We have been wanting a Ninja blender for a long time, and when our old blender quit us, we took the plunge. I am so glad we did! It is so easy to use, and most importantly, easy to clean!!! I love the settings, where I can start it, and continue cooking, and it starts/stops on its own. It’s a huge timesaver, and it does a fantastic job! With the old blender, we would have to shake the pitcher or stop it and stir the ingredients, but not this one. And better yet, I don’t need to use the immersion blender after using the Ninja 😊

It works great for making smoothies. The large container is square so food gets stuck in the corners. For example, mushrooms, i quater them before putting them in the blender. After using the pulse or medium (or any setting) I have large pieces in the corners and very tiny pieces around the blades. I have to dump all out and then pick out the large chunks and put them back in. Very annoying and time consuming.

Our Ninja is simply outstanding and is so easy to use to make a varitey of smoothies, drinks and food items. The preprogrammed features certainly takes the guess work out of manually setting the speeds and or time. Outstanding product. Only downside item is that it is louder than we anticipated,

Super powerful. Cups are thick and sturdy. I love the suction cups on the bottom of the blender to keep it from moving. I like that the controls light up if it is On so I know to turn it off. I got a super price of $80 which is less than some of the 'personal' sized blenders and I got 2 cups, 2 cup lids plus a big container with the powerful blade. Great purchase

This is the best thing a mom with infant or toddler can have! I can blend food for my baby who cannot stand broccoli or carrot chunks on his plate but loves it when I blend! And he also wont eat chunks of bananas but enjoys the mixed fruits smoothie! I am in Love ! And the Ice crusher is perfect for frozen drinks! I can also store left over drinks in the jars given the lids are perfect! It is loud however and startles anyone around but all in all I love!!!

The machine itself is very big. I have only used the cups so far. The blender works great. I don't like how on the cups the blade part screws on to the outside of the cup. But the lids screw in on the inside of the cup. Not a great design, in my opinion. That's all I have so far.

My husband & I had become addicted to smoothies our daughter would bring us each week. So when a Tropical Smoothie was built closer to us we would get 4 smoothies, 2 for now & 2 for the next day. So we we’re spending a fortune on smoothies that we so easily make at home now & add all the healthy goodies we had to pay extra for. We’re in our 80’s & have always had a blender, but NEVER had one we LOVE & use DAILY. This Ninja is absolutely amazing and I can’t wait to have friends over to make smoothies for treats. I always read the reviews positive negative before I purchase anything, and then make a decision. I couldn’t be happier with this ninja and the beautiful cups that come with it. I don’t even pay attention to the noise that everyone talks about, I am so intrigued with the power, and the ease, with which, this machine creates delicious treats/meal replacements. Prior to this blender I had to replace blades all the time because the frozen fruit is actually denser and harder on the blade than ice cubes. But this beauty just chews it up like nothing I’ve ever seen before. My only regret is that I didn’t purchase it sooner. This is absolutely the BEST blender I have ever used. It is so EASY to USE and so EASY to CLEAN. It will definitely be number ONE on my list for a wedding gift. One of the reviews I read talked about having Little counter space, well, we live in a fifth wheel camper so you can only imagine how little counter space we have available. But guess what… This beautiful ninja sits on my counter, and will never be put away because it gets used every day. It’s absolutely BEAUTIFUL besides, I can’t say enough good things about it but if you were considering this NINJA, just buy it - don’t hesitate. You won’t regret it since we have bought it, I have made smoothies daily. I would pay twice as much. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Did I say I love ……… that’s an understatement! It’s a necessity.

I finally have a great blender for making smoothies. It is excellent at crushing ice and I love how you just push a button and it starts and stops when it's done. However, it is very very LOUD. If you don't like noise, you probably should think twice about getting one.

If you are looking for a blender replacement as I was, this is it. The power behind this is incredible and I love the ease of use without a bunch of parts to clean. The blade has razor sharp blades up and down the stem that sits inside. It is separate so you pull it out and rinse it off. It makes smoothies with veggies and fruit easily. The 2 separate containers for smoothies and other quick drinks has its own blade in the lid and its just as powerful as the blender unit. I am so impressed and happy with this machine. The price is low too!!!

Great package and price. Great dependable product, like all my other Ninja products
