    I am in the market for a single-serve blender. I considered the Nutribullet but I've seen two or three videos now where people put them head to head with the Nutri Ninja, and the Nutri Ninja comes out ahead. I'm sure I'd be happy with a Nutribullet, though. But the whole blades breaking thing on the newer 900 series is a bit of a worry. The original Nutribullet doesn't have the issue, as far as I'm aware.

    I'm not sure what I'll do. I've yet to see a Nutri Ninja in my neck of the Canadian woods. Or a 900-series Nutribullet, for that matter.

    I absolutely love my Nutribullet and use it daily. I have the Pro 900 series.

    I make my own kefir, so I always use a cup of that for my liquid. Right now my favorite combination is one cup of spinach, one thick pineapple ring, half an orange, and half a banana. I also add chia and flax seeds along with two scoops of organic whey protein powder. I like to make sure I use one frozen fruit because I like my smoothies cold and not at room temperature. If I don't have any, I'll add a few ice cubes.

    4 oz. Pina colada mix, 2 oz of rum, add ice, blend, enjoy.

    Win!

    Um, yeah, ^ that! LOL

    I had one. Liked it while it lasted.

    But it's a piece of junk. The bearings in the extractor blade start to rust in a few months, leading to an unbearably loud noise when blending. And the rust starts to leak into your smoothie. Yes even the new and improved design is still the same.
    I've had the new design for almost a year and use it at least once a day, sometimes twice and don't have a problem. True for the 1st design, not 2nd.

    This one shows otherwise, not to mention the counter space difference. I'd stick with the NutriBullet.

    Now maybe against the Magic Bullet, that's a different story. They are not the same.

    I have magic bullet and I find that I don't like to use ice because it always seems to stay "icy". I use frozen fruit or raw fruit and add greek yogurt. It makes it nice and thick. I also use almond milk in mine. Freeze a cup of coffee for an hour if you want coffee flavored

    I love mine! I put whatever fruits I'm using in the freezer the night before and it still blends well, and it blends oatmeal perfectly.

    That is NOT a Nutri Ninja... That's a regular Ninja blender....

    Here's an example, from the same woman you posted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mecb4n_84_4
