Coffee machine

Good7.5/10Mid-range

Good at

  • Built-in grinder, scale and guided dosing
  • Easy for beginners to get good espresso
  • Makes espresso, drip and cold brew in one machine

Weak at

  • Plasticky build
  • Milk and hot water only average

Blender / stand mixer

Good7/10Mid-range

Ninja blenders deliver a lot of power and accessories for the money, and are frequent value picks in reviews. They are noisier and less refined than Vitamix, and the stacked blades are a cleaning chore.

Good at

  • Strong crushing power for the price
  • Auto-iQ one-touch programmes
  • Bundles with single-serve cups and processor bowls

Weak at

  • Very loud
  • Stacked blade towers are sharp and awkward to clean
  • Smoothies less silky than Vitamix
