to use and clean. It brews quickly and have an option for Regular, rich and over ice.

I have had many coffee machines. Drip, espresso, and several keurigs. This Ninja is far superior to any others. The Ninja brews rich coffee, has so many size options, and you can brew an entire pot if you want to. I rarely brew a pot of coffee and it didn't make sense to have a drip machine collecting dust until the next family gathering. So, this one is perfect. Bring out the decanter only when needed. I am so happy with my Ninja. And you can take all the pieces out to clean, thoroughly. The K cups from a Keurig were just meh. This one takes the same k cup and makes them better.

This coffee pat is better then any Kuerig pot I have owned. Great coffee and you can use a pod or make brewed coffee with grounds, Ninja products are the best!!

We had a Keurig machine, and I was sick and tired of buying pods. I really like this machine because it combines both worlds, and has a large enough water reservoir to where you’re not having to constantly refill it. My only gripe is that it’s an expensive machine. It definitely does not feel like a $200 machine, but it doesn’t feel cheap either. I purchased it on sale and so should you. The program feature is very nice, and you have the option of turning the burner off after you’re done so the remainder doesn’t burn. I really like that there is a little red indicator light for when the Burner is hot. Overall, it’s a good machine, albeit a bit overpriced.

Love love love this coffee maker! I was a die hard Keurig enthusiast until my machine started giving out. This ninja coffee maker was on sale and I loved the features it came with for the price. I’m able to still use kcups but also make a pot of coffee which is perfect for my husband and I! I also love the brewing options this machine comes with, we use it everyday and I will never go back to a Keurig ever, ninja has been putting out some quality products, they have definitely gained a repeat customer!

Ive had 3 Keurig machines, the 1st was great lasted years, 2nd lasted less than 2 years and 3rd lasted less than a year. Happy to find the Ninja machine, features and the way it works is better than keurig. Unlike keurig the 1st cup in the morning always good also there is a difference between regular and strong settings. Time will tell how long the Ninja machine last but so far i am happy with this purchase. The only negative i can say about this machine is not having a light on the power button.

Purchased one year ago and it is an excellent coffeemaker. Easy to use and makes quality coffee with pods or When making a pot.

Best coffee machine!! Easy to use and fast to pour your coffee when you are in a hurry! Love it!!! Saves time!!

What can I say about my ninja? Well, I use it for hot chocolate. On occasion, but my wife uses it every morning for a cuppa coffee. Then she makes a cup of coffee to go. We have it set out in a little coffee spot area for guest And folks love to use it it’s quick makes a great cup of coffee. Stylish and who doesn’t like the word ninja I would highly recommend this product.

Love this coffee maker. Coffee tastes great, easy to use. Like being able to make one cup to a pot.

I love this thing. It’s easy to use and has all the options. Totally worth it.
