I always wanted a vitamix but settled for a ninja. My parents surprised me with the Vitamix for my birthday. I had both side by side and actually like my ninja better. It did the same job blending smoothies, the ninja seemed to do it with more ease and at a third of the cost. I'm a fan of the ninja. Love the smoothie feature. The ninja is more compact and takes up much less room. I'm definitely team Ninja.

I just recently bought this blender so I can not speak to longevity. It is a very powerful blender. I have only used it so far to make smoothies in the smaller containers. The small containers are just the perfect size for a large smoothie for one. I have even made homemade salad dressing in the smaller containers. I thinking making mayonnaise in them would be great. One design flaw that I noticed when working with the smaller containers is that when making smoothies in the smaller containers, the rim of the container fills with whatever you are mixing within the lid that contains the blade. When you go to put on the drinking cap, the cap screws on the inside of the container, thus leaving the liquid on the outside threads exposed. Other than that, I am very happy with how strong it is and how easily it crushes ice and blends the ingredients.

Works very well and it’s not nearly as loud as my old blender. The pitcher has a large capacity and I like the locking lid feature. I was about to buy a very expensive Breville but I thought I’d try this first. I’m glad I did and I’ll just stick with this one.

This blender is perfect for making smoothies, which is the primary reason I bought it. It handles frozen fruit and ice with ease! I have used it every day since I bought it. The pitcher attachment is great for mixing cocktails like daiquiris and margaritas, and I use the smaller tumbler attachments for smoothies on the go. I am super pleased with this purchase! Highly recommend.

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.

I had a blendtech blender but opted for a newer one and this Ninja is amazing.. I use the single cups for my shakes and they are blended perfectly to include frozen fruit and ice. Easy to put onto the main blender and take off with the single cup ready to add a lid and drink.

I bought this blender when there was a $20 instant savings on it. The normal price was $100 and everywhere else was saying that it was 120 or $129. This was a steel for the price that I got it for. I have always wanted a ninja blender. I like that when I blend up my smoothies it blends very good. I even accidentally added dates that had seeds in them and even blended up the seeds really well. I only had to toss a couple of the seeds through a drainer.

Love this blender, I only wish I hadn’t waited so long to buy it! I no longer have chunks of frozen fruit in my smoothies and no big blender pitcher to wash since smoothies are made in the drinking glass itself. I now use this blender to make things like pesto and leave the big clunky food processor in the cabinet. Great purchase. Of course it went on sale a few days after I bought it!!

Made with quality material, feel and look great. Happy with this product and impressed with the ease of use. Like the safety side that this product has been integrated with where the lid literally has to lock into place in order to operate the blender. Highly recommend the product.

We were looking for a new blender that would make great smoothies. Was leaning toward the VitaMix, but just couldn't with the price that they are. Saw this one $30 off at Sam's and, after a bit of research, bought it. It has worked great for our smoothies with frozen fruits and fresh veggies. Not even a small chunk of anything is left; it is all perfectly smooth. The 2 extra cups are great for taking to work in the morning. Also pulverizes ice cubes to make snow cones with super fine snow, not the chunky kind we are all used to. Overall am happy so far with this purchase.
