CONCLUSION

PROS

Ninja SS351 Foodi Power Blender
Vitamix 5200 Blender
Yes

• It is powerful. • It is great that it has three blades for making large quantities. • It is easy to clean. • Easy to clean because of the removable blade. • The design and pouring mechanism are nice. • Ice crusher button is a nice feature and works great. • This is a DRINK blender and it is exceptional at making perfect smoothies, turning ice to snow, and pulverizing most wet ingredients to a perfect consistency--no chunks. • Alcohol drinks with crushed ice and fresh fruit such as margaritas, etc. turn out FABULOUS and restaurant-quality consistency. • Smoothies are perfect and powders of any kind completely blend into drinks without chunks of ice or powder sticking to sides • It's decently quiet (for a blender) and I think it runs slightly quieter than most blenders. • It has suction cup "feet" that keep it from sliding around or vibrating excessively while in use. The unit is still easily lifted off the counter or moved to the store without effort. • The preset buttons for "smoothie/ice crush/ice-cream" take the guesswork out of everything. It turns on and off and stops at the right time automatically to avoid overheating and melting your ingredients.

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 SS351 Foodi Power Blender
Vitamix 5200 Blender
Yes

• Standing at nearly 17 3/4" tall, you likely won't be able to fit it assembled under your kitchen upper cabinets. • Power cord is only 32" long which is short. • This Ninja blender is for drinks or wet ingredients. If you are mixing dry ingredients or making HOT soups, you need to spend the extra $300+ for a Vitamix. This Ninja blender specifically indicates it is "NOT for hot liquids and DO NOT process dry ingredients" in it. • The lid is needed to operate this blender and is pretty clunky and awkward • The machine will not grind up the seeds from strawberries. So the little seeds are part of the drink when you are finished. • The lid gets stuck sometimes when closing. • The blender is louder than many blenders. • It can often take a long time, multiple cycles, to make smoothies • It’s a full-size countertop blender, it’s quite heavy and bulky • Can’t make hot soups • If you’re new to the Ninja family it may take some time to get used to • It’s a little loud • 1-year warranty. • This machine is quite complicated to assemble/disassemble and operate. • It comes with a very sharp blade and has BAD DESIGN from a safety perspective. • Blades usually become significantly dull within a few months of use which seriously reduces the quality of blending.

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).
