Ninja Luxe Café Pro Series, Espresso Machine, Drip Coffee, Cold Brew, Hot Water, Integrated Tamper, Built-in Grinder, Hands-Free Frother for Cappuccinos, Lattes, Americanos, Dairy or Non-Dairy, ES701

I had never made Espresso or a Latte in my life before purchasing the Ninja es701. This machine made doing so child's play. The built in Barista helps configure the machine for the drink you want to make. Our coffee drinks are turning out great and are every bit as good as the high-end coffee shops. Clean up is easy, especially with the auto-purge for the frother. Footprint isn't much bigger than our old K-cup machine. Recommend also buying the Ninja knock box for removing coffee pucks. Much easier and cleaner than attempting to do so into a trash can. We are very satisfied with how well this machine is working and we now enjoy good tasting coffee.

OMG, I LOVE this machine! I've had it just a few days and I am so impressed by the coffee drinks it makes. The machine is absolutely stunning and beautiful. It's solid and feels high quality. The thing I'm most impressed with is how fabulous the milk frother is. You don't have to keep moving your arm around to froth half and half or milk; it spins the liquid automatically by itself. I've been stuck on cappucinos since I got it. I am coming from a super-automatic where it not only tamps but dumps the pucks into a container for you. The Pro version has an assisted tamper built in; so no measuring and weighing coffee grinds. NO MESS all over the counter! For the additional 100. it is SO WORTH upgrading to get this model for this feature alone. All you need do is pull the tamper lever twice and it's tamped and ready to brew. Every cup of espresso comes out the same! SO worth the extra money. The only thing is now you need a knock box to dump the pucks into, but that's a small price to pay for such an exquisite espresso machine. I love the hot water feature too. And I haven't even tried the cold brew feature. The espresso comes out with a wonderful crema and the froth lets you adjust from thin to thick! After most recently using a coffee pod system I have a new love of coffee again. I'm really enjoying this and think I'll go have another cappucino! YUM, it's just fabulous and it's very well thought out and easy to learn how to operate it. Bravo Ninja!

Overall it has been an excellent experience! We are fortunate to have a daughter that worked for Starbucks so she figured out everything right away. For everyone else, like myself, it took a few days to get used to it. I prefer the taste of the coffee over Keurig pods any day of the week. My daughter makes lattes and cold brew coffee drinks that would rival any coffee house! Anyone she makes a drink for immediately says I have to get one of these! The ability to grind beans and then brew fresh coffee is awesome! I would say the only drawback is having to empty the bottom water tray. Our coffee bar is across the kitchen so we have to walk all the way across the room to dump it without spilling. Other than that, the water reservoir holds a good amount of water, the water temperature is on point, and the taste of the coffee is amazing!

I researched extensively before buying this espresso machine. I came across a number of reports of defective machines but decided to take a chance based on Ninja’s reputation. I’m so glad I did! The machine is extremely solid and well built. It can make everything from regular coffee to espresso to iced coffees. This is a very sophisticated machine and reading the manual is essential for a good result. The coffee produced smells and tastes amazing. The milk frother works better than any frother I’ve had before. The bean hopper holds a large amount of coffee beans which I appreciate. I find the speed of the machine to be good and comparable to other espresso machines I’ve had. I’ve seen reports of the coffee produced being too hot or too cold but mine has been perfect for me for each type of drink. Given the many different types of coffee beverages this machine makes with ease, I highly recommend it. In fact, I went to stay with relatives for a month over the holidays and I took the machine with me!

I have been making my espresso at home every morning with a breville machine for five years. I decided to upgrade because I was drinking hot lattes more often and I was going to take my current machine to work. No chose this machine because of the quad shot option and when asked I was led to believe that it would froth milk and brew coffee simultaneously (it does not). This would be a good option for someone who wants to think they’re drinking fancy espresso drinks but doesn’t actually care about flavor or quality. It says the grinds are measured by weight which I determined was false the very first cup because it was somehow still set to double when I started the grind process then when I switched it to luxe it overfilled. If it was measuring by weight that wouldn’t have been possible. The quad shot makes an awful watered down shot of espresso that’s probably much more than twice the volume of a double shot and it leaves the grounds wet with water on top which shouldn’t happen. Theres also way more room at the top when using the luxe/quad basket than there should be which could be causing this. The milk frother is interesting but instead of frothing it’s basically just adding a bunch of water. I use half whole milk and half creamer and it’s fairly thick on its own. I could tell looking at it during the frothing process that it was getting watered down and that’s exactly how it tastes. Even on the highest setting it just tastes very watered down and extremely hot. I chose this machine to save myself time and effort in the mornings especially when I wanted hot coffee instead of iced and it somehow takes even longer than brewing two double shots and frothing the milk by hand. If it actually made good coffee I would have kept it or taken it to work but I’ve tried every setting imaginable and it’s just bad. If I could give this item negative stars I would. If you’ve made it this far and you’re wanting good home brewed espresso i recommend the breville machines, they work great and are the same price.

I can't say how pleased I am with this espresso machine. It is so intuitive and easy to use. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. When I was looking for an espresso machine, I looked at this one and one from another company. As it turned out, I went with the other one. That machine malfunctioned within 7 months of the purchase date. After going back and forth with phone calls and sending the unit back for repair, they sent it back to me with a different problem. I contacted that company again. They sent me a new one and now after another 4 months, the water pump went out of it. I gave up and decided to purchase the Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro Series Espresso Machine. I have been completely pleased with the Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro from day 1. This machine tells you what the bean grind number should be, brews a perfect espresso, allows you to choose the texture of the froth and then automatically cleans the frothing wand after use. There is no guessing as the Ninja will not allow you to move to the next step if you have missed anything or have done something wrong. My only regret is not going with Ninja in the first place. I own several Shark/Ninja products. They are reliable, their customer service is top notch, and they make sure you are satisfied with their product. I have learned my lesson and will stick with the quality of Ninja products. Absolutely exceptional!

I am so impressed and pleased with this machine. I wanted to wait after two months of use before providing my humble input. I was willing to spend up to $1,500 for a new machine, especially since the last one I had was during my early 30’s and things have improved significantly with the new machines. The Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro has high ratings and reviews from Baristas, the price was actually and surprisingly acceptable. I ran the clean cycle at one month, takes 6 minutes and today, month two, I ran the descale function - 90 minutes. The Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro series does both efficiently and not messy, big, big plus. Coffee tastes better after. The machine is built very well, has all the features I was looking for, coffee beans dispenser, grinder, tamper, inside scale, top hot plate, hot water dispenser, milk frother. Keep the machine clean, use fresh beans and enjoy it. Daily, I use the espresso side, while my spouse uses the classic, drip side. We average 3 servings each a day for a total of 6 together. Coffee always tastes great. Ninja Luxe Cafe Pro is perfect for me. I highly recommend it.

It is the best coffee machine I’ve ever had and I’ve had a rainbow of them however it could do better on the Crema of the espresso as it is not very cream thick, but everything else is great especially the frother, it takes away that has work to make great cappuccinos and incredible chilled coffee drinks! The materials of it look really good even though it’s not stainless steel the whole thing and it does have several parts that are made out of PVC. I think the cost is a little high, but I guess with everything that it comes with, including the semi automatic tamper is also a super convenient feature, you can see it’ll last you for years. The only downside to it is that the use of water is quite a lot so you have to be emptying the tray constantly after you make around to good drinks. I think ninja should look into integrating a rubber doing for discharging this water into your sink and that would solve the problem! The coffee quality depends on what coffee beans you use but as far as functionality with the beans, it’s great the brew speed, coffee, quality, and heat level of it are great as well. The capacity you get on each beverage is also great and especially by the fact that you can choose from Ristretto, espresso, Lungo and Americano among other to choose from. It also gives you automatically the number that you should match to the machines suggestion in order to have the perfect grind for your choice of drink. Last but not least it comes with Storage for your coffee, tools so they are entirely hidden from site inside the machine on the right side. The only downside this machine has is the fact that it accumulates a lot of water as the byproduct of making the different coffee choices. It should come with a drain tube to go directly into the sink or spout! The counter space it takes is a little bit chunky but against having an espresso machine and a drip coffee machine it’s a win-win! I think it’s a great upgrade from the last Ninja, but the pro series is incredible!

A Ninja Luxe Café Pro Series superou todas as minhas expectativas. A qualidade do espresso é incrível: extração consistente, sabor encorpado e uma crema que rivaliza com muitas cafeterias profissionais. O sistema Barista Assist facilita muito a vida, ajustando a moagem automaticamente e ajudando a encontrar o ponto ideal para cada grão. A máquina é rápida, intuitiva e muito estável — cada bebida sai igual à anterior, o que mostra o cuidado no design e na tecnologia. A steam wand é potente e produz uma microespuma cremosa, perfeita para cappuccinos e lattes. É exatamente o tipo de espuma que eu antes só conseguia em cafeterias especializadas. Outro ponto forte é a facilidade de manutenção. Os ciclos internos de limpeza são guiados, a interface explica tudo de forma clara e o processo é muito simples. Nunca tive problemas de entupimento ou variação de sabor. Além de tudo isso, o design é lindo, moderno e robusto. Dá aquela sensação de produto premium mesmo — parece peça de barista profissional dentro de casa. Depois que comprei, passei a preferir fazer meu café em casa ao invés de comprar fora. A Ninja realmente elevou meu padrão de café diário. Recomendo demais. Vale cada centavo!

La función de Agua Caliente no funcionaba, "escupía" el agua como si tuviera aire, así que la devolví.
