    Worked great until it didn't

    Loved it at first, but after a little over a year the capsule side stopped working and only brews water. Apparently there isn't enough water pressure to pierce the foil on top of the capsule. Called Ninja - the base unit needs to be replaced and they don't sell the part separately. Out of warranty of course, so only option is to trash this one and buy a new one out of pocket. I hate buying things that don't last. I did enjoy it while it worked, so if you buy it I'd advise you to shell out the extra money for an extended warranty.

    I was impressed with the variety of options and ease of use but I found the coffee that came out of this machine was pretty terrible. No matter what I did, even adding way too many beans for the volume of water, everything just tasted watered down. The iced coffee was undrinkable. I think it just runs too fast to properly extract anything from the grounds with most settings. I wanted to love this but ultimately it was a hard pass.

    Blown away with the quality

    I am very happy with the build quality and all the accessories packed in such small footprint. The material used is what you can find in machines much more expensive. The interface panel is very user friendly and intuitive. I wish it also worked with Kcups too but hey, you get espresso (4 different types) and regular coffee (3 different brews, in a single cup or 60 oz decanter), what else do you want a $199.99 USD machine to do for you! I wish it had a nuzzle for hot water too for making Americanos etc. but that's easily doable using the ground coffee function if you don't put coffee in the basket.

    Nespresso with options

    I purchased this coffee maker simply because I wanted to streamline the amount of machines on my counter. This solved my problem by combining a coffee pot (when I have company) and Nespresso maker in one. If I am in the mood for a single cup of coffee I just brew a single Nespresso pod 3 times, add a little creamer and presto, a perfect cup. Personally I will probably never use the frother since it doesn't warm the milk just whips it. I would recommend to others who love Nespresso but don't want yet another coffee machine on the counter.

    Disappointing Flavor & Poor Product Quality

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Pros: - all in one for espresso, coffee, and frother - large water reservoir - can hold a decent amount of used capsules - uses the original Nespresso capsules so you have more options to buy them Cons: - inconsistent amount of espresso made. Lungo initially was 4oz. Within a few months only made 2oz. Ristretto shots were just a dribble in the cup. Multiple cleaning and descaling cycles did not remedy. - eventually started to leak from underneath - the coffee is honestly, not good. Using the same grounds I always have this was a significantly worse pot than my previous coffee maker (which was also a Ninja) - had to swap it under warranty due to the leak, new machine was also inconsistent amounts of espresso - randomly would decide it was out of water despite having a full carafe. Both machines did this, never figured out the rhyme or reason. replacement machine did it within the first few times I used it. Cleaning etc did not change this. - flavor of the espresso is just OK. A little more bitter than expected. The same capsules get much better/smoother tasting espresso from other machines Overall: I ended up returning it and buying a completely different brand/model espresso machine plus a $40 basic coffee pot (for when we have company and need a whole pot) that makes MUCH better coffee than this model Ninja.

    I have a number of Ninja items (pans, baking sheets, oven, air fryer, etc.) that are phenomenal. Their coffee line, however, is a joke. I had a coffee maker a few years ago that died after 18 months. I bought this and had it delivered on Dec 12, 10 days later it left a pond on the countertop as several reviewers have complained. I also notice the reviews on other sites like Amazon are far more pessimistic about this product than they are here on Best Buy. I urge you not to buy this item, even at a sale price. I thought it seemed too good to be true with all these features for $180 and indeed it was.

    Drip-Stop Design Flaws

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have had 2 of these now after finally returning my first one due to the drip-stop not functioning correctly just to have the same issue on the second one. It's an unfortunate flaw and quite annoying flaw on this otherwise nice coffee maker. I'll be going with another brand once once I find a quality machine.
