This never happens — Ninja's Luxe Café coffee maker is $90 off in early Prime Day deal

Tom's Guide3 days ago
Ever since its release in 2024, the sellout Ninja Luxe Café espresso machine has rarely gone on sale. So this $90 off Amazon Prime Day discount is a rare opportunity to save on one of Ninja's top-selling products.
With a full price of $599, this coffee maker is not cheap, but it offers phenomenal value that outpaces anything you'll find in our best espresso machine guide — and that's before this $90 saving.
We gave the Ninja Luxe Café a 4.5-star rating in our review, and loved its ultra-capable quad shot and cold brew features. It even has a cold foam setting, allowing you to make delicious iced lattes all summer long.
This 15% saving on the Ninja Luxe Café is available in Ninja's July 4th sale, as well as on Amazon's early Prime Day deals. You get a 3-in-1 machine that makes espresso, drip coffee and rapid cold brew. It also has Barista Assist technology, an in integrated grinder and weight-based dosing, plus hands-free frothing. Price check: $509 @ Ninja Kitchen
In testing, our reviewer Camryn found making delicious espresso from home easier than ever with the Ninja Luxe Café Premier Series.
She found that its automatic milk steaming created the perfect texture without any manual steaming required, and because it has an in-built whisk, it can even texturize cold milk.
Other intelligent features include its weight-based dosing, which means you'll never waste coffee beans. Plus, the assisted grinder settings suggest changes to your grind size based on the speed of your espresso extraction. In other words, this coffee maker will prevent you from ever having to drink a bad brew.
When Ninja released its new Ninja Luxe Café Pro model earlier this year, I started to look for discounts on the OG model. This is the best I've seen so far, with a 15% saving on its $599 price.

New York's special interests will eat Zohran Mamdani for lunch

For all his radicalism, Zohran Mamdani's program is often as vaporous as steam wafting from a Midtown manhole. It's a lot more about vibes than about delivering real change. His city-owned grocery store scheme, for starters, is almost entirely symbolic — not any real answer to the price-gouging he and his fans pretends is common at privately owned markets. The initial plan is only for one city store in each borough: That literally can't make any difference for most New Yorkers. And those five stores can't even be a meaningful test because it'd be a disaster for the new mayor if any of the stores failed. Tellingly, Mamdani brags that Chicago has already done a 'feasibility study' for city-owned groceries. Problem is, no one can read the Chicago analysis, because city leaders shelved it — almost certainly because they discovered that municipal-owned supermarkets have no chance of success. Contrary to what the hipster socialists imagine, groceries' profit margins are not rich but as thin as deli-sliced ham: Keeping the store going requires obsessive management — not the casual oversight that's given the world the phrase 'good enough for government work.' Of course, even Mamdani's plans to finance his stores is as airy as coffee-cart bagels: He said he'd tap the $140 million that the city already gives away to corporate grocery chains as a subsidy — except his crack crew misread the facts on the city's 'Food Retail Expansion to Support Health' program. That $140 million, it turns out, is how how much private store owners invested in the local economy after getting much smaller tax breaks, not city outlays a mayor could redirect. The socialist's confusion here recalls fellow DSAer Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's celebration when Amazon pulled out of the plan to build a major headquarters in Queens: This freed up $3 billion that New York could spend on schools instead of a corporate giveaway, she exulted. But no: The massive e-tailer had simply been promised (just like many other companies) tax breaks if it created so many jobs; with the deal dead, Amazon wouldn't generate any income for the state to hold off on taxing. Zeroed-out Zohran must have the same math tutor as AOC, because zilch is how much the city has on hand to pay for his food pantries posing as groceries. Of course, Mamdani actually got the funding for another of his pilot-project schemes — then lost it because he couldn't even cooperate with fellow Democrats. Ending fares on MTA buses is one of his big ideas for making NYC 'affordable'; he helped author a one-year experiment in fare-free buses on five routes in 2024 — only to see Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie quietly can the next year's funding after Mamdani refused to vote to pass the state budget. Reminder: Much of Mamdani's program — starting with getting $10 billion to cover many initiatives by hiking taxes on the rich — depends on getting Albany's OK, and he's going to need Heastie's enthusiastic support since Gov. Kathy Hochul has already said 'no go!' How will Heastie fight for a guy he already sees as a lightweight? Look: New York politics, state and city, is packed with deeply connected special interests — with public-sector outfits (unions, massive nonprofits) often more ruthless than the real-estate lobby and other private-sector players. Voters' revulsion at that corruption is a big reason Mamdani won the primary, but this crew will eat the pretty boy for lunch while he's busy filming his next viral YouTube.

Pick up this Dyson cordless vacuum while it's $180 off for Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day has returned for the summer, making it a good time to check to see if any big-ticket gadgets on your wishlist are on sale. A lot of our favorite tech is on sale at the moment, and that includes a number of Prime Day vacuum deals. One of the best is on the Dyson V15 Detect Plus, which has dropped to $570 for Prime members. We loved the Dyson V15 Detect and it earned a slot in our best cordless vacuums guide. The Plus model on sale during Prime Day is the same vacuum with more accessories. The suction power on the V15 Detect Plus is really impressive, especially for a cordless vacuum. For anyone with pets, good suction should be a strong consideration when selecting a vacuum, and we were thoroughly impressed with the pet hair this model picked up in our tests from both hardwood and carpet. Near the record-low price for this model. $570 at Amazon The Fluffy Optic hard surface cleaning head comes with a laser that illuminates the ground in front of you as you vacuum. It does a frighteningly good job of highlighting just how much dust, hair and other debris have collected on your hardwood or tile floors that you might not have seen. For a shocking look at just how much stuff is on your floors, try vacuuming with the lights off. The V15 Detect Plus gets its namesake from a handy LCD display screen on the main body of the vacuum that tells you exactly how many particles across different size ranges the vacuum has detected since you started cleaning. In practice, this doesn't add anything to the functionality of the device, but it sheds a light on just how much stuff you've picked up.

Pipeline Disruption Slashes Ecuador Output by 133,000 bpd

Ecuador's state oil company, Petroecuador, has declared force majeure on its operations after both major crude pipelines, SOTE and OCP, halted flows due to worsening erosion in the Amazonian province of Napo. The company suspended activities this week to prevent further damage to critical infrastructure as erosion along the Coca River continues to threaten oil transport lines and the Coca Codo Sinclair hydroelectric plant, Ecuador's largest. The suspension has already cut Ecuador's crude output by an estimated 133,000 barrels per day (bpd), based on Petroecuador data, placing fresh strain on the country's oil-dependent economy. Ecuador produced about 464,000 bpd on average in 2024, according to official statistics. "Force majeure has been declared so that (Petroecuador) can act with all the tools necessary," Petroecuador chief executive Leonard Bruns told Reuters. This is the latest in a series of setbacks for the company. In May, operations at the Esmeraldas refinery, the country's largest, with a 110,000 bpd capacity, were suspended after a fire damaged a fuel oil tank. Two months earlier, a landslide in the northeast led to one of the country's worst oil spills in years, prompting Petroecuador to shut down the SOTE pipeline and declare a 60-day force majeure. Approximately 25,000 barrels of crude spilled into rivers near the Colombian border, disrupting crude signature export, Oriente crude, is a medium-to-heavy sour grade with an API gravity of 23.6 and sulfur content of 1.61%. Last year, the SOTE system transported over 104 million barrels of Oriente crude. Petroecuador has declared force majeure multiple times in recent years, including in 2022 when it suspended nearly half its production amid protests by the Kichwa community over alleged breaches of social and environmental agreements. Ecuador remains one of South America's key oil producers, alongside Venezuela and Colombia. The oil sector remains central to the country's economy, generating roughly $8.6 billion in revenue in 2024, equivalent to about 7% of GDP, according to the Ministry of Finance. However, output has dropped nearly 100,000 bpd over the past decade due to underinvestment, aging fields, infrastructure failures, and political volatility. President Daniel Noboa has set a target of $42 billion in oil sector investment to reverse this decline and raise production. Last month, Petroecuador awarded a drilling contract to China's Sinopec to develop fields in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The new drilling campaign is only expected to add approximately 12,000 bpd over the next several years, according to company estimates. Still, Ecuador's ambitions may be running up against global market headwinds. Oil prices have moderated significantly since their 2022 peaks during the global energy shock triggered by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Brent crude averaged around $83 per barrel in the first half of 2025, down from over $100 in mid-2022. Lower prices reduce the return on investment for new upstream projects, particularly in environmentally sensitive or high-cost regions like the Amazon price softening coincides with a broader slowdown in energy investment worldwide. Although global upstream spending remains elevated by historical standards, international oil companies have become more cautious in politically unstable markets. For Ecuador, which requires an estimated $10 billion in upstream investment over the next five years just to offset natural decline, this poses a significant risk. Ecuadorian officials have projected national oil production could peak at 600,000 bpd in 2026 before declining to around 395,000 bpd by 2028, a figure that appears in internal planning documents reviewed by local media. Petroecuador's fields face particularly steep decline rates, though the oft-cited 23% annual figure has not been publicly confirmed by the company. According to a July 3 analysis by economist Freddy García of Andersen Ecuador, the production cutback to 332,129 bpd has resulted in daily losses of around $8 million. García warned that the government would likely need to revise its budget plan and seek new external financing to close the fiscal gap. 'The loss of revenue forces a revision of the budget or the search for external financing to cover the gap,' he said. He also noted that oil revenue is no longer a reliable base for public spending due to production volatility and declining field productivity. Ecuador also faces broader energy security issues. Grid reliability is increasingly strained by both hydroelectric vulnerabilities and fossil fuel disruptions. Yet with a fiscal deficit exceeding $5 billion and high sovereign debt levels, the country has little room to reduce reliance on oil. By Alex Kimani for More Top Reads From this article on
