Ninja Pods & Grounds Iced Coffee Maker, K-Cup Pod Compatible, Stone PB041ST

We needed a small coffee machine at a second home and this coffee machine is excellent. It accepts pods or you can use ground coffee in a small basket, which us what we did. The flavor is rich a d 2 rounded reaspoons is perfect for a 12 Oz coffee. Excellent design, quality and use. Easy to clean. It appears very durable. I highly recommend this product and it's a great value.

This is the 3rd single cup coffee maker I've tried recently, and I love it the most. I can make a K-pod cup, or I can make a cup with ground coffee. The water reservoir is large enough that I don't have to fill it with each cup. It's easy to insert a paper filter to brew ground coffee. The filter holder is easy to remove to dump the used paper filter. There is a space to stash the parts you aren't using (like the brew filter) so they don't get misplaced. The controls are located on the top and are intuitive (for me). The footprint is tiny so it doesn't take up a lot of counter space. It comes with a little tool to clean the nozzle if it gets plugged. It has easy instructions for demineralizing and doesn't require some extra solution to clean, just vinegar. I can't speak to the longevity because I've only had the unit for about a month, but it's a winner.

When my Keuring coffee maker died after only a couple of years of use I started looking for a replacement. I had heard that Ninja had a good reputation for making quality appliances and when I learned they made a coffee maker that gave you the choice of using ground coffee or Kcups I was intrigued. I do prefer ground coffee as it is much more affordable than the Keuring cups and ...well...I just feel ground coffee...especially the way I prefer it.....black ...tastes better. I was never quite satisfied with the Keuring coffee makers they were so ugly looking and the coffee they made....I guess I already went over that...but anyway as a single old guy who just wanted a single cup of coffee in the morning I was stuck with Keuring. I have had the Ninja Pods and Grounds coffee maker for about 6 months now and I have to say I am very pleased with the product...maybe even more than pleased. As I mentioned I am a black coffee drinker. This coffee maker does a superb job of making a good cup of coffee. I prefer using the "rich" mode as it brings out all the flavors of my coffee. Another thing. I like my coffee hot. I am scratching my head over reports from some other reviewers saying the Ninja does't come through with hot coffee. What? My coffee is always hot from my Ninja. Forgot to mention that my morning routiine also includes a cup of green tea and let me tell you this Ninja comes through with flying colors in brewing a an excellent cup of tea. All I have to do is place a tea bag in the basket put it on "rich" mode and it produces a wonderful cup of green tea. I have the Ninja Pods and Grounds coffee maker that comes in "stone" color that looks so nice on my kitchen counter. It takes up less space than the aforementioned Keuring and gets a lot of compliments. I think it really looks classy. I like the fact that you can adjust the little tray to accomodate any size cup and it will even accomodate my travel mug. Yay! One final note..regarding Kcups...I am not totally against them In fact I keep a few around when I am too lazy to measure out a ground coffee cup o' joe and also for when I have company and need faster coffee making in those situations. The Kcups work great on this machine. Don't know what to say except I hightly recommend this Ninja and think you'll really like it.

Love it! It's compact and looks good but most importantly it makes great coffee both pods and grounds taste much better than my old keurig. I highly recommend using filters for easier cleaning of the basket though..

We purchased this about a year ago to replace a Keurig. We just got tired of dealing with them. The pods work without any issue whatsoever. And I like the idea that you have the basket with storage on the side of the unit for it and a measuring spoon. It’s very clever. The machine is easier to clean than the competition. You can remove the spout and put it into the dishwasher. Everything is dishwasher safe except for the carafe. We liked this so much that we bought a second one for our daughter in her dorm I also like how it is so easy to do a descaling. The functionality of the machine is extremely easy. The quality seems more sturdy than the other brand. Is extremely easy to use and the strength is appropriate. I even feel it seems more durable than the other brand as well. I would totally recommend this coffee maker.

This is my second Ninja Kcup compatible coffee maker, my first one was black had the frother on the side, the maker lasted three years and died. Time to buy a new one, but I actually never used the frother, so opted out on that feature this round. I went with the stone color ninja, due to the fact I loved the first ninja I bought. I love this stone color, visually it is very appealing and stylish but Holy Harriet is this thing ever noisy when brewing, the cats are terrified by the noise, and not pleasant to hear for us either and it does it thru the whole brew/drip cycle. Please tell me this will get more quiet with use, if the coffee doesn't wake you up that terrible brew noise certainly will. If not, I will probably return it because it is just too loud. ****UPDATED 10/2/26 -note: after using it for several days, with multiple cups per day, the noise has subsided. Love it like I did my last one, updating my star status as well.****

I'm loving my new Ninja. I've had SO many different types of coffee makers. My favorite is a stovetop percolator. This is perfect especially since you can use pods or the basket filter. I don't like the mess with the reusable baskets but oh well. I now use a small filter & it works great inside the basket filter to cut down on the messy grounds. The size is perfect & thin & love the water container in back. I use filtered water. Mine seemed noisy at first, but not a big deal I guess. I didn't hear the maker on any of the videos that I watched prior to my purchase. I already have a frother, so I didn't really need that. I have Our Place & Beautiful appliances so the cream color matched those pieces good enough. I did have some tiny droplets dripping from the condensation on the side, but that has stopped. I don't see it being any hotter than any other coffeemaker. My last was a 4 cup stainless carafe Cuisinart, which I loved, except for the burner black covering wore off after 2 years. I think the heat is fine & I haven't used the auto shut off yet bc I unplug all of my appliances after use & just plug them in when I use them. So far, I'm loving the basket more than pods. I like strong french roast coffee, so I use the basket w/ Gevalia French Roast in the morning- using less than a regular machine, which is great & I love the rich button. I have found that SBX Italian roast pods are fantastic. If you use a big mug just up the oz. I use a decaf pod in the evening, or just use empty pod basket for hot water. for tea or cocoa. I'm very pleased with the construction of this model w/ the cord caddy, storage drawer, spoon holder & water storage. It's fabulous! Very pleased. *UPDATE: I purchased tiny filters for this & they work great but they're a bit expensive. I have filters from my previous machine & have found that using a "regular small basket type filter" is able to fold over one side of the permanent filter just a tiny bit after fitting it into the basket. This works much better than the expensive super small filters & less messy because those tiny ones still allow some seepage of grounds into the gold basket. (That's just me, but I don't like the mess w/ only using a permanent filter). I wash the permanent filter by hand w/ a brush (& a toothbrush if needed) to make sure it's spotless after each use. The brush works quick, great & removes oils & grounds from top piece. I really, really love this coffeemaker. It's one of my favorite purchases. I use it 3-4 × day. It works perfectly.

Fantastic coffee machine. Ninja did a great design with everything about it. Heavy duty and mighty ... and comes with lots of accessories. They have it priced very affordable!! They Obviously care about the consumer. The water heats up to a awesome 205 degrees. Brews kcups and your own grounds of choice and hot water for tea!! Buy one you won't be disappointed!!

This product is not compatible to Gulf country such as UAE. Voltage is 110. This should have been specified on the product details.

Muy buena cafetera el café sabe muy bueno. Si la recomiendo

What an utterly disappointing experience. It is beyond me as to why Ninja would sell ANY of their coffee makers on the Amazon UK site when they come with AMERICAN PLUGS! There is no mention of this in the listing anywhere. Selling a product no one can use….what is even the point. Don’t let the reviews fool you, they are all from the Amazon US site just plastered on this UK posting to make it look good. Ninja makes great machines but not for users in the UK. Also, Amazon Customer Service is absolutely worthless. They said this machine could be used with a power adapter. It CANNOT. If you live in the UK and you need a very large paper weight, this is the right product for you.

Coffee machine works well, but it’s a little slow

ACTUALIZACIÓN después de 9 meses: La cafetera dejó de detectar la funcion de cápsulas. (Se le cayó un imán al adaptador de pods) SOLUCION: el adaptador para cápsulas de la cafetera tienen un pequeño imán que se le cayó sin darnos cuenta por suerte lo encontré y lo volví a poner donde va y volvió a detectar las cápsulas sin problema. yo compre la version color beich pensando que la unica diferencia entre la beich y la de color negro era la maquina para hacer espuma, pero resulto que la de color beich no trae una funcion llamada ¨SPECIALTY 4 oz¨, que es la que te permite hacer los shots para los lattes y capuchinos. Asi que si piensas comprar una de estas dos versiones recomiendo la que tiene la maquina para hacer espuma por su funcion extra y la diferencia en precios es minima. para que puedan sacarle mayor provecho a la cafetera. En conclusion La de color beich funciona excelente y la recomiendo bastante, pero si pudiera comprarla otra vez compraria la de color negro con la funcion especial para capuchinos y lattes.
