We came from an affordable nutribullet 900 - that thing was loud! But it pulverised our smoothies completely - totally smooth, no particles detectable at all despite the nuts, seeds and frozen fruit in the recipe. The Ninja on the other hand - it doesn't matter how long we run it for, which mode (ice crush, max crush, regular, manual pulse etc.) It just can't achieve the same level of consistency - which is it's one job. There are always chunks left in it and nowhere near as smooth as our cheap, trusty old (but noisy) nutribullet. Which brings me to the issue of noise - this is promoted as being 'the quiet one'. And it is substantially quieter than our nutribullet, but the nutribullet was also old with worn bearings which make any blender noisy...and it will happen to the Nutribullet eventually as well. But there are a few things which baffle me about the Ninja which could easily have been done better - the plastic bucket which drops over the smoothie cup is just exactly that...a simple plastic bucket, with a poorly designed rubber gasket around the base. which simply sits freely over the cup. 1. Why didn't they make use of the lock-in fins which are there for the larger attachment to properly secure the bucket to the base. When the thing gets moving, eventually that bucket starts to rattle and vibrate and makes a heck of a racket. You can imagine how much racket and amplification a stiff plastic bucket provides when whirring against the hard vibrating plastic of the smoothie maker base. 2. Why doesn't the rubber gasket wrap around the inside edge of the bucket - it is the inside edge that gets it's rattle on and creates all the noise, so having it shrouded in rubber would effectevilt eliminate the noise. Doing so would provide a bit more 'lock-on' and reduce the vibrations made by the bucket. Other surprising aspects for a smoothie maker at this price point: 3. The motor is under-powered. Only 800W compared to the significant;y cheaper ones going around which are 900W. 4. The blender blade in the smoothie cup is too small compared to the nutribullet - it contributes to the chunks being left behind. Hoping the next iteration addresses these shortcomings - I'll be looking for aftermarket mods in the meantime but I'm not hopeful.

I've been using the single cup to make smoothies with frozen fruit and protein powder, produces wonderfully creamy smoothie bowls, the kids love it. The noise reduction cover works really well, makes it a lot quieter. The larger cup chops vegetables, nicely and quickly for cooking. Assembly and cleaning are easy.
