Ninja Specialty Fold-Away Frother (CM401) Coffee Maker, Single Serve to 10 Cup (50 oz.), Glass Carafe

The design stood out, so I decided to give it a try when the ol' Hamilton Beach packed it in. After almost a year of use, I'm quite satisfied with it. The brew options are great; love being able to do a cup or two. Adjusting the duration and temp of the heating pad it nice; too many of those things burn way too hot. Its quiet and fast; with a polite little beep to tell me that its coffee time!

Muy buen producto; al principio me marcaba limpieza muy seguido, lo limpié dos veces y ya se quitó; pero funciona y hace un café muy bueno y a temperatura excelente

Imagine spending $400 on a drip coffee maker and throwing it out in less than a year. Yeap, replaced a Moccamaster with a Ninja Specialty and I could not be happier. Love coffee, mostly drink 4-6 cups of freshly ground coffee a day. I had an older basic Ninja for several years before giving it to my son and wife, thinking it was a win win, so that when I visited I could enjoy a great cup of coffee, while at home I thought I would upgrade to a superior coffee machine (Moccamaster recommended by Wirecutter). The Moccamaster was a rip off. Could not fathom spending that kind of money, just to throw it away. Right? Tolerated it for less than a year then couldn't stand it anymore. In the garbage it went. Lesson learned. Ninja Specialty surpasses my expectation. First it makes excellent coffee. Can choose classic or bold, cup, mug, half or full pot, and the machine adjusts accordingly. The ease of use now is great, don't have to pull the machine out from under the cabinet anymore since the filter holder pulls out the front area. The water reservoir can also be removed from the side and be filled or washed. Has its own scoop that shows how much coffee is recommended depending on the brew cycle. Have not tried the frother yet. Another improvement is that if you want to grab a cup before the brew finishes you just move a lever to the left, which pauses the brew, this is important because all the machines I ever had, when you pull the carafe out, some coffee drops still drip on the hot plate which fizzles and stains the base. What a great great well thought out and tested machine. Highly recommend! Ninja appears to build products that are built around what their customers want while others appear to build products based on profitability and greed, using their brand well initially as a trap then turning their goods into garbage and charging excessively for inferior products. Again, lesson learned.

Just a good, reliable, well built coffee machine. Nothing overly fancy, it makes good coffee and looks good on my kitchen counter. Purchased in July 2024, haven’t had a single issue as of Feb 25/25.

Been using this daily for about a year now. Perfect coffee maker. It’s essentially an automatic pour over (with multiple water streams instead of just one), and it’s extremely easy to use and clean. Cleaning just requires lifting and dumping the bag of grounds in the trash; the grounds holder is extremely easy to remove from the machine. Water tank holds plenty of water and is easy to fill. I did an absurd amount of research into an automatic pour over (to replace k-cup dependency) and this product checks all the boxes. I was willing to drop $$$ for the super expensive ones, but none of them match the level of quality / convenience. Flawless. Pair with a grinder and it becomes quicker and easier than a k-cup machine. And the quality is as close as you’ll get to a hand-made pourover.
