Best Blender for fruit and veggie smoothies

  • I am considering either the Ninja Kitchen Pulse which comes with 3 16 oz personal cups to blend in. It has 700 wts. The other one I am looking at is the Nutri Bullet which has 600 wts. Have any of you used the Ninja Kitchen Pulse model? It is cheaper then the Nutri Bullet.

    Vitamix...... hands down (in my opinion :tongue:)


    (P.S in response to price, the best place to get it is a costco. And you can make way more than just smoothies in it. I use my every single day and can't imagine using anything else! Well worth the money.)

    My husband just bought me a "Ninja Professional 1000 watts" It is great! It will eat ANYTHING!!! (Frozen fruit, frozen broccoli, carrots, anything! ) He got it at Bed Bath & Beyond for about $100. I highly recommend! Good luck! :flowerforyou:
  • magic bullet works good on frozen fruit and ice cubes..I also like the fact that its in single serving size so its handy that way.

    I got the Ninja food processor about a year ago and absolutely LOVE it! Works almost as well as my sisters Vitamix.

    I have the Ninja...probably the cheapest one. Nothing super special for a ninja... Gets the job done. Me likes.

    I have a Ninja but am thinking of investing in a Vitamix because I buy raw juice a few times a week and it is so pricey.

    I only use the ninja for smoothies. Has anyone had luck using for juice? Can you?

    bump. Brought this one up before and found out the vitamix is about 500 dollars, so will consider a nutibullet, have used my magic bullet, about twice daily for last 4 yrs and works so well, just wonder WHY THE VITAMIX IS THE BEST. A lot of people say it is --- but why??

    I sums it up like this:

    Vitamix excellent, pricey but it blends everything and anything

    Ninja also great it's medium range my mother in law has it and loves it

    Nutri Bullet does the job right and is cheaper then the two above


    I personally have the Nutri Bullet and it's great, blends everything. My only complaint is you must water it down if it's too thick it will not blend. For example I sometimes add greekmyogurt instead of whey and it doesn't blend so I just add water and dilute a bit. Hope that helps.

    Hi,
    Usually after a work out, we do a Designer Whey Protein - (Protein Drink Chocolate or Vanilla) 100 calories and 1/2 banana, 4 oz of skim milk and ( scoop) Ice and blender.
    The whey protein has your vitamins in there, and Banana has potassium. YOU can also add a couple of Strawberries if you like them.
    we have managed to loose 21 pounds.
    Usually there are Two of us doing this: Designer Whey Protien - Protein Drink Chocolate or Vanilla, banana, 8 oz of skim milk blend, add ice health Scoop crush ice and add to big glasses.

    Vitamix, all the way

    Agreed. Once I get the money (school loan refunds ftw!) I am going to get a Vitamix. I have a juicer but I think the Vitamix is a better investment, you get all that nutritious pulp!
