I use the blender cups to make smoothies almost everyday. It works well and I like that it has a smoothie button. I just push it and can walk away to finish the ingredients for the second smoothie. I've only used the pitcher once, but it works. The blades for the pitcher are sharp. I accidentally dropped the blade and tried to catch it and it cut me pretty deep inn my pinky. My fault. I believe there is a warning about that in the manual. It's loud but seems like a nice blender.

Absolutely the best blender so far that I've owned Even though it's made of a really strong durable plastic and not glass it blends everything it's just like if you went into Starbucks and tried to order a smoothie or or frappuccino works wonders. For the price range you cannot beat it.

You want to talk about a sharp blade on a product, I laid the cutter barely against my skin and it cut me with no pressure at all, I felt like I had been targeted by ninja's, super sharp, incredibly fast and lots and lots of power, the extra cups and tops are great for a quick mix without having to use the big machine, I have recommended this unit to lots of friends and family

I love my new blender! I finally found a blender that really works for me. I really like that I can use the large container when making smoothies for the entire family. It’s very convenient having the personal containers when making individual smoothies.

Very Happy with my purchase, very simple to use, the cups are a big plus and I use them more that the big jar, Very powerful and the easy removable blades make it easy to clean and there is no waste of food trapped like in other blenders. I use it everyday and it is perfect for my bulletproof coffee. Buying at sam's club gave me the piece of mind that if it ever brake I can return and exchange if needed.

Sharp but somehow doesn't fully meet my expectation when using the large pitcher. The blades are indeed super sharp, but position of the 3 blades seems to leave much of what is in the bottom and at the top much chunkier and unevenly blended in. Maybe I'm missing something in the instructions? But it does make great shakes and smoothies.

Powerful, awesome bender with automatic cycles. Comes with 3 vessels for blending! Safe lock in place feature. Made milk shakes, smoothies, and iced drinks and I’m very impressed with its ability to completely crush the ice. Great value! Great blender!

I've tried all the top personal blenders, and this is easily the best one available. It has an incredible amount of power, and the Auto-iQ feature is really great for getting the perfect blend. The Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo with Auto-iQ will handle whatever you throw at it.

The Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System is a versatile and powerful unit that handles a variety of kitchen tasks like blending, food processing, and dough mixing. It generally delivers strong performance for everyday recipes, and the different attachments make it adaptable to many cooking needs. Cleanup is fairly easy thanks to dishwasher‑safe parts. Overall, it’s a solid option for those who want an all‑in‑one kitchen appliance.

The quality is evident in the materials used and way the motor runs. If you want to make a smoothie, you can add all of your ingredients, place it on, and press smoothie. It runs and pauses as needed to make sure that it is mixed well. The cups are large with a big opening. No leaks, lids lock in place
