Love my Ninja DualBrew Pro Specialty

I bought this machine over a year ago. I was having issues the first 2 months. The machine will start throwing lots of steam, and sometimes it will stop brewing and will prompt me to “Clean” the machine. It was doing this frequently. So, I started reading the instructions and found out that the machine needed to be calibrated because of the altitude. So after did it, it started working perfectly with no issues of steam, shutting down and the”Clean” feature did not turn on anymore. I clean the coffee machine every month though. I use the pod adapter for my K-cups, and also brew my coffee using all different brew style. I haven’t had any problems since then. Hope this helps!

Easy to use with great features

I'm writing for a 90 year old lady. Originally she was overwhelmed with all the features. It took two days to get comfortable. She loves the features and how big the water container is. She uses both coffee and hot water features every day. ow and she didn't thank a home coffee maker could make a better tasting cup of coffee.

Love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with the DualBrew Pro. There are so many features in a compact but elegant look. It has a lot of power without taking a lot of space. The versatility of this wonderful brewing system gives many options when it comes to beverages. Even better is that cleanup is a breeze and can be washed by hand or even detaches to fit in your dishwasher.

Disappointed with the Ninja CFP-305 Coffee Maker

We purchased the Ninja CFP-305 coffee maker in October of 2022 with high hopes of enjoying a flavorful and hassle-free coffee experience. Unfortunately, my experience with this coffee maker has been quite disappointing, primarily due to the persistent issue of coffee grounds finding their way into my brewed coffee. One of the main concerns I have with the Ninja CFP-305 is its inability to brew a strong pot of coffee without grounds being present in the final product. No matter what adjustments or settings I tried, the grounds were always present, making each cup of coffee less enjoyable and creating a constant need for filtering. This issue was particularly pronounced when using the k-cup option, where the presence of grounds was almost guaranteed. Another letdown with this coffee maker is its inability to keep the brewed coffee warm for an extended period. Despite the promises of a well-insulated carafe, the coffee quickly loses its warmth within 2-3 hours. This limitation is quite inconvenient, especially if you prefer savoring your coffee over a longer duration or hosting guests. Furthermore, I have been unable to find a reusable k-cup option that works effectively with the Ninja CFP-305. The lack of compatibility with reusable pods restricts my choices and limits my ability to reduce waste. It would have been much appreciated if the coffee maker provided better support for environmentally-friendly brewing options. Despite these shortcomings, there are a few positive aspects worth mentioning. The Ninja CFP-305 is undeniably easy to use, making the brewing process simple and convenient. Filling the water tank is a breeze, saving time and effort. Additionally, the hot water only option is a great feature for those who occasionally prefer tea or hot beverages other than coffee. Lastly, the coffee maker's overall appearance is aesthetically pleasing and adds a touch of style to the kitchen. In conclusion, my experience with the Ninja CFP-305 coffee maker has been rather disappointing. The persistent presence of coffee grounds in my brewed coffee, the lack of longevity in keeping the coffee warm, and the absence of a functional reusable k-cup option have greatly impacted my satisfaction with this product. While it does offer some convenient features, they are overshadowed by the frustrating issues that persistently affect the quality of the coffee. All of this has us in the market to purchase a different coffee maker from a different manufacturer.

Great design and features.

I rarely write reviews, but I came back to this site to specifically do so. I LOVE this product! It far exceeds my expectations; and is so well designed with so many features that after a month of use, I am still marveling at its design. You NEED to buy this!

I like my Ninja! But, I wish it brewed espresso.

I needed a new coffee machine; a full featured one. This one isn't that full featured, in that it can't make espressos or lattes. It only brews coffee. The "Specialty" brew setting is misleading. It just brews the coffee at 4oz, there is no function to assist in actually making a Specialty coffee. That didn't stop me from buying it. I have a tea pot and pod maker, but it's nice this has those features. I like the milk frother, but I thought it would make espressos and heat milk, too. It took a few tries to get used to it's water economy (how it uses water vs how much brinds to use). To me using the small scoop for the RICH setting makes the coffee too weak for me. So I only use the big scoop. I was upset to learn it can't take Espresso grounds, so I had to exchange the Ethiopian Espresso grounds I had for Whole Bean. I actually enjoy this, and was looking for something this for awhile. I like the single cup tray, and the water heater for soups & teas. I just wish it had someplace to attach the K-pod adapter when I'm not using it. I also wish there were more recipes on it's parent site. I want to make the creative specialty coffees shown on the box. Glad I b'ot this. :D Sept. 5, 2022

Great product for multiple uses

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am extremely happy with this product. I am able to use it with k-cups as well as coffee grounds. It brews single cups as well as an entire pot. There is an option for iced coffee as well which has been nice. My favorite feature is hot water dispensing option. The water goes through a sore rate line once a switch is flipped and it is ready immediately as hot water to be used with hot chocolate, soups, or teas. I keep extra water in the holding reservoir for this purpose and it has worked great. I have had no issues with this product so far and am very happy with all of the features.

Fantastic Coffee Maker

Ninja actually sent us this to replace another model that malfunctioned. We could not be happier! It feels solid and well-made. All of the parts were easy to unpack and clean. The controls/touch buttons are smooth and easy to use. I love the different size settings for how much to brew, and the ability to do full pots and K-Cups. I use the auto-brew Monday-Friday mornings and it works perfectly. Honestly nothing bad to say about it. Will continue using Ninja for our Kitchen appliances and tools whenever possible.

The Best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best feature is that the coffee pot is much sturdier than cheaper models which to me is a safety feature as it is less looking likely to break when it is being washed out. All of part works fine. Switches, dials, and indicator lights have the look and feel of quality. Stainless is staying stain-free. It is very easy to switch from pot brewing to kcup brewing. I think my favorite added feature is the hot water feature. This alleviates the need for me to have a kettle on the counter alongside my coffee maker, freeing up much-needed counter space. I also love that this is a more compact model than the other Ninja all-in-one model that I previously had.

Best coffee maker ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE this coffee maker! It has so many great features and different ways to make coffee, but still small and fits perfectly on the counter. I love that I choose what size pot of coffee I want to make without any guesswork. I love that I can make iced coffee or froth milk to make a cappuccino. I love that I have to option of making a whole pot, or just one cup using a pod. The digital display is fantastic and easy to understand. The removable water reservoir is perfect and allows for easy water fill ups. I appreciate the hot water feature that does not use the coffee water line so I can make oatmeal or my son can have hot chocolate that doesn’t taste like coffee. This is a fabulous machine and it is my new favorite kitchen appliance!
