LOVE - but expected it to hold up a little better......
Works amazingly well. I love Ninja products. BUT - I purchased this blender in September 2023 and about 2 months ago I noticed the pitcher started to leak. Turns out there are 2 cracks at the base of the pitcher, just around where the blade assembly sits. So, I am purchasing another blender since a replacement pitcher costs almost as much as a new blender! I am buying the 3-year protection plan this time......

This is an amazing high speed blender! I just love it! It is very strong and makes easy work of ice cubes, smoothies, and has preset menu. It must be on a countertop to grip because it's so strong. Then I put hot water a little soap and blend it for "self-cleaning". It is too tall for my dishwasher, but it comes out great with a fast rinse. People are always talking about their Vitamix. In the old days, maybe, but this one is far superior to the one Vitamix I bought at Costco that lasted a week. I got my money back and didn't know what to do. I saw a Ninja at a friend's house and I decided to try it. It's on sale for84.00 dollars...buy two!!! Amazing product!

Color: Dark GreySize: 1400 Peak WattsVerified Purchase
Over the years I keep buying like cheap 30$ blenders from WalMart to make smoothies in, as an easy way to eat more fruits and vegetables, but I get tired of those because they make more of what I like to call "chunkies". Kind of hard to hide broccoli in a fruit smoothie when you all of a sudden start chewing on a broccoli stem.

I was going to get Vitamix, but they are just too expensive for me to justify at this point in my life. I talked to a couple of different people and they suggested the Ninja brand. Looked into them and picked this one, mostly cause of the IQ setting and the Smoothie button, because I don't want to have to sit there and pulse and guess, I just want a smoothie! Settled on this model and I'm so glad I got it. It's not that expensive but it works amazingly! I want to try some of the other things too like soups and stuff, probably look into that more in the winter.

Also I like that it's really easy to clean, that was another issue with cheaper blenders. You have to like take so much apart on cheap ones to make sure you clean it all and let it dry. With this blender it takes me less than 10 seconds to clean it out, and worse case if I wanted to I can put all the parts into the dishwasher.

I’m coming from one of those old push-down blenders, so I absolutely love the convenience of just pressing a button to make a smoothie with the Ninja BN751. The Auto-IQ programs are a game-changer.
It’s so easy to use, and I love that I can walk away while it blends everything perfectly.

However, I have to say, this thing is loud—like, really loud. It blends like a beast, but you’ll definitely want to make sure no one’s sleeping when you use it. That aside, the performance is fantastic, and it crushes ice and frozen fruits with ease.

Overall, I’m happy with the purchase.

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2023
Color: Dark GreySize: 1400 Peak WattsVerified Purchase
I purchased this blender to replace a much older (and cheaper) Ninja blender I've had for what seems like a million years now. It still works, but it just never quite had the power needed to blend ice into a texture that wasn't gritty and crunchy. I'll be honest, purchasing this new Ninja blender was definitely an impulse buy. I was literally at home drinking a Starbucks Frappuccino when I said to myself, "I sure wish I could make these at home".

Long story short, this blender DOES have the power to replicate your favorite frozen drinks in terms of texture. No grit. No sand. Just smooth ice. It's fantastic. I've used this blender to make smoothies, slushies, and frappes that always come out amazing. But here's the thing: I ended up returning it and getting a Vitamix instead. And there are a few reasons why:

What really bothered me about this blender was the container design. Almost everything about it is frustrating. My old Ninja blender container, nearly 10 years old, had very similar issues because the fundamental design is nearly identical. The plastic pitcher has a long blade attachment that loosely fits inside and takes up an enormous amount of room. Getting everything you want blended in the container at once can be challenging if you are using big chunks of things like ice cubes or pineapple. Oftentimes I had to blend my ingredients in segments to make room for more.

This type of blade design is also annoying if your ingredients end up compacted at the bottom. There's no ability to tamper. And if you pull the blade out when stuff is in there, it's not going back in until you've loosened up that area. To reduce the likelihood of getting ice or other ingredients compacted, it's necessary to ensure you have plenty of liquid in the container before blending and add frozen things (including ice) last. Chopping ice first and adding liquids after is a big no-no.

Which brings me to another concern I had regarding the blade, and that is longterm durability. You see, there are typically two types of blades you can find in a blender: ones that chop/slice and ones that pulverize. These long blades are designed to slice through ingredients and over time, especially with hard ingredients like ice, the blades will start to dull. I have no doubt the machine itself will last a long time, but the blades will wear out quickly depending on how often you use it. If you only blend OCCASIONALLY then I think you'll be ok. But if you blend ice daily I think it's worth investing in a blender with a better blade design and better warranty (like Vitamix). Otherwise, you'll need to sharpen the Ninja blades yourself (or replace them) as they dull in order to ensure consistent performance.

For comparison, Vitamix blades are dull by design; they sit at the bottom of the container and pulverize from below. It also allows you to fill the entire pitcher without this annoying obstacle in the way. Unlike the Ninja they cannot be removed, but Vitamix offers a 5, 7, or 10 year warranty depending on the model. It sounds dumb, but I compare these different designs to washing machines: the Ninja would be a top-load machine and the Vitamix would be front-load. The two drums are very different. In any case, I decided I did not want to deal with the Ninja blade long-term since I blend daily.

The other thing that really bothered me was the handle design. It's just like my old Ninja. It has a black plastic cover that is screwed onto the clear handle. This creates a hollow, and NOT airtight space where water gets trapped when cleaning. Regardless of whether a blender is dishwasher safe or not, I only wash them by hand. So to constantly see a clean, dry pitcher that has water drops trapped in the handle bothers me to no end. Sure, you can unscrew the plastic cover to dry it out, but who wants to do that every time they wash it? Not me!

At this price point, this is a solid blender and does a great job. But I only recommend it for casual use. Daily use I think will benefit greatly from a better quality blender that, while initially more expensive, will likely save money longterm since blades will last longer and pitchers won't get water trapped in them.

It feels like I’ve been on an endless quest to find the perfect smoothie blender. They either fail to mix the contents sufficiently, or make such a racket that I can barely tolerate the noise.

Enter the Ninja. While not as silent as its namesake, it’s quiet enough. But what’s most important is that this deadly assassin comes equipped with the right blades to finish the job. They’re stacked vertically, so they slice through fruit and ice with ease. A design flaw of most blenders is placing the blades at the bottom, which neglects contents stacked above.

The Ninja also has a dedicated “Smoothie” button, which offers a program that automatically starts and stops the blades turning over a period of about one minute to ensure a fully mixed product.

Perfection every time.

Muy buen producto, me llegó en las mejores condiciones, y respecto a su uso es fácil y muy buena, solo que no esperen moler algo como chile sin agua.

I use this blender to make my shakes/smoothies/green drink every morning. Cleans up nice & looks good sitting on my counter lol. I haven’t used the ice cream function yet but when the grandkids come we will. Go Ninja!!!

If you live in UAE don’t buy it because the plug will not work.
