Ninja Family
Have been looking at this model for over a year. We have a Ninja Keurig pod multi brewer but wanted the Nespresso pod feature. When it went on sale and the website offered another 10% off, that was the time to buy. Now with this unit and our Ninja Cafe Lux, I have all of my coffee bases covered! Love Ninja products!

Awful product and service
It broke on me a little over a year into. The electronics went crazy and it stopped working. Ninja would not replace it. Awful experience.

Not 100% satisfied
I've had this machine just shy of 3 years and already will not work..the water reservoir will not pump the water through the machine..for the money., I really expected more use/longer before tearing up...I love my shark/ninja products, so this leaves me to question the over all worth

Great all in one machine!
This coffee and espresso machine is wonderful! The drip coffee is delicious as is the espresso and I really like the milk frother! For my preference, I brew 2 Nespresso capsules for a cappuccino. It’s also important to know that you have to heat the milk first before frothing it. I enjoy the ability to make cold froth with this, but I would like if they would add a steam wand frother in addition to the cold frother (that would be amazing). All in all, I really like my new coffee and espresso machine!

Expected better
I purchased the Ninja CFN601 in August 2024, and this is the first time I have been genuinely disappointed by a Ninja product. Every small appliance in my home is Ninja or Shark. My air fryer, blender, vacuum, and previous coffee makers have all been from this brand and have consistently performed extremely well. That is what makes this experience especially frustrating. From early on, this unit has consistently dripped and leaked, and the ground coffee chamber retains moisture after each use. This creates a constant mess and, more concerning, a clear mold risk. We even purchased a reusable basket in an attempt to reduce the mess, but it made no meaningful difference. For a machine at this price point, this level of design flaw is unacceptable. The only function that has worked consistently is the Nespresso pod side. However, even that has recently started making an extremely loud noise during brewing. I keep the machine thoroughly cleaned and desccale it every month, so this is not a maintenance issue. Given my long history with Ninja and Shark products, I hope this is an isolated issue with this unit. I would really appreciate Ninja taking a closer look and helping resolve this, as I would love to remain a loyal customer.

Horrible disappointment
I bought this machine a couple of months ago. After 15+ years of using ninja coffee machines and only replacing the last one because I broke the carafe and it is no longer made I decided I wanted to try this one. It is horrible! 1st, if I make a full pot of coffee on rich setting with the recommended grounds, it floods. Hot water and coffee grounds out of the top. It is impossible to clean the piece where the water enters the grounds if floods and it floods daily. The drip stop DOES NOT work. The espresso part worked well for a while but now continuously says add water even when it has a full water tank. I have cleaned it per the instructions multiple times with the hope that was the issue but it should not require cleaning cycles between single uses and it doesn’t seem to help anyway. I am so disappointed because the espresso maker is so easy and convenient and tasty but not when I have to fight it for a single cup.

⭐☆☆☆☆ Disappointed With the Ninja Coffee Maker I really wanted to like this coffee maker, but after a few weeks of use, I’m pretty disappointed. The biggest issue is inconsistency—some days the coffee tastes fine, and other days it comes out weak or bitter even when I use the exact same settings. The machine also tends to leak a little from the brew basket, which leaves a mess on the counter every morning. The warming plate doesn’t seem to keep the coffee hot for very long either; within 30 minutes, it’s already lukewarm. For the price, I expected something much more reliable and better built. It looks nice on the counter, but overall, it just hasn’t lived up to the hype for me. Not the worst machine I’ve ever used, but definitely not worth the cost.
