High quality Blender
I LOVE this blender. It has done everything I’ve asked of it and more. I’ve pureed veggies for soup, made fruit smoothies and protein shakes to Perfection! Definitely worth the price. It’s very durable and highly functional.

Best blender ever
I have owned many blenders in my lifetime and this is the best one by far, even better than the $400 one that broke after two years. It blends fast and good. I made applesauce without peeling the apples and it blended smooth in an instant. Great for smoothies; handles ice like a champ. Just be careful handling the blades — they are very sharp.

owned 6 weeks
I’m a healthcare professional and bought this after researching the competition (i.e., “Vita-Mix). After reading through a gazillion comments and reviews (including CR who rates the Ninja #2) I opted for the lower priced Ninja. I have used mine twice a day for the 6 weeks I have owned it, I use it for making smoothies. I blend for health, I have a morning fruit and berry smoothie and I have an afternoon veggie smoothie. Blending is a really convenient way to get in all your servings of fruit and veggies each day without removing the (very important) fiber. So far, I love my Ninja. I have had stuff made with a Vita Mix in the past, but have never done a side by side comparison, though I can think of a few differences that are meaningful for me. One, the Vita Mix generates heat. They use it as a selling feature, that you can use it to make soups, but I like my smoothies cold, so it’s not something I look for in a blender. Secondly, Vita Mix seems to win in all the comparisons with Ninja on smoothness, or thoroughness of blending. The only reason I knocked one star off the Ninja is because I have noticed that my smoothies are a bit chewier after several weeks of blender use. I attribute that to the fact that Ninja relies (apparently) on their sharp blades, which naturally dull with use-especially when blending frozen berries or ice (which both of my smoothies contain). I’ve noticed a subtle change in texture, no chunks, but definitely not a fine blend. My understanding is that Vita Mix has dull blades that work for years, they do not rely so much on sharpness as they do on speed? The other thing (in addition to heat) that you get with a Vita Mix is aeration (foam), which I do not notice with the Ninja. My smoothies are full of fruit and veggies, so they are full of fiber. If you are okay with having some noticeable fiber in your blend over time, the Ninja is a great deal at about 1/5 the cost. If that matters to you, expect that you will have it in time (I started to notice it after about 25 blends). The blender cleans very easily and is simple to use. I’ve never had to remove the top to tamp stuff down and I use 3 cups of leafy greens like kale and arugula, as well as whole carrots, celery, apples, and never have chunks. Overall it’s a great machine. I cannot rate longevity since I’ve only had it 6 weeks, but so far I’m very pleased.Update: It’s January 2018, I owned the Ninja about 3 months and ended up getting a Vita Mix. I still stand by my original review, but there is a difference. The Ninja starts out pretty great, but then over time things do no blend as well. I drink 2 smoothies a day (one veggie, one fruit), so I use it a minimum of 2x a day. Over time I started calling my Ninja smoothies: “grainies.” The blades start out very sharp, and the technology depends on that, but they dull with use and it shows in the results. The Vita Mix does not depend on blade sharpness, but power, it pummels everything to pieces (itty bitty pieces). I am amazed at the flour I can make with it. Also, the heat i mentioned is not a factor but a feature. Most things are blended in less than a minute (35 seconds often), so nothing really gets warm unless you leave it on in order to generate heat. The Ninja is a good blender, especially for the cost, but I don’t think one can fairly compare it to a Vita Mix, it’s like comparing apples and oranges.

Quality
Best blender ever , is durable , big , and easy to use and clean , I recomend this to everyone.

Worked for 4 days. Since then there has been problems and the seller Grabmore has not cared to look into this since the last 4 months. The funny part is the sale happened on 8th April. and the return date is 16th April, by which date the product wudnt have reached. So basically this is no warranty. May be the product works for some, but definitely avoid this seller.

As for the blender it’s self, it’s absolutely amazing 🤯 mind blown how good it is! Like for instance, if you want it for it’s ice crushing, you seen the advert and thought hmmm no way its that good… well I can tell you it definitely IS that good, it seriously does turn ice in to perfect snow like consistency, it’s exactly as good as the advert says, in just 2 minutes you can turn shop bought ice into completely lump free powdered snow, perfect for slushies or even sorbet ice cream, so smooth! Pretty much anything you put in there just add some ice and you have the perfect smoothie! Yes it’s really that good, it’s the best blender I’ve ever owned! It’s super easy to use, super easy to clean, just amazing.But… here is the bad bits, it’s noisy, I mean really REALLY noisy!! You definitely can’t use this anywhere near someone that’s sleeping and not wake them up!! So late night smoothies or slushies are a big no no. Then there is the price, its about double the price it should be, this should be priced at about £80 max, but it cost me way more, and to be honest I feel a bit robbed there. One last thing, if you buy this, just be super careful not to touch the blades, they are RAZOR sharp! Within just a few days of having it, I did accidentally slice myself open, they are crazy sharp, so be careful!!If you want one of the best ice to snow devices, this is it.
