Ninja SS151 TWISTi Blender DUO, High-Speed 1600 WP Smoothie Maker & Nutrient Extractor* 5 Functions Smoothie, Spreads & More, smartTORQUE, 34-oz. Pitcher & (2) To-Go Cups, Gray

After enjoying smoothies made in a small $20.00 blender, I knew I needed more horsepower if I was to continue on the smoothie production beltway! I gave the small smoothie maker/blender away and ordered this giant (not as in size but as in reputation), but only after my usual reading reviews and researching on-line. My new Ninja TWISTi arrived very quickly and was exquisitely packed so that there seemed no possibility that any part could be broken this side of its being run over by an 18 wheeler! Assembly was quick, straight forward, and easy (I always read any accompanying information). Excluding the motor base and cord (of adequate length), all of the components are dishwasher safe. The Ninja TWISTi comes with two clear 24oz plastic to-go cups each with a lid. The 34oz clear plastic pitcher seems to hold a wealth of ingredients and turns out large, creamy smoothies (think DQ hold the spoon in the concoction!). That clear plastic is thick, heavy duty, and quite substantial but also imparts a certain satisfaction as you gaze upon your creation during its last seconds in the pitcher before taking that first delightful sip or spoonful, whichever you prefer. This powerful "giant" is 1600WP with 5 preprogrammed functions that take the guess work out of processing; the choices of texture control enable you to create the smoothie of your dreams! The twist tamper aids in pushing the yet unblended ice/frozen ingredients further down into the blade to facilitate the chopping process.I loaded the pitcher to the maximum level with frozen fruit- strawberries, blueberries and banana chunks, then added 1 cup of fat free (sweetened with Splenda) Greek yogurt, 1 scoop of protein powder, and finally added about 1/2 cup of milk. I pressed the button, and she was off to the races! (As an aside, I should have put the milk and yogurt in first, but in my excitement my rational brain went into shut down mode). I used the tamper, admittedly with difficulty because of some arthritis in my hand, to send the fruit deeper in the blade abyss. But before I knew it, my crimson concoction was complete and awaiting the taste test. Yes, it was delicious, but the texture was nothing short of professional. Not only was the texture icily smooth, but my smoothie was also glacially cold, lusciously creamy, and enjoyably yummy. After finishing the entire "giant" smoothie, yes all of it, the disassembly of the Ninja TWISTi was simple and quick. I did not put the components in the dishwasher, but opted to wash them by hand, let them dry, and reassemble my Ninja TWISTi tucking it into its now place of honor (previously occupied by the toaster) in the pantry to await accompanying me on my next smoothie adventure. This entire experience from investigating to operating to cleaning was problem free, super simple, and seemingly quick as The Flash. Neither me nor my family could be happier with our new "Smoothie Queen"! I highly recommend this appliance and encourage anyone who is interested in purchasing a similar appliance to investigate this one. As the saying goes, "Try it; you'll like it"!Top 3 Likes:-Quality construction-Fast and efficient-PowerfulTop 3 Dislikes:-Difficult to manipulate the tamper effectively for those with arthritis-The pitcher does not lock solidly into place with a click-Only two dislikes!

This blender does an incredible job on smoothies and frozen drinks. No random large pieces of ice like I've experienced from other brands.

Works great! And definitely great for the price. Blades are tough and can be used from making sauces to crushing ice. I make smoothies, sauces, eggs, etc in it. I love that both a single serve and the pitcher come with it.

Love this! Have not purchased a ninja product I wasn’t happy with.

I started making smoothies last year and bought a cheap $20 Hamilton Beach blender. It served it's purpose but took forever to blend the frozen fruits and vegetables and was always 'chunky' no matter how much I blended. A friend suggested I try the Ninja but I didn't want to be limited by the size of the bullet as sometimes I want to make a smoothie for two. The Ninja Twist is the happy medium. If it is just for me I can use the bullet and for a larger portion the standard blender container that holds 36 oz. Everything is automatic. You just push the 'smoothie' button and so far it blends it to perfection. Compared to my old $20 blender I can't believe how smooth and creamy the texture is coming out of the blender. The only downside is the lid on the larger container. It is a pain to clean with so many nooks for debris and I find the safety locks a bit of an overkill. I get it, it's a high powered blender so you want to keep the lid on. But it's not a rocket ship. In spite of that overall I am really pleased with the purchase. Sometimes you can't skimp on a product. While I didn't want to spend $300 on a vitamix, the Ninja was the perfect midpoint and exceeded by expectations

Super potente la licuadora

good quality!!

I couldn’t be happier with this purchase! My daughter follows someone on TikTok who uses this to make smoothies as part of their journey to a healthier lifestyle, and after seeing how well it worked for them, I decided to upgrade from the cheap blender I had before. Let me tell you, it was absolutely worth it! The quality is fantastic, and I love that it comes with multiple pieces, making it super versatile for different types of blending. Whether I’m making smoothies, protein shakes, or even blending ingredients for recipes, it handles everything effortlessly. Unlike my old blender, which always left behind chunks no matter how long I blended, this one blends everything to a perfectly smooth consistency every time. I never have to worry about biting into an unblended piece of fruit or ice, which makes the experience so much better. It’s powerful, easy to use, and has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality blender that actually does what it promises, this is the one to get!
