Customer Ratings & Reviews

This will be my second Ninja blender, replacing one from a few years ago. The last one had some features that I didn't particularly care for nor use, and I will say that the absence of those things here makes this a winner in my book. The good: It's easy to use. No real gimmicks here for a blender (more on that later). It blends everything you can throw at it that's edible. Ice? No problem. Berries for a smoothy? Easy. The smoothy/drink containers are 99% perfect. Easy to drink from without the lid, and even better with it. Some cups have the threads on the outside, which makes using the cup as a cup a bit annoying. Like you went to the dentist and got novocaine for a cavity and dribble everywhere. Not the case here, the threads are inside the lip, small details matter. The full sized blender is great, makes quick work of whatever you toss in there. The locking lid is a nice touch, makes it impossible to spill anything since it is a two step process to remove it. Everything is dishwasher safe, a huge plus in my book. While it says top rack only, I place the cups on the bottom since they will not fit on the top rack for me. If you have a heated drying cycle that gets very hot, you run the risk of melting things since the heating element is typically on the bottom of the machine. It works for me, but you're on your own there can't guarantee you'll have the same experience. To add to that, I love how the cups and containers don't have tiny nooks and crannies that require small bottle brushes or pipe cleaners to get clean. My last Ninja had a completely useless vacuum "freshness" feature. All it did was add complexity and made cleaning up a royal pain in the you know what. The base is very small and light. They packed a lot of power into it, and I do love that about it. Only hitting one button to start it is really nice, no longer need to select a program, and then hit start. Sure it only saves one step, but simple is better. The not so good: The base of the smoothy cups isn't perfectly flat, so they wobble ever so slightly. It isn't enough to tip over, but also...it's a bit expensive of a blender for that type of oversight in my opinion. Not a deal breaker though just a "really?" type situation. I'm not sure it has much use as a chopper for vegetables. The box shows perfectly chopped onions....yeah that's not going to happen ever, sorry to say. It'll get you close but no where near that perfect. Not a deal breaker since I wouldn't ever use this that way but just a heads up for anyone thinking to use it in that capacity. The smoothy blades do actually require a pipe cleaner to get underneath the very bottom blades....so not perfect but still really good. I'm not sure why companies insist on making things inconvenient but here we are. Not the end of the world but just a heads up, those bottom blades are really tiny and a kitchen sponge won't fit in there. It's loud, but most blenders are so maybe this deserves its own "eh whatever?" section. The questionable: Honestly the whole "blend sense" thing is a bit interesting in my opinion. I use this almost entirely for smoothies in the small containers. A mixture of powders and milk, plus two ice cubes. Blend sense selects "maximum crush." Ok I guess, but it takes 10-15 seconds to figure out which program to use, at which point the drink is pretty much ready. The program then runs for another 35 seconds. The drinks come out just fine though. I made a knock off of a famous coffee shop's morning breakfast egg bites. So, eggs and cottage cheese. It selected the same "maximum crush" setting. For eggs..... They came out fine, but again...."maximum crush" for eggs. Yeah. Like I said, questionable. Does it blend? Yep sure does. Does it do it in a weird way? Also, yep, sure does. It's a good blender, and Ninja has a great track record, and everything I've read says they stand behind their products. I've never had a Ninja appliance die on me, and I own a few, but it's nice to know they're there to help if I needed it.

The Ninja Detect Duo Power Blender Pro + Single Serve is A M A Z I N G. I used this for smoothies for the first week to start and it was perfect every time. With my other machine which I think was getting pretty burnt out, I would have to stop it and move stuff around to get things to blend completely. Not with the Ninja Detect, it's smart. I also this time of year have a garden and process so many things from the garden. I gave this thing a run for it's money. It chops like nobody's business, saved me so much time. It's got an auto sense, so amazing. I chopped tomatoes, onions, red, yellow and green peppers, jalapeno peppers (don't breath in when you pull the cover off, it will throw you into a coughing fit, lesson learned) I chopped everything I had in the garden. I made Spaghetti Sauce, Salsa Verde, Salsa, and it all was great. I found everything about this to be wonderful. I couldn't find any flaws at all. This is a powerful and amazing machine and I highly recommend this. I plan to use this daily. I have a smoothie every morning and I love how much room it gives you in the cup. If you have ever used Ninja products this is a one up from anything else I have ever owned from them. I have no doubt that this is going to be a good seller for them. I am so glad that I have this, it's going to be well used by this family. I am debating if I will keep this out on the counter top. Normally I put it away all the time, but I use it so often it might be better off where I can see it. Much love for this machine. It's a keeper for me.

This blender is big, powerful, and thanks to the individual cups the kit comes with also convenient. My brain didn't correctly process how massive a 72oz main pitcher was going to be, so make sure you have somewhere to store this beast when not in use. Extremely powerful able to hit 1700w peak power which is about as much as a standard 15amp circuit can support. No issues with it tripping breakers yet, and handles anything I've thrown in it with ease. Features suction cups on the front feet to make sure it doesn't jump off your counter. The motor is a bit loud so if you have other people in your home starting the day out with a smoothie will act as a very effective alarm clock. The "blend sense" tech seems to work well, letting you know when the mixture may be too thick or otherwise doing a good job of making sure the ingredients are well mixed. The two included single serving cups include lids so you can take your drink on the go without transferring it to another vessel. I've done smoothies, milkshakes, salsa, and frozen adult beverages with it so far and have gotten rave reviews for my blending prowess which mainly comes down to hitting the start button thanks to the blenders capabilities. Easy to clean as everything is dishwasher compatible. If you are needing a new blender with a massive pitcher but the ability to make more convenient individual serving sizes I would definitely recommend you check this kit out.

What an upgrade! I was getting by for many years with and old magic bullet. It didn't it's job but every time I used it, I would think "I really need to get a real blender". Enter the Ninja Detect Duo and just wow! The power and speed this thing has, just blew me away. I love the travel size convertible cups, that's what I was used to, but these are bigger and just the right size. The big blender pitcher is great for making bigger recipes and batches of drinks. I love how it's not glass but heavy acrylic, so much easier to work with. The safety features of this system are far more advanced than I've ever seen. The ninja won't run unless the pitcher is locked in. The lid latches on and locks down, so no more blender explosions. Although the lid does totally lock in place, I still find myself in blender pose, out of habit I guess. This Ninja has different settings but with it's power, I use the pulse button mostly or the blend sense. Just a couple seconds and most things I make are done. Making frozen drinks and shakes is a breeze. Effortless, almost like nothing is in the blender. Ice is crushed almost instantly! No more blender jiggle is wonderful! You know, when you jiggle and bounce the blender to get the ingredients back down. Just seconds to perfectly blended drinks!

I'm a fan of Ninja as I believe they have great products. The Ninja Detect Duo Power Blender Pro + Single Serve serves to confirm that belief. The reason I wanted this particular blender was because it was both a normal size blender as well as being able to make a single serving without having to use the bigger container. Saves counter space when I can have only one blender instead of two. However, I got so much more. I puree a lot of veggies and fruits which I then freeze to later throw into soups, sauces and smoothies. One problem I encounter is knowing how much liquid to add to the veggies. This blender will tell you if you need more liquid and I found it so much easier to add more than worry about having started with too much. Broccoli, cauliflower and carrots were easily pureed. I also puree for grandkids and that is where the BlendSense feature impressed me. I put some beef stew into the blender, set it to BlendSense and it was perfectly pureed. No worries about little chunks that might cause issues for little throats to swallow. It also worked great making smoothies as I tend to just throw things in without measuring so the liquid indication is great there as well. There is a manual feature so if you'd prefer, you can choose your own timing, particularly if you want to chop things. It comes with a nice recipe booklet which also shows how best to layer your foods into the blender and how best to use it. My only negative is that the blender tends to be loud. However, with the power the blender has, it doesn't take long to do what is needed. Still, something to consider.

The Ninja Detect Duo Power Blender Pro + Single Serve is a brilliant device from one of my favorite brands! We have come to respect and enjoy the Ninja branded products. They truly "build 'em like they used to"! The product packaging is sturdy and organized in a logical way that almost allows assembly without even referring to the manual. There is both a large carafe and two rugged single serving glasses so that you always have the option of blending for yourself or for a crowd! The product is solidly built with minimal controls that are very intuitive. Thoughtful features like front mounted suction cup feet assure that the blender will stay put while operating. A good feature given how powerful the motor is on this thing! Ninja even throws in a recipe booklet to get your creative juices flowing! (see what I did there?) But, the true magic in this device is intelligent tech that allows the blender to determine important info about the ingredients themselves! No more having to press multiple buttons to tell the blender that some of your contents are frozen or extra thick! You just layer your ingredients and press a single button! The blender will determine the optimum processing and time for you automatically! We have been primarily using it for smoothies, malts and milkshakes but it is fully capable of chopping vegetables, blending soups or making fresh salsa. I highly recommend this product!

First off, very well packaged and secure, which was a relief given the glassware inside. Instructions were clear and after a quick initial cleanup the set up was easy. Shaved or crushed ice is always a bit of a gamble especially when making a large batch for slushies or for summer drinks. This blender worked great and the auto-iQ seemed to help with consistency. Certainly better than just going by eye or 'feel' did. I hadn't thought I'd ever have a single system that worked equally well at both ends - chopping and 'juicing', but this turned fruit into super smooth juice and basically you can make anything from a iced drink to a straight up fruit juice in a matter of a few adjustments. It wasn't like an over processed juice either, it looked and tasted 'real'. We also used it to make a few blender recipes for protein shakes that we hadn't ever gotten to come out right before and this time around, this Ninja made them just as good as a juice bar could have. The bonus of having two cups with spout lids was also nice - never enough of those clean. It also seems quieter than others we have used, but that may just be us. We are very pleased with the unit and expect to get a ton of use out of it.

I use a blender in my house almost everyday day whether it be making smoothies, or a sauce or even occasionally making cookie dough the life my old blender lived was a rough one. So as I was looking for a new one I wanted something that could do everything I needed but also use different size containers. When I make myself a smoothie I do not need the hug container so the fact this blender has the smaller one person containers for drink is great, those size containers also work well for making sauces when I’m cooking, and the fact they are so easy to clean makes it much better to use. The new sense blend works decently well, I tend to just switch over to manual mode but I never had any problems with it. The blender is relatively light and the suction cups on the feet help keep it in place and not let move around. Overall this is a great blender that can blend anything I throw at it. If your in the market for one I highly recommend getting yourself this ninja blender. You can plenty of containers to let you make what you need without having to keep cleaning it each time.

My house's kitchen is not large, but we have a lot of appliances on the counter. Two of them being a blender and a Ninja personal serve blender. The ninja detect duo replaces both appliances into one. The blender works great and it even has a feature that will tell you to add more liquid to whatever you are making if necessary. As far as the design goes, it has a stainless steel design, making it look premium and blend in with my other modern appliances. The buttons are large, and not over complicated. The single serve cup is big enough for two personal servings. It also has a strap that allows you to wrap up the cord when you are not using it and keeps it out of the way. As far as cleaning goes, it is easy to take apart and all parts are dishwasher safe except for the blade. The blade must be washed by hand. This is a fairly large blender, and it barely fits under my cabinets. If you are someone who likes to make different things in a blender, then this one will do it all. There are other attachments available for purchase, such as a food processor attachment.

I’ve had several Shark vacuums over the years. Being that I was in an older house, with carpet and a poodle like dog, having a powerful high quality vacuum was a must. I moved into a new home, and figured that was the best time to start fresh, so enter the Shark Cordless Detect Pro Auto-Empty System. The entire house is treated, hardwood flooring, and I was a little concerned. Sharks auto sense technology was one of the best features. It can sense when you’re on a different flooring and adjust the power for maximum efficiency, and will automatically increase the suction of it senses for those tough messes. On my new flooring it’s mostly a lower suction, but when I hit corners of more dirt you can hear the difference, and only one swipe od the vacuum is needed. It’s very sleek, and easy to setup. It isn’t something you want to just stick on a closest, and actually can go with any decor. I have it in my hallway upstairs, and it’s not an eyesore. Shark really stepped their game up to not only have a cordless vacuum with technology ahead of the game, but to be able to empty the bin automatically is a game changer. No more getting your hands dirty trying to open the bin, and it isn’t terribly loud while it empties itself. No more looking for the cord to charge it, it charges itself on the base. I couldn’t be happier with this vacuum, and will always be a big Shark supporter.

This Ninja Detect Duo Power Blender Pro + Single is by far the best blender I have ever used. With it's Detect Technology including it crushing & chopping blade assembly, you simply toss in ingredients and it sensed, crushes and chops. IT 72-ounce pitcher has ample space for making a family smoothy or a round of frozen margarita’s, I especially appreciate the pour spout that is built in to the locking lid. Its simple operation interface is well designed and easy to clean. This particular combo includes two 24-ounce single serve cups with spout lids, and a hybrid edge blade assembly for you singe serve pre or post work out smoothies. While using this blender it will actually stop and notify you that more liquid is necessary to complete a perfect finished product. I also feel that having all of these parts and pieces be dishwasher safe is so helpful. This product actually is on the quieter side of blenders, not sure how they pulled that off, but there is marked difference. I would suggest this product by Ninja for family and friends.
