The Ninja Ultima Blender was sent to us for review. No other bribes were exchanged. All opinions are my own and my kids’ 🙂 jaden A few weeks ago we released “First look at the Ninja Ultima Pro Blender” – here’s our full video review! This review has been long overdue! As my parents and brother can attest to, I’m a big fan of Vitamix and Blendtec (I’ve purchased and gifted units to both them) and it’s the ONE appliance that I’m always using in the kitchen. We make smoothies, soup, sauces, chop nuts and even snow. But it’s a pricey investment: Is it worth the money? Are there cheaper alternatives that work just as well? You’re just about to find out! Ninja recently came out with the Ninja Ultima Blender Plus for $259.00. It has a 1500 watt, 2.5 horsepower motor. All these watts and horsepower talk makes my head spin. In the end, I want to see the Ninja perform. Will it hold its own against the Vitamix? Ninja Ultima Blender Plus on Amazon: $259.00 + free shipping

I love my Ninja! It works better then a blender and I use it for all kids of things. From Slushies for my grandkids to chopping meats for sandwich spreads. This was a GREAT purchase. I initially bought it to help save money on baby food. We had a little girl and I felt like we were spending tons of money on baby food every week.

I got this after returning a Magic Bullet that wouldn't catch the motor after a few months. So far this is great with daily use. Love this product so far! I bought this to be able to make my meal replacement shakes and they blend so well and had no chunks! Would recommend this product! I have Huntington's disease and have trouble swallowing food. This thing blends frozen fruits ice, cooked meat. kitchenaid - 5ksb555ewh - blender artisan - blancVery happy with purchase.vitamix 6300 costco roadshow price This was a gift for someone elsekitchenaid mixer kv25mex After trying a few similar blenders, this is beyond expectations. hamilton beach blender parts b45

I've been using it everyday for 2 weeks to make smoothies (I'm a newbie) and it's SO EASY. I used the smaller mixer for my DIY beauty products and the larger mixer for mixed drinks and smoothies. Both blend ingredients smoothly and evenly. See the Top Rated food processors in our Food Processor Reviews.

The magazine rated both personal blenders that make smoothies and premium mega-blenders that can cost hundreds of dollars.

Consumer Reports tested each product's ability to make smoothies, puree, and crush ice, and rated each blender for convenience, noise and durability. Among the 58 premium blenders, the top-scorer since at least June 2010 is the $450 Vitamix 5200 (pictured on the right in the above photo), according to Consumer Reports' senior editor Daniel DiClerico. "Besides acing our frozen drinks, puree, and ice crush tests, it's one of the few models that makes hot soup and blitzes whole fruits and vegetables into smooth, creamy juice," Consumer Reports said, as shown in a video on its website. But this year, the $60 Ninja Master Prep Professional QB1004, a blender and food chopper, shares the top spot - and a score of 91 out of 100 - with its much more expensive competitor. That Ninja Master out-scored the more expensive $650 Vitamix Professional Series 750, which scored 81 and scored "excellent" for its ability to puree, crush ice and in the durability test. As for smaller, personal blenders, Consumer Reports put them to the same tests and found they each had different strengths.

"The $35 Back to Basics Blender Express BPE3BR performed superbly across all tasks, but it didn't pass our durability test, which involves crushing successive batches of ice," the magazine said. (That blender is pictured on the left in the photo above.) Out of 12 personal blenders that Consumer Reports rated, eight Hamilton Beach products ranging from $20 to $25 shared the top rating in that category, scoring 55 out of 100 possible points. When asked if a household, with the kitchen space and money, should fork over more money to buy a premium blender over a personal blender, DiClerico says, "Definitely." "It's incredible how much you can do with a top-performing blender like the Vitamix," he said. "All the usual stuff like smoothies and shakes and frozen drinks, but also things like hummus and soup, even cappuccinos and hot chocolate. These can be incredibly versatile machines, and they should last for many years, making them well worth the investment." Here are lists of the top-scoring 10 blenders for both categories, out of 100 possible points.
