Back-to-school mornings can be hectic enough without the added stress of finding time to make a proper coffee to keep you going. However, a machine promising coffee-shop-quality beverages at the press of a button could make those early starts slightly more manageable – and there’s presently £50 off one of Ninja’s most comprehensively equipped models.
The Ninja Luxe Café Premier Espresso Machine ES601UK has been reduced from £579.99 to £529.99 in its Back To School promotion, offering customers a £50 discount. There’s an additional benefit – SharkNinja is currently providing money off a subsequent purchase based on how much customers spend.
Those purchasing £250 worth can receive £25 off their next order, while a £400 expenditure unlocks £50 off. Spend £600 or above and the discount increases to £75. The offer is valid until December 31, 2026, subject to its terms and conditions.
The Ninja Luxe Café Premier delivers substantially more than a conventional pod machine, featuring 15 beverage settings, including four espresso varieties and four froth presets. It merges three types of coffee machines into one, enabling users to prepare espresso, filter coffee, and cold brews from the same appliance, as reported by Express.
Additionally, it incorporates a built-in grinder and scale to assist users in measuring the correct quantity of freshly ground coffee. The machine also arrives with other accessories, including a portafilter, three baskets, an assisted tamper, a funnel, a froth jug, and a cleaning kit.

It’s also received glowing praise from our shopping editor Ruth Ovens. Ruth reports she’s stopped purchasing takeaway coffees since acquiring the machine for her kitchen, describing it as ‘foolproof’.
She’s used it to prepare everything from flat whites to lattes and cappuccinos. The machine has delivered financial savings for Ruth as well.
Ruth elaborated: “Since having it in our household, we are spending less on coffee. I could easily go through three packets a week with my old pod machines, costing around £8 in pods.
“With the Luxe Cafe, we’ve found a 270g packet of whole beans (£3-£6 depending on what’s on offer) lasts a week. I’ve also noticed I’ve preferred to make my own ‘speciality’ coffee and use my ‘to-go’ mug instead of heading to a coffee shop, so I’ll have saved money there too.”
SharkNinja isn’t the sole retailer offering discounts on its coffee machines; Nespresso has reduced its Vertuo Next Coffee Machine to £79 from £149. The appliance operates at the press of a button and connects via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
Alternatively, for under £50, Lakeland stocks the Lavazza Jolie Coffee Machine Black 18001423 for £47.49, reduced from £94.99. This compact, quiet 10-bar coffee machine also features a straightforward, one-touch design, and its removable components are dishwasher-safe.
Returning to the Ninja Luxe Café Premier Espresso Machine, it’s garnered excellent feedback from reviewers. For example, this person commented: “I bought this a month ago, and I can honestly say it’s the best all-around coffee machine.
“From the fact that it is bean-to-cup, making sure it is the freshest possible brew, to the automatic milk steamer giving you the correct textured milk. The fact that you can make numerous different coffees on the actual machine is also a great feature. I would 100% recommend this to anyone who wants a high-end tasting coffee without spending thousands on a machine.”
A second customer remarked: “Best barista coffee maker on the market makes coffee just like Costa.”
While another commented: “It makes the best coffee, and I’m loving trying out new beans.” However, this four-star assessment states: “I bought this coffee machine through Currys around 2 months ago.
“It is an amazing machine for making espresso and iced drinks. However, I find that when I want to make cappuccinos, the milk turns out so thin and has such an inconsistent texture.”
More positively, this Ninja enthusiast added: “I love the drink outputs and how the machine can customise my grind settings to the drink I select. It takes all of the thinking out of making Espresso drinks. Truly such a fun and enjoyable experience to learn and teach my family how to become a barista! Ninja continues to exceed all expectations.”
