I have this coffee maker. It is absolutely wonderful. I love everything about it. I make cappuccinos with the Specialty Brew option and frother, easy-peasy. Brewing pots or individual mugs, hot or iced, is a joy.
I don’t see the hot water selector mentioned in the product description. You can set the dial on the side to Water and it will dispense boiling water in just a few seconds; and the water dispenser is separate from the coffee dispenser, so you never get coffee water in your tea or oatmeal. Ninja thinks of everything!
So this uses K-Cups?
How is comparable to the Nespresso machine from last week?
This thing is amazing. I’m so impressed by everything about it. I’m a huge fan of the brand because I loved all the little thoughtful details about this. I paid twice as much for the 12 cup version and I’m considering buying this one in bulk to give as gifts.
When our Keurig-brand K-cup brewer finally kicked the bucket we picked up this Ninja. It really is great. It’s very simple to switch between K-cups and regular ground coffee. The water reservoir is nice and big so you don’t have to refill it all the time. The frother works pretty well, but this machine is not really making espresso shots, so the “espresso” drinks are okay but not like what you would get from a real espresso machine. That’s not really why you buy this. It tells you when it needs cleaning and then runs a cleaning cycle to do it. This is a great machine and I highly recommend it.
