I absolutely LOVE my Ninja Luxe Coffee Maker. I’ve had quite a few coffee machines over the years, and this one is hands-down my favorite. It makes rich, smooth, coffeehouse-quality coffee right at home. The variety of brew options is amazing — whether I want a classic cup, a stronger brew, or something more specialty-style, it delivers every time. The flavor is bold without being bitter, and the temperature is perfect. I also love how sleek and modern it looks on my counter — it feels high-end without the crazy price tag. It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and consistent every single morning (which matters when you’re not fully awake yet 😅). If you’re on the fence — get it. It’s worth it. Best coffee investment I’ve made in a long time! ☕️💛 as you can see. I added a little glass coffee pot that did not come with it and it’s perfect!

As my title says, it took me 3 tries to become adept at making the perfect latte, and the first didn’t count as you’re supposed to dispose of that one anyway. I’ll be honest, I was worried about becoming an amateur barista thinking the instructions for setup and brewing might go over my head. On the contrary, between the setup instruction manual and the step by step instructions through the BILT app (just scan the QR code and it’ll walk you through this part), it was quite easy to get going. In less than an hour, I had the machine setup and had brewed myself a perfect store quality caramel latte. The stainless steel design looks great and the unit itself appears to be quite durable. A sturdy design with enough weight behind it to keep it easily in place. I’m impressed with the various functions and choices available. It came with a basic recipe book that included various types of recipes, including cold brews. This lovely machine also makes an amazing cup of hot cocoa, for which I used a thick froth setting for the milk (Lactaid works just as well as regular milk, as I’ve become lactose intolerant over the last decade). I haven’t yet purchased a separate knock box for the coffee grounds, so until I do, I have an empty coffee can I keep under my sink for proper disposal. The coffee grounds come out with just a light tap. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase. I’ve always been a fan of Ninja products, and this machine is no exception. The Ninja Luxe Café 3-in-1 machine makes it easy to become an amateur barista in no time. As someone who spends roughly $65-$85 a month on retail coffee shops, this machine will pay for itself quickly.

I admit that once upon a time, I chased the dragon. I owned progressively more expensive grinders and espresso machines and pour-over machines...at some point, I gave up chasing fantasies and bought the Ninja Luxe Cafe Premier. I don't give five star reviews unless something changes my life. My friends, welcome to a five star review of the Ninja Luxe Cafe Premier. Every day, I awaken at 5am to get ready for my day. One of the very first things I do is make my first double-shot oat milk latte. Not every day, but often, a second cup comes around 9am. If I was paying someone, I'd be broke, and if I was doing what I used to, that would be 30 minutes. Now, it's ensuring there's water in the reservoir, beans in the hopper, and the pitcher filled with oat milk and in place in the foaming station. Then I push one button to get a perfect 18g of beans ground at the optimal setting per the system's brains - I do have to WDT, level, and tamp, as well as putting the portafilter in the unit. Then I push two buttons and walk away. A short three minutes or so later, I return to a perfectly pulled double-shot and perfectly foamed oat milk. All I have to do is assemble. While there have been a few times where I forgot to put the glass under the portafilter, this is otherwise so easy you can do it sleepwalking. So, now I get my one to two cups of coffee a day, at least as good as I'll get at the drive through run by teenagers with FAR too much energy for 5am, and while it wasn't cheap, if I simply add up all the cups I've had since I got it, it's saved me money already. Good coffee requiring barely any brains for well under $600 is a steal. SO much so that many more influential reviewers have indicated it's a shot across the bow of high-priced semi-automatic espresso machines. For 66% of the price of the least expensive alternative semi-automatic machines, the Ninja Luxe Cafe simply smokes the competition. And if you don't believe me, go research it. You'll find even James Hoffman grudgingly admires this machine. Simply put, coffee shop quality espresso drinks, requiring very little effort, making the indulgence less indulgent? Yes, please. I smile every damn day when I get my coffee!

This is a great machine. We've been searching a few years, found this machine that's not $600 or more and I love it. It was a gift for a special day from my husband. If you are looking to buy a great espresso, cold brew, and regular coffee drip too!, for a gift this is it. It grinds, tells you what the recommendations are, programs itself to know what you like, and cleans itself. It comes with the utensils and booklet & easy to do recipes. It does not come w/ the old grinds box but they have that too. Oh & comes with a topper. If you take care of this machine and do what it says, you will have this a long time. The company stands behind this product which is a plus. I still have my Keurig for the need to get ready in a hurry mornings but love the Ninja for that espresso. I give this machine 5 stars for price, what it can do and quality.

The Ninja Luxe Café 3-in-1 has completely transformed my daily coffee ritual into something I genuinely look forward to. This machine feels less like an appliance and more like a personal barista living on my countertop. Espresso comes out rich, velvety, and perfectly balanced with a crema that rivals café quality. Drip coffee is smooth and flavorful without bitterness, and the cold brew? Shockingly good—clean, bold, and refreshing without the long wait. What truly sets this machine apart is its versatility and thoughtful design. Switching between brew styles is intuitive, the controls are user-friendly, and cleanup is refreshingly easy. It saves counter space, money, and time while delivering premium results every single cup. Whether you’re a casual coffee drinker or a full-on caffeine connoisseur, this machine adapts effortlessly. I can confidently say this is one of the best kitchen investments I’ve ever made. Ninja absolutely nailed it.

I’ve got a bad habit of overpurchasing kitchen appliances. Even great ones like the Instant Pot don’t get as much use as the allocated space should require. Enter my coffee dilemma. Tend to have coffee every day. Have stuck to single cups for the past couple decades, started with Keurig machines using metal refillable cups, alongside Nespresso original line with third party capsules. Gave away the Keurig in favor of a simple #2 “over cup” drip coffeemaker from OXO which was nice and tiny and simple. Kept the Nespresso but used rarely since it always fell short of coffee store coffee and I always buy too many capsules. Did appreciate the ability to choose exactly the coffee and caffeine level as well as quick brew and cleanup. Now to this Luxe. Priced used mint at a price that, alongside all the people raving crazy about it, decided to give it a chance to disappoint me. Fortunately or unfortunately, turns out this Ninja Luxe is actually very impressive, fun to use, and makes a pretty good latte (and probably other things if I were more motivated). So I ended up keeping it. The coffee hopper and grinder is great. Pretty easy to follow, somehow they magically tell you how much to set the grind for and it seems to work right. If I were to design the perfect machine I’d have two hoppers- one for regular and one for decaf, but that’s just me. I can grind decaf beans elsewhere and somehow finagle them into the dual holder and it seems to work well. But the Luxe weighs the coffee and manually filling it doesn’t do that. It’s a little hard to mount the coffee onto the machine, find myself having to try a few times to find the hole. Sometimes it’s pretty tight screwing it on, and other times it’s natural and easy. Usually a near perfect 2 ounces come out, but sometimes it’s only a little over one- same beans and same grind as before. That’s kind of odd, but I just pull a second shot of water through the grind. I love the frother on this thing. Really well designed, put the milk in, lift the wand and place it down, then put the wand back in. Push a button and it makes beautiful froth. Though it could have a little more foam to it, drinks tend to be light on foam even on high setting. Water bin is large enough for pulling many cups. I’ve tried making brew with the included quad cup and it’s far too strong, guess this thing is all about Americanos if you want a straight cup of coffee. But The storage, function, design of this is really a work of art. On the side is the funnel and tamper, easily accessible and stored away. I bought a third party silicone cover for the top of this for around $15 bucks, it covers everything neatly except leaves the coffee bin alone. This allows storage and even tamping to take place on top, in a small kitchen that’s handy. All-in-all, super happy with lattes and mochas every day, and this is fun to use. Not as fast as the Nespresso but close enough and the cleaning is not very involved. Main pain is cleaning the wand right, I just use a wet sponge then purge it into water in the jug. I do notice that the water tray fills up more often than expected, and pulling it out then dumping into the sink is precarious, always spill water and usually also drop the part beneath the espresso spout area. I’m selling off or donating my Nespresso machines, and I keep the OXO single cup in the cabinet for guests or my own occasional drip coffee urges. Nice thing is I can just turn on the Ninja to grind beans for the drip. Don’t think I’d have paid retail on this, but for the price I paid on a mint used one, around $300, this is a luxury that feels decadent to have available for a coffee drinker and sometimes host. Hopefully all the computer and mechanical ballet going on with this machine holds up several years, it’s something I never thought I’d spring for but happy I did.

This machine has completely upgraded my coffee routine. The Ninja Luxe Café 3-in-1 makes espresso, drip coffee, and cold brew all in one, which is incredibly convenient. The integrated grinder is a huge bonus—freshly ground beans make a noticeable difference in flavor, and everything feels easy and well thought out. It heats quickly, the controls are user-friendly, and the coffee comes out smooth and consistent every time. Whether I want a quick cup in the morning, an espresso pick-me-up, or cold brew for later, this machine does it all without taking up extra counter space. If you’re someone who loves variety or wants café-quality drinks at home without multiple machines, this is a great investment. Highly recommend for busy mornings and coffee lovers alike.

I wish I had bought this years ago. Super easy to use, perfect coffee ever time. Literally does every kind of coffee and foam you could want- delicious every time. I have completely stopped buying coffee from coffee shops. My whole family uses and loves it.
