CONCLUSION

PROS

Ninja SS351 Foodi Power Blender
Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart 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

• Modern design • More affordable than the A3500 • Three built-in program settings • Digital timer • Plus 17 preset programs when linked to the Vitamix Perfect Blend App • Ten variable speed • 64-ounce (1.89 L) low profile container • Great for crushing ice • Ounce and cup measurement markings • Transparent lid for a better view • The lid plug doubles as a measuring cup • Laser-cut hardened stainless steel blade • Smart Accessories compatible • BPA-free • 10 Year Warranty ensures you’ll get a good return on your investment. • Starter recipe book contains lots of inspiration for soups, dips, smoothies, and more. • Three reliable pre-programmed settings take care of the most common jobs automatically. • Variable Speed Controls – and Pulse feature – give you manual control over the texture when you need it. • The classic Vitamix design is given a 21st-century makeover. • Dishwasher-safe. • Quieter than many earlier Vitamix machines.

CONS

Ninja SS351 Foodi Power Blender
Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart 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

• It is very powerful there are no suction cups on the bottom to keep it from moving. • The container does not latch into place on the base. • People say it's very loud. • Because there are 4 blades, it can be a little difficult to clean in making peanut butter. • It’s not cheap • Classic switches tend to accumulate dust and food particles • Ingredients can get stuck on the side of the jar. • Doesn't automatically stop when finished. • The Ascent range of machines isn’t cheap, and neither is the A2500! • Quite bulky. You’ll need either a big storage cupboard or plenty of under-cabinet space to accommodate this blender.
