At a glance

The Ninja Luxe Café Premier (ES601UK) is a 3-in-1 espresso, filter and cold brew machine with a built-in burr grinder, scale, grind guidance and hands-free milk frothing. It is aimed at people who want café-style drinks without learning barista skills. UK buyers mostly praise how easy it is to use and the quality of the coffee, and like the range of hot and cold drinks and the built-in storage. The recurring complaints are a minority of early faults (steam wand or line, leaks, frother), inconsistent grind recommendations, drinks that some find not hot enough, and a small drip tray. Ninja offers a 2-year guarantee on registration. Independent long-term reliability data could not be accessed. Buyers who want more frothing presets or drink settings should look at the Premier Plus or Pro.

Strengths

  • Guided grinding with 25 settings, a built-in scale and an assisted tamper make espresso easy for beginners.
  • Reviewers often say the coffee rivals coffee shops.
  • Makes espresso, filter coffee, cold brew and automatic hot or cold milk foam from one machine.
Show all (5)
  • Attractive design with on-board accessory storage.
  • 2-year guarantee on registration, and several owners praise how Ninja handled faults.

Things to consider

  • Some owners report steam wand, steam line, frother or leak failures within weeks or months.
  • Grind recommendations can be inconsistent and work best with freshly roasted beans.
  • Some find drinks not hot enough, the process slow, or the drip tray too small.
Show all (5)
  • Bulky on the worktop, and milk frothing is automatic only.
  • Fewer froth presets and drink settings than the Premier Plus and Pro.
Who is it for, and who is it not for?

Good for

  • Beginners moving from pods or takeaway coffee who want guided espresso and milk drinks.
  • Households wanting both hot coffee and cold drinks such as cold brew and iced lattes.

May not suit

  • Enthusiasts who want full manual control over frothing and extraction.
  • Buyers who prioritise proven long-term reliability over convenience.
  • Small kitchens with limited worktop space.

UK buyers mostly praise how easy the machine is to set up and use, even for first-time bean users, and say the espresso, lattes and flat whites rival high-street coffee shops. The wide range of hot and cold drinks, including cold brew and cold foam, the looks and the built-in accessory storage are also liked. The main complaints are reliability: a minority report the steam wand, internal steam line or frother failing within weeks or months, leaks, or recurring error alerts, and some had replacements fail too. Others find the grind recommendations inconsistent, drinks not hot enough, the drip tray small, or the process slow, and a few would prefer more manual control. Several praise Ninja's handling of faults, while some return problems were with the retailer.

  1. Customer 5/5 20 October 2026 Currys Currys, Silver & Black (ES601UK)

    Excellent product, easy to use and makes cafe quality drinks. The whole family love it.

  2. Customer 5/5 9 October 2026 Currys Currys, Silver & Black (ES601UK)

    Excellent, they have just upgraded this model but for the difference in price this model is great as it does virtually the same things as the upgrade so save your money

  3. Customer 1/5 3 September 2026 Currys Currys, Silver & Black (ES601UK)

    Always going off in error. No water/ or install jug error. All the time! So frustrating

  4. Customer 5/5 3 September 2026 Currys Currys, Silver & Black (ES601UK)

    Produces coffee on par or better than any coffee shop. Compact, stylish and high quality expected from Ninja. Offers great variety of coffees, drink sizes, milk froth consistency and customisation such as espresso and milk temperatures. Note the barista technology algorithm for grind size requires fresh roasted artisan beans to work, not high street or supermarket bought beans. Highly recommended.

  5. Customer 5/5 25 August 2026 Currys Currys, Black (ES601UKBK)

    Such an amazing coffee machine. Yes it’s on the pricey side but it is worth it. Easy to clean, easy to use and looks good on the counter too!…

  6. Customer 4/5 14 August 2026 Currys Currys, Silver & Black (ES601UK)

    An excellent machine in terms of components and quality, but I think it should be a less automatic machine and be able to make manual adjustments, The machines are very slow for my taste and for the price I don't think it's right. Yes, I would recommend it …

  7. Customer 2/5 28 June 2026 Currys Currys, Black (ES601UKBK)

    Steamer stopped working 1 month in

  8. Customer 2/5 17 June 2026 Currys Currys, Black (ES601UKBK)

    The machine looks great, but the factory guidelines are frustrating. The manual recommended a grind setting of 2 for espresso, but following this resulted in a …

  9. Customer 2/5 2026-05 Currys Feefo feed for ES601UK listings

    Not the best espresso machine for the money. Get a sage, much more consistent results each cup.

  10. Customer 3/5 2026-02 Currys Feefo feed for ES601UK listings

    it is nice looking and sturdy, but the hotness of the beverage still not enough.

  11. D*** H*** 5/5 12 August 2026 Amazon Silver (ES601UK)

    I usually don't write any reviews but this I had to. What a masterstroke Ninja has brought here. Every coffee is so good to the point I can't stand the cafe quality anymore. Cold brew option with the cold froth is an absolute gem in this hot weather. Machine is ready in a jiff… Very low noise as well… Easy 5 stars!

  12. S*** 5/5 19 July 2026 Amazon Silver (ES601UK)

    Wonderfully simple machine that makes great coffee. Having bought and returned two, irreparable, Breville coffee machines we paid an extra £100 for this Ninja machine… Easy to clean which is handy as the Ninja waste water needs emptying every 4 or 5 mugs. Our only minor criticism would be the small water container which needs refilling every 4 or 5 mugs, but it is minor. Overall this is an outstanding piece of kit.

  13. M*** T*** P*** 4/5 1 April 2025 Amazon Silver (ES601UK)

    Relatively simple to use. Helpful support people. However, I struggled to use the 4 shot lux basket as it refused to grind enough coffee… The drip tray is frustratingly too small and often overflows… The coffee made is good. It appears to be excellent value relative to other machines… Overall, I am happy but it could be so much better. The milk steamer wand is always needing cleaning…

  14. H*** C*** 1/5 10 August 2026 Amazon Silver (ES601UK)

    I received a faulty product, which can happen and is absolutely fine, but the real problem started when I tried to return it. They are absolutely not helpful, I was promised a collection from home 4 TIMES… I ended up calling Ninja and they offered a quick solution with a replacement right away. Highly suggest everyone to buy it directly from the company itself…

  15. M*** 3/5 2 July 2026 Amazon Silver (ES601UK); reviewed in the United Arab Emirates

    It's OK machine but not great, despite the premium price, so many things made from cheap plastic.

  16. N*** 5/5 23 September 2026 Amazon Black (ES601UKBK)

    I'm a barista and I wanted a good coffee machine for my house. This is the best home machine I have ever used. It's very easy to set up… it looks great on my counter. It makes a delicious iced coffee, latte, flat white etc. . Perfect

  17. B*** M*** 4/5 12 December 2025 Amazon Black (ES601UKBK)

    Bought as a replacement for an aging Sage machine. Pros: - Good looking machine with solid, durable feel… - Coffee and milk temperatures spot-on… Main annoyances: 1. The recommended grind size is completely inconsistent with the same bean… 2. The grinder can occasionally throw a wobbly - rather than delivering around 18 gm for a double-shot, it will suddenly grind a much larger amount (largest so far: 33 gm)…

  18. T*** 1/5 7 October 2026 Amazon Black (ES601UKBK)

    Do not buy from Amazon,Rubbish waste of money, doesn't do what I bought it for the auto barista is crap doesn't recommend right grind they tell you to run 3 cup through it so grinder can calibrate but then it changes… you get a single drip of coffee… The handle is so stiff too that you have to hold onto one side of the machine and put a lot of force to lock it into place poorly made, gutted.…

  19. P*** 1/5 16 October 2026 Amazon Gunmetal (ES601UKGM)

    Bought this from Amazon. It started to leak water when trying to warm up milk without working… Ninja were very polite and professional, run a few tests and videos, and decision made to switch off, its not safe…

  20. C*** m*** 5/5 25 October 2026 Amazon Silver (ES601UK)

    Works well very nice item

  21. E*** 5/5 25 October 2026 Argos

    Don't hesitate to buy, its great! … Bought this last weekend for my husband and it's hardly been off! He absolutely loves it, saves a lot of visits to coffee shops! Highly recommend! We had another brand machine and definitely would not go back!

  22. J*** 4/5 22 October 2026 Argos

    Great fun 🤩 learning … We are slowly tip toeing into being a barista couple - great coffee so far we are even daring to experiment with the beans!

  23. D*** 3/5 20 October 2026 Argos

    Not warm 😢 … Love the machine but the coffee & milk is always barely warm! I end up putting it in the microwave to warm it up

  24. G*** 3/5 18 October 2026 Argos

    Item replaced after 6mths - faulty steam wand … The internal line to the steam wand popped/burst after 6 months use, rendering the machine unusable. Whilst this was extremely disappointing the interrogation, return and replacement was handled very well by Ninja.

  25. T*** 1/5 18 October 2026 Argos

    Leaking machine … I can't give a opinion on the coffee machine as it leaked from the first day and was returned

  26. G*** 5/5 18 October 2026 Argos

    Fantastic … Fantastic, very easy to use easy to clean. Don't know why I waited so long.

  27. W*** 5/5 15 October 2026 Argos

    Amazing … Amazing- never have to buy a shop bought coffee again. The design is compact and has a compartment for the accessories.

  28. A*** 1/5 15 October 2026 Argos

    Avoid , spend your money elsewhere … I purchased one of these in July 25, within 3 months it had broke, ninja replaced this, the same thing happened again (steam coming from porta filler and not the wand) surprisingly this one lasted 6 months and the same thing happened, 3 machines with the same problem over the last 1 year, now awaiting a replacement upgrade…

  29. 6*** 5/5 18 October 2026 Argos

    The best … It worth every penny's spent makes the best coffee ever I have had two coffee makers before this one stand out the best

The Ninja Luxe Cafe - A $499 Everything Machine

The Ninja Luxe Café introduces innovative assistive technology at a competitive price, notably offering grind-by-weight dosing and competent automated milk frothing. However, it suffers from ergonomic flaws, excessive water waste into the drip tray, and very poor filter coffee performance. It works reasonably well for basic espresso and milk drinks, but struggles to deliver on its promise of doing everything well.

Ninja Luxe Cafe Espresso Machine - FULL Review and Test

The Ninja Luxe Café is a versatile machine capable of brewing authentic espresso with non-pressurised baskets, drip coffee, and rapid cold brew. It stands out with useful features like an integrated scale for weight-based grinder dosing and an effective automatic milk frother. However, steaming milk is rather slow, the jug spout is poorly shaped for latte art, and there is no simple cancel button once a brew process has started.

YouTube · Review

Ninja Luxe Cafe Premier Review | Is Breville Worried?

The Ninja Luxe Café offers exceptional value for money, featuring a mess-free workflow, accurate grind suggestions, and generous cup clearance ideal for beginners. However, the full-size drip coffee and cold brew options produce watery, under-extracted drinks, and the automatic milk frothing is not refined enough for latte art. Overall, it serves as a strong, budget-friendly competitor to entry-level Breville espresso machines.

YouTube · Comparison

Breville Barista Express VS Ninja Luxe Cafe | Which espresso machine is better? October 2024

The Ninja Luxe is a versatile, highly automated coffee machine that is ideal for beginners, offering espresso, drip coffee, cold brew, and hands-free milk frothing. While coffee aficionados seeking total manual control and optimal espresso sweetness may prefer traditional manual machines, the Ninja Luxe delivers great value for money and reliable results. It also includes useful extras, such as an integrated dosing scale and a hidden manual milk steaming mode.
