Luxe Café Pro 4-in-1 Espresso Machine, Drip Coffee, & Cold Brew

This thing is awesome! I bought the renewed cafe luxe pro and it appeared to have only been used once. No major scratches or use on the item. This thing makes excellent espresso and even makes non dairy cold foam better than Starbucks can. Not too loud. Super user friendly and convenient. I would buy this as a gift for any coffee lover that wants a quality at home experience.

I loveeeee Ninja so much, it’s no surprise I had my eyes on the Lux Cafe Pro! This machine is a powerhouse and has everything you need to brew the perfect cup. One minor complaint but it was absolutely my fault: a piece of the plastic from the water reservoir cracked as I attempted to insert the porta filter into the brewer head (it’s a tight fit to ensure the seal stays put and normal). I do have my Lux Cafe Pro on a silicone pad, which makes the unit very slippery and my grip was on a horrible angle. Nonetheless, it didn't interfere with the operation of the machine and I’d recommend avoiding a silicone mat lol. The machine can get a bit noisy but it’s expected I suppose and doesn’t bother me. The best beans to use are locally roasted beans with a “roasted on” date. Taste is great, I have no regrets and love my new machine!

I have been using the Ninja Pro everyday for about 4 months. The machine is phenomenal. I am able to have coffee every morning and an iced latte or any other coffee concoction that I want when ever the mood arises. I will depending on the expresso bean you use, your coffee can be very potent. The ability to tweak the grind and strength lets you make a cup to your liking. Expresso is where this this machine shines. I am not a "drink a demitasse of expresso" person, but love being able to experience different drinks without the cost of buying them from a coffee shop. I find that I like my Ninja lattes better than my usual coffee shop and much better than the big chains. The machine itself requires weekly water refills and tray empty and clean. I do use bottled water since my tap water is very hard. All in all, I highly recommend the Ninja Pro Luxe. It was definitely a splurge, but I no longer but coffee shop expresso drinks and can get a quality cup of coffee, iced latte, cuppacino, americano, in my pajamas before work. Even though it is a fairly heavy, sturdy machine, I am considering purchasing another one just in case!

This machine is amazing. I wouldn't change a thing about it. My family has 3 brevilles. They're great, but I think this makes better coffee. Ninjas customer service is also amazing. They don't leave you waiting and take care of you. No brainer with this purchase.

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!

I absolutely love my Ninja coffee maker! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s surprisingly easy to use, even if you’re new to making espresso at home. One of my favorite features is how the machine recommends the grind setting for your coffee beans, making the whole process so much easier. I love being able to prepare a fresh, rich, and flavorful cup of coffee right in my own kitchen. The grinding, tamping, and brewing process is simple and convenient I’m very happy with my purchase and definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys freshly brewed coffee at home!

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.

I couldn't stand the tamper. I thought getting the version with the built-in tamper would make things easier, less messy, but I didn't think I would have to sacrifice the quality of the shots for it. I am no coffee expert, but I have seen enough coffee content to know that you want your puck of coffee to be evenly dense and flat. The way the coffee grounds are despensed, they end up in a little mountain in the porta filter, but the front side of the filter has less coffee than the back side. The porta filter is stuck in its spot until you tamp bc otherwise tons of grounds will fall out if you try to pull it out to evenly spread out the grounds. So you have to tamp it with this uneven mountain of grounds. Every puck I ever tested would have a soft spot on the front where there were less grounds. This will cause channeling, causing your shot to be under extracted. Not very "pro." I thought maybe my countertop was sloped, so I checked it and nope. Perfectly level. I added a ruler under the back feet to tilt the machine forward slightly; which helped the grounds distribute better, but it wasn't a complete fix and not a permanent solution. I would perfer the manual tamping version of the machine so that I can evenly spread the grounds before tamping. Also, I think something was wrong with the system that reads the grinder. Everytime I unplugged the machine (because I have limited outlets) and then plug it back in, it would change what grind setting it said it was on. Example: I use the machine and it says grind size 18, recommended size 18. I unplug, but leave the machine untouched and in the same place. I plug it back in and it says its set to grind size 17, but recommends 18. The machine wasn't reset; it remembered all its previous recommendations and settings, but it would say the grind size was one off from where I left it. This meant I was constantly changing the grind setting and the recommendations were always changing, even when I was making the same thing with the same beans. I did like the barista assist technology. I wouldn't have had a clue on where to set the grind size without that. I loved the auto frother. I could just set my milk to frother and I could walk away and do something else while the machine worked. Its pretty cool that you can change out the filter size (single, double, quad basket) and the machine would just know which one you were using. It looked nice on my counter top. Most parts of the machine felt sturdy and high quality. But, a few more cons: the warmer on top never felt more than barely warm. Couldn't really warm anything. I don't know if this was a flaw of my particular machine or if this model just doesn't warm much. The drip tray at the bottom is too small and pretty annoying. I was making 2 drinks a day, using the milk frother, and it seemed like every 2-3 days I had to empty the drip tray. Its a wide flat tray with multiple holes on top, plus water can leak from the sides. So, you have to carry it very carefully to not slightly tip it or let the water slosh much because water would drip out. If this was a once a week or every other week task, it wouldn't bother me so much, but doing it 2-3 times a week got annoying fast. I saw one guy rig his up with a tube that he ran to the sink so that he wouldn't really have to empty the tray, but my machine was nowhere near my sink unfortunately. Overall, I liked the machine, but I couldn't get past the tamper, especially since I felt like I upgraded to the "pro" version but felt like I got a massive down grade instead. I am going to get the non-pro version with the manual tamper and I guess I will just deal with getting a few coffee grounds on my countertop rather than sacrifice my shot quality. If you are someone who isnt picky at all and doesn't really notice the nuances of quality and you just want the easiest most stress free espresso machine, then I would recommend this machine. If you are someone who ever tastes something and you feel dissatisfied enough to say something to a waiter or barista, to just throw it away rather than consume it, or maybe if you are more into coffee and maybe want to make a bit of a hobby out of it, I would not recommend this particular model, but maybe the non-pro version.

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!
