Ninja Professional Countertop Blender

If you are looking for a good all-purpose home blender, you are looking for something powerful. You probably will want to crush ice as well as mix foods, and a wimpy blender that you picked up for $20 just isn’t going to do the trick. For your purposes, you need a powerful machine that can handle all of the tasks you put to it, and do those tasks easily. At the same time, you don’t want to break the bank. You don’t want to spend $200 for a blender, that just doesn’t make sense. That’s where the Ninja Professional 72 Ounce Countertop Blender fits in.

A Powerful Home Blender At A Great Price

Price matters in almost anything. Unless you are blessed with more money than you need, over paying for a small kitchen appliance isn’t in the cards. One of the selling points of this blender is the price, it is almost always under $80 at retail. That’s about 25% less than blenders with similar power and features, making it a very good value.

What do you get for less than $80? To begin with, a very powerful motor. At 1000 watts, this unit has one of the larger motors to be found on any blender. This is important because a blender has to be able to chop and grind dense, heavy foods as well as to crush ice. Two parts of the blender will make this happen-the motor and the blades. An under powered motor will have the best of intentions but it will lack the ability to actually grind through a bowl of ice or some dense chunks of pineapple.

To go along with the strong motor is a 6 blade system that churns, chops and moves ingredients in the mixing bowl. Why is this important? If the food doesn’t move around while blending, you end up with some large chunks that never get chopped. You bought your blender to blend, not to dice a few bits of fruit in the bottom of the mixing bowl. The Ninja Countertop Blender has a great blade system.

Plenty Of Capacity

One drawback to some blenders is the size of the mixing or blending jar. If it’s too small, you end up having to make multiple batches of the recipe that you are using. That’s not the case with this unit, the mixing jar is a whopping 72 ounces (64 ounces liquid). This will handle any size recipe that you may try, go ahead and mix up a big batch of your favorite smoothie!

The mixing jar has easy to read measurements on the outside and has a sturdy handle. The drip proof pour spout sits on the jar tightly, you won’t have any surprised when you blend. Both pieces are easy to use and can go right into the dishwasher for easy cleaning.

A simple and easy to use control panel tells you exactly what you want to know. There are 3 speed settings, plus pulse. You won’t get frustrated by hard to understand programming instructions. Just choose a speed, press a button and you are good to go.
