I bought this online August 30th and it is already BROKEN. I am so disappointed. It began brewing about a "shot" of coffee, no matter which setting I put it on. I called customer service and they walked me through every troubleshooting step they could but came to the conclusion the entire unit needed to be replaced...GREAT! Sounded good to me...until he said I had to pay $21 to have my unit shipped back. Ummmm NO! I'm not paying $20 for something that didn't even give me three good months. Extremely disappointed- I guess it's back to Keurig

I've had this coffee maker for about a year now and it works great. It has many different settings and ways you can make coffee. You can make single cups or a whole pot with this coffee maker. I have found that it can be a bit difficult to clean. The filter where you put the ground coffee is also a bit difficult to clean. I had to actually throw mine out and use mini coffee filters from Walmart because my filter kept getting mold in it even after washing and drying it properly.

I went back and forth for months on whether or not to buy this coffee maker. Honestly, it was the price that kept tripping me up. I finally decided to bite the bullet and purchase, SO WORTH IT! This coffee bar makes the perfect iced coffee, hot coffee, and the frother is a great add on! I have zero complaints about this product. This machine even comes with a little recipe book to help you create your favorite coffee shop specialties at home. I know I have already made my money back on this purchase just by the amount I have saved making my favorite drinks at home instead of running to the coffee shop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ninja Coffee Bar Glass Carafe System CF090 is one of the best items I have ever received from the Spark Review Program. It makes great coffee by the pot or single serving cup It is easy to use and clean and is beautiful to look at. I would recommend this product that wants a quality coffee system Thank you Spark for such a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm instantly impressed by the Ninja Coffee Bar's ergonomics and plentiful features. It easily fits under my upper cabinets. I had to pull my previous machine out to fill the water reservoir or brew basket, but with the Ninja, I can now lift the reservoir off the machine and slide the brew basket open without moving the whole thing! One of my favorite features- the spoon! It might seem little, but I love that Ninja embossed a guide for # of scoops per type of brew on the spoon and that it can be stored right on the side of the machine! There's a variety of brew choices for all preferences: standard classic, rich so can add cream and not lose coffee's flavor, cafe forte is full-bodied that tastes great black, specialty is an ultra-rich concentrate, and over Ice brews cooler to go into a cup of ice without over-watering it down. Pretty cool! From my testing so far, all of the brews live up to their names. Some of the brews only brew in one size. E.g. cafe forte is always 8oz. But overall the flexibility in brew sizes is great- cup, XL cup, travel, XL travel, half carafe, carafe. When you take this coffee bar out of the box, there's a sticker over the size dial that actually tells you the oz. of each size. When you peel it off, the machine only has icons and names (which light up to indicate which is chosen). I wish the oz. were on the machine too. But you can reference the Quick Start Guide. I really like that both the carafe and single-serve cups fit in the same brew space, unlike my previous 2-way flex brew machine that had two separate brewing areas, therefore was much larger. The drip stop is another great little feature to keep from making a mess on the hot plate if you want your coffee right away. Overall I'm really impressed with the Ninja Coffee Bar so far, and hope that continues as I put each and every feature to the test!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ninja coffee bar system is so elegant and modern looking. There are so many choices on how to make your coffee. We have been using the brew a pot method. The removable water reservoir is very easy to take off the machine and fill up. All the moving parts move with easy and in a really modern way. I love that you have stop the drip so you can grab a quick cup of coffee before it fills the pot all the way up because some mornings you just can't wait. When you remove the pot there is a pull down lever so you can just fill a cup up at a time. The frothier is a fun device to have. The machine is very easy to use everything lights up so you can see and read the screen. The coffee stays hot for a very long time. The filter is easy to access and fill and remove after use. The machine is well made , nothing flimsy about it It is heavy and kinda on the large size but it takes up about the same amount of counter space as any other coffee maker. We are very happy with our Ninja coffee bar.

This coffee maker is hard to find in stores. All other stores have last years models. This one has 6 Brew Size Settings: Cup, Large Cup, Travel Mug, Large Travel Mug, Half Carafe, Full Carafe. I have about 6 different coffee makers from Expresso, cappuchino, to 3 different Keurig machines, and this is by far the easiest and best of all of them. I use the first Travel Mug setting (16oz) size. The temperature is 119- 200 degrees after adding Half & Half in a ceramic room temperature mug. I use 3 1/2 small scoop size per mug. The basket is easy to clean. Just rinse it out in the sink and rinse its holder out. No fussing with spoons to measure coffee or fit measured coffee into a small holder(like Keurig adapters). Measurer that comes with Ninja doesn't hold coffee in it. No static electricity, all coffee comes out of measurer. Just shake Ninja's Spoon in your coffee bag to get rid of excess coffee you have on spoon. Perfect measurement every time. I noticed something most coffee makers do not have. When brewing cups or travel mugs, not carafe, the water is held with the coffee to steep it like a French Press, before it goes into the mug making a better cup of coffee. When in Carafe Mode the maker is just a drip through coffee maker. The Cone Shaped(included filter) is a breeze to clean. One note of CAUTION! When set on Clean, the coffee maker will use all water in reservewa. I tried adding water when container was halfway through 1st cleaning cycle and Hot Water flow did Not Stop or reset for 2nd cleaning cycle. Water all over counter and it is HOT!!!. REMEMBER! ALL WATER IS USED IN CLEANING CYCLE NON-STOP!!! This coffee maker comes with a Glass Carafe, An Ice Over Pitcher, and the Built in Milk Frother. Hot plate only comes on in the Carafe Modes not Cup or Mug Modes. Machine is not deep so you can put Carafe and Ice Pitcher behind it on the counter. For this latest model make sure it has 6 settings on the Dial. Sam's Club has it on Sale for $129.00. Hope sale is still on for you. Has clock to set wakeup brewing time and stay warm timer. I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY MONETARY OR PERKS FOR THIS REVIEW. I can just say, "What a relief to get a strong, hot, cup of coffee with minimum preparation and cleanup." Get it! You won't be sorry with this latest model. Eddy, Fishkill, NY

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, I want to be clear that the only coffee pots that I've ever had have all been simple with maybe the added feature of being able to program a timer. So, after reading my instruction manual I commenced to washing the carafe and other components as instructed, set the time (so simple) added a filter and coffee using the included scoop which I must say is very handy and tucked right onto the side of the machine. I selected the amount of coffee for the machine to make, added the appropriate amount of water to the reservoir pushed the power button, (there are multiple choices for your comfort level, cup, XL cup, 1/2 carafe, full carafe and even a travel mug option) and then chose how I wanted my coffee to taste (I chose classic for starters) First pot was a little strong so I reduced the coffee for the next pot and it was perfect! I had never had frothed milk in coffee before until this machine. My husband ventured for this and made us each a cup of coffee with frothed milk using the built in frother (again, tucked neatly on the side of the machine until ready for use, see picture below) We are still experimenting with Ninja Coffee bar and are finding unending ways to mix and blend coffees plus using the enclosed recipes that came with the machine. This machine is very easy to use, easy to clean, easy to set up and is very attractive on my counter top. The instruction book is easy to follow and the recipes included are very good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love coffee...and we have tried just about any type of coffee maker. Some were too big, too small, too complex or just did not deliver a hot enough cup. The Ninja Coffee Bar Glass Carafe System is neither too big (see pic comparing size with icoffee, just a bit wider and taller) nor too complex since it has easy to use feature selection knob and buttons with clear labeling. The main features are: - Sizes are preset, just turn knob from single cup to full carafe and several sizes in-between - Holder for grounds is easy to clean and swivels out and locks in place very easily, no fumbling in the basket because of the big handle on side (see pic) - Hot and flavorful coffee - Carafe is easy to pour - Warming plate time is adjustable and it senses when a carafe is placed on it and then comes on automatically, which is pretty neat - Includes milk frother and measuring spoon attached to side - Easy fill and remove water reservoir that is clearly marked - When placed on counter in middle of room, carafe is accessible from both sides - Makes regular coffee or a stronger brew Husband and I like the clean lines of the coffee bar, and it makes a good cup of coffee. So why only four stars? - The touted single cup filter was not included, but I bought it separately on ebay. In the meantime I brewed a large single cup using a regular filter and there was some splashing. - Takes a bit longer to go from cold to hot than our dedicated single cup machine and the fold-out holder for the small single cup has a bit of a flimsy feel to it. - I am getting older and the markings could be a bit bigger for my aging eyes - Longer single cup prepping time: It might not be fair to compare a dedicated single cup machine to the Ninja Coffee Bar, but my one major gripe is that my husband makes his full pot (which he likes) and then I come with my single cup and a different type of coffee and that means taking off the carafe, cleaning out the filter, pouring more water in the reservoir, and resetting the size, and then putting his pot back on after I am done, but maybe I can beat him to the machine in the mornings...

My husband and I are coffee snobs & this coffee maker is by far the best! We've tried them all & nothing beats the Ninja Coffee Bar. We love trying fun new things with our coffee & this product allows us to do it all, while also allowing us to make just a plain ole cup of joe if needed. We love all of the different features - single serve, XL cup (my personal favorite), travel size, half a carafe, full carafe ... the frother, over ice... all of it! So many fun things & it really impresses guests when they come over. I would recommend this product to anyone in the market for a new coffee maker. Hands down the best!
