Ninja Luxe Café Pro Series Espresso Machine vs Ninja Luxe Café Premier ES601

Both are Ninja's Barista Assist machines with a built-in conical burr grinder, 25 grind settings, a built-in scale and the Dual Froth System, so drinks taste close. The Pro Series (ES701) is the newer, larger step up: a 2 L removable tank, a stainless body and an integrated tamper. The Premier (ES601) is the proven 3-in-1 that also does drip coffee and cold brew, and owners rate it slightly higher. Buy the Premier for all-round brewing; step up to the Pro if espresso is the main job and you want the bigger tank and sturdier build.

• Choose the Ninja Luxe Café Pro if you mostly pull espresso and milk drinks and want the larger 2 L tank, stainless build and integrated tamper.
• Choose the Ninja Luxe Café Premier if you want espresso, drip coffee and cold brew from one machine and the higher owner rating.
