    I am not an expert of writing blender reviews as this is my first blender, ever. I haven't played much with it beside making smoothies every other day, which included kale, spinach, ginger, spinach mix, banana, frozen berries and protein powder. Freshvac - Nice feature but sometimes it takes more than a minute (when using a pitcher), which is not a big deal. Is it worth it? Not a must have but I am happy with it as color is rich but not sure if taste is different when comparing with smoothie which was made without using freshvac. 2 glasses- they come with it which are great and convenient for someone who is making only small 1-2 glasses of smoothie instead of using a pitcher. Functionality - out of 20 times so far, I had seen once when some greeny leafs weren't fully blended (maybe due to overfilling the bottle). Satisfied so far!!

    The Smartest Blender You Could Possibly Imagine

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This Ninja Duo Smart Screen blender makes Smoothies, Purees or just about anything you could possibly think a blender capable of doing. It just does it better than you ever imagined a blender could do things. It includes a FreshVac system, which is truly unique and helps with nutrient and vitamin extraction during the blending process, by removing the air in the Pitcher or Single Serve cups. Simply place the battery operated FreshVac Pump on either the included Pitcher or Cups and touch a button. The FreshVac removes the oxygen in the canister, then just blend away and you'll be amazed at how effective and better looking your blended concoction will be. It's not just better looking, it's smoother, with less foam and it really does taste better than the smoothies I made with my NutriNinja (which this replaces). According to the manufacturer, the blade system better extracts vitamins and nutrients from fruits and vegetables. It comes really nicely packaged, with 2 20 oz. single serve FreshVac cups with lids, a 72 oz. FreshVac pitcher, 6 AA batteries (for the FreshVac Pump), the 1400 Peak Watt motor base, removable blade assembly and a recipe book. With Smart Screen Technology, at a touch of a setting on the screen, you get customized power and speed via 7 pre-set Auto-iQ programs to achieve the perfect result for the job with no guesswork. It's smart. It's effective. It just works! The feet on the blender are suction feet. This is great. With 1400 Watts of Peak power, you'll never have to worry about the blender walking around your counter top. All the parts are dishwasher safe. I've been a Ninja customer for a long time. Based on my personal experience, Ninja's are simply the best. They're versatile. They're well made. And they last and last. This new system is just a much more intelligent take on blending that will make my morning smoothies taste better and healthier. What more could one ask or hope for?

    A smoothie lover’s dream machine

    This blender is a substantial upgrade to standard blenders. First of all, it’s a Ninja system so it has a 1400-watt motor that can be used to blend anything. I’ve had a couple of Ninja systems and can’t say enough about having the more powerful motor than standard consumer blenders. What makes this system so unique is the Freshvac technology that’s employed to make smoothies have less foam and a richer taste. The system consists of the 72-ounce blender pitcher, 2-20 ounce single serve Freshvac cups and the Freshvac pump. A couple of things to note about this system: the main pitcher and single serve cups are made out of heavy-duty plastic and the pump requires 4AA batteries in order to operate it. These are ‘cons’ in my opinion because if you want to blend hot liquids, you need to wait for them to cool down before blending them. I would be happy if at least the main 72-ounce pitcher was made from glass. The Freshvac pump needing batteries is more of an inconvenience to me. I would rather see it be a recharge able device than one that uses consumable batteries. You do have the option of using an optional AC power cord, but I’d rather it be a cordless, rechargeable device. Aside from those small issues with the design, I think the Ninja Duo Blender does a great job with mixing and blending drinks, purees, and anything else you throw at it. The Freshvac technology was a new adventure for me as I’d never even heard of it before I got this system. That said, I definitely can tell a difference with the finished product when I remove the oxygen from a smoothie versus when I leave it in. The texture was much smoother than when you don’t use the vacuum. This is a big win for me as texture is something that really bothers me — especially when it comes to blended drinks. Even though this is a sophisticated system with lots of parts (at least more than just a single blender), the Ninja Duo is well worth the time it takes to learn the system. I can recommend this system to anyone who likes to have blended drinks it can really enhance your experience. It’s easy to use with the pre-programmed modes and clean up is a breeze since the control panel is sealed and waterproof.

    A Blender with more

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    There is more than meets the eye with this blender. First of all, this blender has a larger than normal reservoir. It can hold 72 ounces, my previous blender holds significantly less than that. Another feature that this blender has that my older blender does not is the FreshVac. This feature acts as a food savor/oxygen remover while the load is being blended. At first i thought it was a bit of a stretch, which i must admit at face value it is, but never the less, it does improve the texture and flavor of whatever is being blended to perfection. All in all this is a good blender, some small tweaks could make it a top notch blender, but overall a very powerful and efficient blender.

    Vacuum pumps out excess air from blended foods

    Air wreaks havoc on almost everything. Oxygen to be precise. From air that gets in your brake fluid to wines to frozen food. The NINJA blender applies this vacuum technology to your blended drinks and foods. I instantly liked the touch screen controls. Easy to use and keep clean. Bright lit display is easy to read. The NINJA blender jar is a large 72-ounce capacity. Here is a video of me making peach puree for peach jam. https://youtu.be/k1GdCoshWhc The vacuum pump comes with six (6) AA batteries but can also be powered by an optional AC power adapter. Especially great idea once you start to see the benefit of the vacuum prepared drinks. Easy instructional stickers are included to guide you through the first time use of the vacuum items that make this a step above the standard Ninja Blenders. Well built bearings on the blender jars and strong motor plows through even the toughest items and ice.

    It blends!

    This is my second ninja blender and in my opinion, much better than previous generations. I used it once to make salsa but have primarily been using it to make smoothies for my roommate and I, all of which have turned out exceptionally. The two biggest selling points with this model is the vacuum pump and touch screen feature. The vacuum seal is great for storing foods air tight so that way they stay fresh longer. Want to make a smoothie in the morning that you can throw in the fridge for after you get back from the gym? Great! Want to make a soup on a Friday that you can heat up on Sunday? This is your machine. The smart touch display is real neat too. I hit the smoothie button, it runs for fifteen seconds, let’s the drink settle to the blades, runs again, repeats a couple times and bam! The perfect smoothie. I’ve been blown away by the consistency of the blend and how it’s neber too runny or chunky, no matter what variety of seeds, powders, or food I put inside. The container is plastic which some people stress about but I’ve had both plastic and glass work and break in the past. This seems sturdy and shouldn’t cause an issue. The only downside in my opinion is it’s louder than you’d expect. The multi blades are pretty hard to clean manually but everything is dishwasher safe so feel free to toss it in there and let it be cleaned automatically. Overall, this is a solid recommendation. Quick, easy, a good look, and a solid blend!

    This is a very well spent money. Excelent quality, full of accessories. One of the most important one of this bundle is the freshvac which actually helps the fruit look more fresh it’s a must have to spend a bit more and get a better value . Also this model comes with touch sensitive screen and is more powerful than the one that cost 99 , don’t think twice, just get this bundle or higher!!

    Ninja is evolving and offers newer tech in this segment. Its has Smart Vessel Recognition that recognizes the function on its touch screen once an attachments is snapped in, in addition to that its offers clear touch screen for better selection. beside to all of the foregoing features the FreshVac that pumps all the oxygen out and keeps drinks fresh! FresshVac can be operated by 6AA batteries OR power adapter "sold separately" great addition to my kitchen appliances

    Amazing blender. I’m big in working out and having smoothies. This is the best one I’ve owned. The consistency of smoothies from this ninja taste like I spent my money at a smoothie shop. I would recommend. It’s quite and sturdy. It’s also very easy to clean. I love the touch screen.

    Works Great, but very loud

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Overall, this is a great blender. The little travel cups are really nice to use and so far, the only thing I've used to make my morning fruit drink. This is primarily because they are small and don't take up much space in the dishwasher. The preset options and auto stop is a really nice feature because it allows me to leave the kitchen when it runs; and I have to leave the kitchen! It is extremely loud and I cannot use it if anyone in the house is sleeping. Fortunately, it has suction cups at the bottom of the motor base to fix it in place so I don't have to worry about it moving around when I run from the room.

    The latest in blending!

    I found out about the benefits of vacuum blending recently, and decided to purchase some type of vacuum blender. Many of the ones I found are extremely expensive, and I was discouraged, because I wanted the benefits of this type of blending: less oxidation of food, better texture, lasts longer if blended under vacuum, tastes better, etc. When I found this set by Ninja, I was very excited, purchased it, and absolutely love it! The base is plenty strong - 1400 watts! It has the large blender pitcher and the smaller personal size ones, which I use more often, The vacuum device is awesome, and pulls a nice vacuum on the cups or pitcher before you blend. You have to buy the power adapter for the vacuum pump device separately, but I ran it on batteries for a month without having to change them, so it isn't a deal breaker. Of course, you can use it as a standard blender, if you want, so you don't have to use the vacuum feature, but why wouldn't you? I am very impressed with Ninja products! I really love this unit, and definitely would recommend it as a very good deal, and a way to get into vacuum blending for a very reasonable price!

    I have been the type of person that doesn’t spend more than $30 on a blender and I wasn’t sure about the price but it hasn’t disappointed. It is great at blending thing up (On certain settings it sound like a airplane taking off), it is really great for smoothies. So far I haven’t found anything wrong with it, it is well worth the investment.

    This is a great step up from our magic bullet that we were previously using. Not only are the separate travel sizes great but the vacuum feature makes everything blend so nicely. Noise levels can be a bit high but worth it for the end product.

    This blender is incredible. You don't realize what you are missing with a conventional blender until you use this Ninja blender. Amazed how it chews through ice with no hesitation. Try that with your run of the mill blender. You cannot do it. The look and feel says quality. The unit has a powerful motor but the suction feet make sure it doesn't walk on your counter. The blending action eats through frozen fruit leaving no lumps of fruit. The preset settings is a great feature. The touch screen is clean and the buttons are responsive. No raised buttons. An easy to use push panel of buttons is a great design. The big 72oz unit is ideal if using for family gatherings or for larger needs. The fresh vac feature is incredible. It gives a better taste. It is a cool feature. The fresh vac pump is run by AA batteries. You can buy an adapter and avoid batteries. I opted for batteries and it works fine. Ninja supplies the batteries! The fresh vac feature clearly reduces foam up while also adding quality to the taste. The 20oz cup gets the most use because it is enough for both my wife and I to share. Comes with 2 20oz cups. The unit cleans up nicely both by hand washing and dishwasher. Ninja has made another nice product here. It is a tad loud, but that is not a complaint just an observation. I have no complaints. This is a must buy if you are in the market for these types of products. Ninja is quality. I trust this unit will be in our house for many years.
