I've used this a bunch since I got it in the mail. Love the espressos and the frothing systems. Easy to use and makes delicious hot and cold beverages. It was a little hard to figure out the manual frothing but once I did it worked like a charm. Haven't tried the drip coffees or the cold brews yet but looking forward to trying those features out as well. Love the size of this machine. It doesn't take up a large footprint on my counter. The directions were pretty easy to understand and the set up was minimal.

I absolutely love how this machine works and fits my kitchen aesthetic. Mostly just love that I can make cold brew and iced coffee with cold foam every morning or my husband can make his hot cup of coffee with right after. it does SO much - you don't have to have much / any skill. Truly worth every penny for the quality of coffee I get compared to the Breville I was using that I never knew how to dial in.

My husband bought this for us for Christmas because I’m a regular coffee drinker. He almost went with a cheaper one, but with the rave reviews he took a leap. We’ve had nothing but issues with this thing since we started using it. Inconsistent brewing strength, grind size changing during grind…. Whatever. But 60% of the time (and we’ve troubleshot EVERYTHHING) it brews about 10-30% of the amount. It’s an infuriating waste of money, coffee, and my last nerve. NOT. WORTH, IT.

I bought it for my wife for Christmas . We both love it except we cant use it before we go to work without waking up the whole house because the bean grinder is so loud. It would nice to be able to make a cup of coffee before work instead of having to buy a cup. Other than the grinder being loud its a nice machine and would be 5 stars instead of 3.

Amazing espresso machine that takes ALL the guess work out of espresso. I love not having to dial in the grind or dose or even have to babysit the milk while it froths. Makes a perfect cup every single time. I've had this machine for over a year and I use it every day (sometimes multiple times a day). My go-to is usually a latte, but on occasion I will make an Americano (using a separate kettle for hot water). I've made cappuccinos, flat whites, affogato, espresso martinis, frothed milk for hot chocolate, you name it. 10/10 would buy again.

Product was damaged as recieved due to the Bean hopper not being assembled properly at the factory. The hopper locking cams fell into the grinder because the screw in the locking handle was not fully installed. This caused a "install hopper" error. Been trying to get parts from ninja and have not been successful . Need a new hopper assembly, but only getting the run around. Seems to be a nice machine... would be great to use it normally.

The frother stopped working. We went through the warranty process and sent our unit back to be repaired. After a week with no coffee machine we received the same unit with the same problem. Now we are being asked to send it back again before receiving a replacement. Warranty process is inefficient and a massive inconvenience.

I bought a Ninja Café Lux 601 a year ago, it changed my life. I am the only coffee drinker in my house and it is perfect for me. I was using a Nespresso system, but I really wanted to upgrade my skill, for example be able to manually steam my milk, which this unit will do if you read the manual a bit. I learned about coffee balance, found a great local coffee roaster, who might just be my new best friend. I gather, the newer Ninja models are even easier to use, but I get to enjoy the aroma of fresh ground coffee before I make my puck and that is a feature that seems to me, would be sacrificed. LOL. Maybe they could put in a very slow fan that would waft the aroma into the room on their new system, turn on after the grind a before you use the lever to compress the puck. But now I am being fancy-full. Total reliability with daily use. Recommend.

This machine is addicting! I find myself sitting at work waiting patiently to go home to make a coffee! My husband and I have had it for 2 weeks and we absolutely love it. We have tried the espresso and cold-pressed features so far. The machine does an excellent job at letting us know exactly what grind size to set. The frother is amazing, I make cold-foam for all of my iced lattes. Best investment ever! It is also so pretty to look at!

I really wanted to love this machine, but unfortunately, it’s been a huge disappointment. One of the biggest issues is the milk system—it doesn’t heat the milk properly. Every time I want a latte or cappuccino, I have to microwave the milk separately, which defeats the whole purpose of having an all-in-one espresso maker. On top of that, the espresso shot is very inconsistent. I use a shot glass to measure and have tried multiple techniques, but I never get a full 2oz pour. It’s always around 1.5oz, no matter what I do. For a machine at this price point, I expected much better performance and consistency. I had high hopes and really wanted this to work out, but sadly, I’m not happy with this purchase. I wish I had gone with a different brand.
