Ninja 12-Cup Programmable Brewer CE251 Coffee Maker, 60 oz, Black/Stainless Steel (Renewed)

Best coffee maker I have ever owned!!

I was upset when I realized that I'd purchased a refurbished unit by mistake, but it looks like new and works fine. It didn't include the mesh filter, which I'm fine with as I don't use it anyhow. It also didn't include the integrated scoop that goes on the side of the unit. Brew time for 12 cups is about 10-12 minutes and it was easy to use once I figured out that I needed to press the power on button before pre-setting or operating it. Cleaning cycle takes a long time. Does let off a lot of steam as others have said. I chose this model for the removable water reservoir, as I hate having to clean the carafe if I want to immediately run another pot and then having water pour everywhere every time I filled a machine using the carafe. My old unit would also backflow coffee grounds into the clean water reservoir. Happy to no longer have to deal with these issues. I have no complaints other than I wish they'd included the scoop or cover for the scoop storage area so that there's not a huge opening exposed on the side.

this is my second one love this , and the portable tank. just fill and fill basket with your favorite coffee and in min wa la.

I love it!

It is a very reliable kitchen product. Price is right and quality is good! Why you pay more for coffee maker?

Refurbished? This thing is brand new!! Excellent job. Thank you

My only complaint is how slow it is but once I got the right amount of coffee & correct grind the Rich setting is exactly what I was looking for. Previous to this purchase I had the one cup version that made the perfect cup of coffee. Needed a coffee maker that made multiple cups so I naturally went with this larger version but it took lots of coffee making to get several cups to taste like that one cupper.

Maybe I am being picky but it seems the coffee is just not that hot. I check it with a meat thermometer and it was 170 degrees which is within standard guidelines. After researching the web, ideally coffee should be around 195 to 205 degrees, any hotter it will scald the coffee. So, it seems the coffee maker is about 20-25 degrees off the ideal temp. That said, there is another article that suggests 155 to 175F as the ideal temp. Anyway, it must be me.Now, for the coffee maker itself, the machine is really very well made. A lot of thought has gone into its design. The removal water cage is a delight and easy to fill. There is a measuring spoon built into the unit for exact measuring (one tbsp per cup) The coffee craft is rock solid and sturdy as can be. The size of the unit does not overpower your countertop. All in all, it is a great unit. I just have to figure out what temperature is correct but in any event, it comes out at 170F.Second review; We had the coffee maker for about a week now. Nothing has changed regarding the temperature of the coffee. It remains 170 degrees and becomes lukewarm in a few minutes after pouring in a cup. We are extremely unhappy and disappointed in the unit. Sorry, we purchased it.Update: We tried to like this coffee maker and kept it for a little while to see if things improved but we are returning it today. 09/06/2022. Don't know if it is a defected unit of not but will not buy this make again.
