Won’t buy another coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since receiving this coffee machine I have no need to buy a coffee from any coffee shop again, I am delighted with it. Its compact size is ideal, doesn’t take up a huge amount of space. It’s easy to clean and maintain however I was a bit disappointed with the instructions. Although I enjoy coffee I am not a barista therefore would have liked more detailed instructions on how to make each type of coffee. Despite using it for a number of weeks now I am still a bit unsure and it’s a bit of trial and error. At times when making espresso only small amounts of water come through, I understand that this can be caused by the grind being too fine etc but I thought the machine was supposed to adjust this for you. I have looked online for further instructions, but have struggled to find information for this model. I’m hoping to figure it out although have managed to struggle through. Maybe it’s just me that doesn’t understand, I’m not sure. I like the easy milk frothing and also the instant adjustable temp hot water which is great even if making herbal tea. Also love the self cleaning milk frother. The water tank is small so need to remember to check it but at least the water is fresh. So a good machine which I would recommend however instructions let it down for me.

Amazing Mini coffee Machine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first thought on my Ninja cafe mini was I am very impressed with the design. Over the years I have had tried a variety of coffee machines and pod ones too & nothing like this one. I am very impressed up to now, looks lovely on my work top, doesn’t take up much room, great for a smaller kitchen. Came with great instructions & lots of videos on YouTube. Came very well packed, with recyclable packaging. I have tried different coffee beans & some I haven’t liked but that’s my fault. I have brought some new glass mugs and I just didn’t check the size & they were a little too big to fit under (once again my fault) but my normal coffee cups fit perfectly. The water dispenser isn’t big but it’s no problem filling it, when you love a great mug of coffee you don’t mind keep topping it up. I love that the bean hopper holds so many, I was surprised how much I used out of one bag. The coffee beans out of the grinder come’s out so good. It’s so easy to find the strength of coffee you require & once you have used it a few times you don’t need to change anything. My coffee came out amazing once I had found how to make it properly. One feature which is great is the self cleaning steam milk wand, what a great idea. The milk comes out so frothy & the milk wand has lots of pressure. As much as I love this machine, I wish you could make an espresso and steam milk at the same time, but sadly you can’t. The coffee is well worth the wait. The water drip tray is so easy to empty & comes apart with ease to clean it. My over all verdict on this machine is I love it and would I recommend it? Yes I would. I walk in to my kitchen & it smells like I am in a coffee shop & after using the machine for a while it will soon be cheaper than picking one up from the shop.

Fantastic Coffee Machine
Out of the box the machine looks wonderful and gives the impression of a well made product. The instructions are clear and understandable, when first setting up the machine. There are many different options from coffee strength to water temperature. You can also choose from 175ml or 235ml of water for your desired application. The milk frother is easy to use and gives you barista style froth. There are many different grind options for the beans which the machine tells you what’s recommended for the type of coffee you’d like. Once set up and working it’s easy to use with the options clearly highlighted for your selection. This machine produces good coffee and has many choices.

Very Impressed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive this product and it definitely didn’t disappoint. It was the first coffee maker I have purchased and once I’d gotten around the set up instructions which were very detailed and easy to follow, I tasted my first home made fresh cup of coffee and it was delicious. The product is compact and relatively quiet and my drink tasted like I had just walked out of a coffee shop. I liked the multiple options for the level of froth, size of drink and temperature. It’s was easy to clean and fits nicely in the corner of my kitchen and doesn’t take up much room. Aesthetically pleasing and I would definitely recommend this product.

Perfect for Coffee Lovers
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with this machine. The bean hopper is a great size, so I’m not constantly having to refill it, and the automatic milk frother is brilliant. It takes all the guesswork out of making milk-based coffees and gives consistently good results. The recommended grind size works really well too. It took me a few coffees to get used to how the machine works, as it will occasionally recalibrate depending on the beans you’re using, but once you understand that it’s all part of the process, it makes excellent coffee every time. The machine feels well built, it’s easy to keep clean, and it looks great on the worktop. Overall, it’s been a fantastic addition to the kitchen and I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a quality espresso machine.

Attractive Machine with a barista style experience
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this a few days ago. The coffee machine itself is very attractive and looks great on the worktop - eye catching! The size of it is perfect too, not taking up a lot of worktop space. I found it straight forward to use and the instructions were easy to follow. I love the fact that it grinds the coffee beans according to what kind of coffee you choose ie: espresso and sets its own suggestion for the grind sizing which is really helpful for consistency and flavour. Considering the pressure used, It’s not as noisy as I was anticipating which is good. My only criticism is that it does seem to take a long while to produce a cup of coffee however, on a positive note that is what gives you that ‘barista experience’. My favorite part is the frother - it comes with a lovely jug and makes literally the perfect froth (you can pick dairy or plant based too which is useful) and the frother is so quick and simple to keep clean. Another good element is that the drip tray has a handy marker which pops up when it’s time to empty the tray. In general it’s quick and easy to keep clean. In short, the coffee tastes great, the frother is an excellent feature and it is a very attractive machine. Overall I would recommend it.

Really great piece of equipment!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Café Mini Plus Espresso Machine arrived on Friday ( (17/07/2025) , it’s really well package, the quick start manual is really handy and it’s so easy to set up, it’s got a small foot print but iot packs a punch, it might not have all the whistles and bells of the bigger luxe models but it does a really good job without taking up too much space on the work counter, found the pressure fine, the grind selector works well and has helped to it make a grand cup of coffee! The milk froth wand works perfectly and I have enjoyed consistency good cappuccinos each morning .

Brilliant coffee, tiny footprint
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got the machine a few weeks ago now and am so happy that I did. The extraction is genuinely excellent for a machine this size, pulling rich shots with a lovely thick crema every time. The froth quality has been a real surprise too, giving me proper silky microfoam that holds up for latte art rather than the big bubbly foam I expected from a compact machine. Consistency is where it really shines though, shot after shot comes out the same, so I am not fiddling with settings every morning. The pressure feels spot on and the whole thing has clearly been dialled in properly. Best of all is the footprint. It tucks neatly onto my counter without dominating the kitchen, which was the whole reason I went for the mini. If you want café-standard coffee without surrendering half your worktop, this is the one to get.

Great little coffee machine
Bought this for my daughter who wanted something more compact than my Ninja Luxe Café Premier (ES601UK), and it hasn't disappointed. The coffee is excellent, easily on a par with the full-size machine, and the frother is actually a step up on the Premier's, which surprised me given the smaller footprint. The one real letdown is the lack of cold froth. The Premier handles it, the Mini doesn't, so if cold drinks matter to you that's worth knowing before you buy. Everything else has been spot on, and for a smaller kitchen it's hard to fault.
