CONCLUSION

PROS

Ninja BL660 Professional Countertop Blender
Vitamix 5201 XL Variable Speed Blender
Yes

• Easy to clean. 3 blade stick lifts right out & you can wash the blender without fear of cutting yourself. • The smaller single-serve is supposed to mix seeds & things but I haven't tried that yet. • 3 blades all on 1 post at different heights to mix everything in a blender (instead of just 1 blade at the bottom). • Very safe because it won't let you turn it on until the lid is snapped on to prevent accidents. • Blends incredibly quickly. This thing was made to crush frozen fruit • Easy to use...simple buttons and clear blend options • Sturdy • Suction cups on the bottom of blender for no-slip usage • Perfect addition to my kitchen. • This blender has 3 blades which makes it crazy powerful. • It is not as noisy. • Very easy to clean. • The single-serve blender cups are to die for. • Fill it with ice and ice cream and nothing else and it will blend it without any intervention at all.

Yes

• Storing this blender is in no way a hassle for it sits right under your cabinet and can be left in one place on the counter where you need it. Because of its compact size, the most powerful Vitamix motor fits in the standard 18" space. • The cookbook is convenient and filled with scrumptious recipes. • Function wise it is great and can easily blend everything. • This blender is so powerful that it can even blend and destroy chia seeds. • Quality and long-lasting materials are used on this blender which makes it a durable appliance in your kitchen. • It gives you results with a smooth consistency from the toughest ingredients. • It can crash ICE. • Versatility like making salsa, smoothies, ice cream, dough, to hot soups. • Very powerful and can blend almost anything. • Easy to make nut butter or thicker recipes like hummus. • Large capacity and holds a lot in a batch. • 10 variable speed controls. • Compatible with several useful Vitamix accessories. • Works with wet and dry blades. • Easy to clean with self-cleaning function. • Very durable and reliable. • Built to last with quality parts. • Includes a tamper for harder to blend mixtures. • Excellent 7-year warranty.

CONS

Ninja BL660 Professional Countertop Blender
Vitamix 5201 XL Variable Speed Blender
Yes

• Awkward to fill up sometimes due to their blade design. • Too tall, may not fit some countertop spaces • Outdated design • It’s a bit complicated to use • Can’t make hot soups • A rather old model • A tad noisy • Complimentary lids for the single-serve cups aren’t sealable • 1-year warranty. • Not the smoothest blend with certain ingredients, specifically leafy greens and things like flax seeds. You get better results with the single-serve cups though. • Removable blade assembly unit means you have to take care when storing or cleaning, especially if you have kids around.

Yes

• For a juice blender, this appliance is kind of expensive and overpriced but with all the good features, it definitely is worth it. • Unfortunately this is not dishwasher safe; therefore cleaning it is a chore. It is wise though to clean it immediately after blending for then the increase easily comes off. • There is a bit of a learning curve needed when using this blender but it becomes fun after you get the hang of it. • A few people complain about the noise and loudness. • Not the most affordable blender. • Pitcher is difficult to pour for some customers. • Harder to clean because blades aren’t supposed to be removed. • No pre-set programs like the Vitamix 750 Professional Series or other models. • No pulse mode, but can still do pulsing jobs. • Plastic top can be annoying. • Fairly bulky and large (you can buy low profile container).
