Comments

George R.: It's well designed and powerful. As long the contents can flow it mashes anything to a liquid or paste. I like the automated cycles making shakes more convenient. It seems to be well built. The only big negative is that it's very loud. Otherwise it's convenient and joy to use.

Jennifer: I am incredibly picky with blending because I enjoy smoothies, but I have texture issues with strings, seeds, etc. This does a pretty great job of making a nice, palatable drink. I appreciate having a single-serve device, too, because I never overprepare or waste ingredients. It's very easy to clean - you just pop the whole container off, flip it over, unscrew the blade lid, and replace it with a drink lid. None of the pieces have inconvenient nooks or holes that are hard to scrub.

My one complaint: this thing is so, so noisy. My entire household is very aware when I'm using it. I'm not comfortable making anything unless everyone upstairs is awake at the time. For me, it's a small price to pay for a nicer blend, but I can't recommend it if a quiet device is a must for your needs.

Kim: I purchased this blender to replace a similar (but much less powerful) as seen on tv brand which had broken. My husband and I had no idea what we were missing with our previous blender of the same style. We have found this blender to be incredibly powerful and it has held up well to being used multiple times every day for shakes and smoothies. As an added bonus we have found it to be great for blending frozen drinks. The only downside is that it is quite loud, but given how powerful it is we are not put off by this in the least.

Sully: Bought about 2 weeks ago. Set up and take down takes like 3 seconds. Prepping my ingredients to putting the blender away can take as little as like 3 minutes if I'm doing a routine strawberry banana smoothie. It's powerful enough to make a smooth smoothie, no random ice chunks and stuff.

It has 2 blend settings and a pulse setting. I like how the blend settings pulse a few times to make sure anything thicker that gets stuck at the top gets to settle and into the blades path.

Easy to clean, easy to set up. The base has little suction cups to keep it from dancing across the counter. I love that the blend cups have a lid so you can make a smoothie and just pop the blades off, throw a cap on, and walk away.

Trina Gaston: This Ninja works really well. I was hesitant to order it because of a lot of negative reviews. Although, I did read one intelligent man’s review which made a lot of sense and that convinced me that I should definitely give this one a try.
1. Yes, It is loud when you are using it with ice. Very loud! But the results are worth it. Anyway it’s only for one minute… Cover your ears!!!
2. Very easy to clean. Each part is very carefully, And conveniently, designed.
3. To avoid negative results… DO NOT Ever overfill. ALWAYS clean each component completely. Make sure you let everything DRY thoroughly to Prevent mold or mustiness.
4. It’s really a nice looking Appliance. It also has little suction cups underneath of it to hold it in place. A very nice feature.
5. Enjoy!!! The creamiest, smoothest, smoothies!!! Absolutely no chunks of ice or pieces of fruit or vegetables. Just pure Smoothie Delight!!!
