I was very impressed with this Ninja Single serve coffee maker. Not only was able to make a delicious single brew coffee I did it in such a short amount of time given the power of this machine. I do appreciate the flexibility of using my own coffee beans to add to the machine in addition to the cups already available out there. Whether it's brewing a regular cup of joe or taking into the next level and extracting coffee for a latte, I love the flexibility I'm allowed here. Absolutely recommend this machine!
