im using a cheap black and decker and it struggles to go through ice and frozen strawberry's and bananna...

I've been considering one of the Ninja blenders but would like to hear what others have been happy with.

First reply EOT

I've had a vitamix for over 30 years. The plastic parts –– dome and feed tube –– have been replaced but other than that it is good as day 1. It will turn peanuts into peanut butter, grain into flour and then into bread dough and makes the best daqueri EVER!!

I looked at vitamix and blendtec, I bought a ninja for a quarter of the price and after ~2 years it has yet to let me down.

Im not one to buy cheap stuff of of infomercials but I have one of these and it has gone strong for two years now. Best part is, I dont care about burning it up because it was super cheap, and its great for a single serving protein shake. Very little cleanup.

Tough enough to make almond butter with, the things just never stop working.

thanks guys i ended up with this one link

my sister gave me a 20% of coupon and i got it discounted.

so far this thing is great for chopping up ice (i did that to clean it with a little dish washing liquid)

I picked a 0.9 HP Kitchenaid last year.

Here

I live in an apartment, I am sure my neighbors hate me when I turn it on.

they had that one as well. i spent 30 bucks extra (then saved 26 with the coupon) and got the 3 containers total instead of just the 72ozer

I like the blendtec "will it blend" better than vitamix
