I had the smaller less powerful one whcih I already thought was great but this one is even better which I thought was impossible. I bought this blender because it was bigger than my other Ninja Blender. This one is exceptional and worth the price. It blends and liquifies to perfection. I use it with the smoothie option and it exceeded my expectations. It is worth every penny.

I bought this when it was on sale and I wanted to make Smoothies. This does the job extremely well! I don’t like pulp and I put a whole peeled mandarin orange and some fruit with spinach and it came out absolutely delicious! No pulp and very smooth! I will say it’s very loud but it’s only about a min of loudness. The small blender attachment for the cups is good if you use powdered smoothies or want to refresh your already made smoothie.

I bought it for my daughter as a Birthday gift, she had been hinting for a while that she wanted any Ninja product. She was so happy she use it every day, I mean every single day (LOL) She's happy, I'm happy, best gift ever and for the perfect price.

So far I really like THIS Nina blender. This is my third blender in less than two years. The first still works it just wasn’t great at making smoothies. The second, a quiet blender, had all kinds of issues. I’ve now used this one about 10-15 times to make smoothies. Positives- It is not as loud as some. Because of the three tier blade it blends super quick. It is easy to secure the blender to the base and remove. I have yet to have any issues with leaks. The lid secures easily so I am not concerned with food coming out the top. It has a safety feature that if not assembled properly it will not start. Rinses off easily. Less positive - though it does have a pour spout that opens on the lid, pouring smoothies can be challenging, especially if they are kind of thick. The blender is all plastic which so far has not been an issue. I worry that it could crack or have premature wear.

My nutribullet just stopped working after several years of faithful service and I decided to give the Ninja a try. Well, it is absolutely fantastic!!! It is powerful and surpassed my expectation, The increased capacity is awesome, now a blend a large batch and can refrigerate for later. Love it!!

I love this so much that I have now bought this same package for my daughter last year and then for my other daughter last week (she begged for it after seeing mine). It has earned its place in my kitchen for coveted counter space and is one of the few appliances to stay out all the time. I started drinking smoothies for breakfast, and this is simply the best way to do it. No mess. Literally, I just rinse off the blade and that is it. There is NO cleanup. When you compare the horsepower on this machine with anything else on the market, it's like apples and...well, teeeny baby apples. :) This thing has 2 to 3 times as much horsepower as the others. I had a choice between the Ninja that was only the smoothie maker and it came with the 32-oz blender cups or paying a little more and getting this DUO with the 24-oz blender cups. I love the blender, so I got this (all three times when I bought it). Most of the time I really want a bigger smoothie (and yet, I've lost really quite a lot of weight drinking even the large fruit smoothies). So, 24 ounce might be big enough for most people, but I ended up buying replacement cups at a bigger size. I still would buy this set just so I could have the blender. Speaking of the blender, this one solves the problem that I've always had with blenders where you have to stick a spoon down in there to get things to mix up halfway because they don't blend evenly unless it is just liquid. That doesn't happen with this. The stuff that is on the top smooshes down to the bottom like magic. It just works perfectly throughout. It crushes ice better than anything you could ever imagine. So, I sound like a paid infomercial, right? I'm NOT. I paid my hard-earned money for these. I bought them repeatedly because they are great.

The blender and dual drink/shake mixer works well. We like spinach in our shakes, but hate those little flakes. With this system there are no flakes, everything is pulverized so we get the full nutritional value without the little chunks. The price is a bit steep, but it seems very well made. Time will tell.

Love it!!! Great purchase & this blender does everything I wanted & more. I especially love the interchangeable mini bottles and the fact that you can blend or store the contents in the bottles. Best of all my granddaughter & I broke it in making smoothies for her birthday!

Had to get a new base unit sent out covered by warranty because the switch that the cups activate when you twist it on the base, was assembled in the wrong direction and not allowing the cups to activate the system. New base was shipped and received in about 2 days. Excellent customer service from Ninja company... Awesome unit!

I bought this primarily to make smoothies, it does not liquefy the ingredients. Has many chunks and grit.
