Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overview: The Ninja Power Blend Pro is a really solid appliance. Build: The build quality is very nice. Looks great, chops, dices, blends, smoothies, shakes, bowls, protein drinks, no issue with this device. Little suction cups on the bottom of the appliance keeps it from sliding all over the place. Style: The styling of the blender looks top notch. Fits on my counter without taking up too much space and isn’t too tall. Stainless with black looks amazing and goes with the rest of my appliances in my kitchen. Chopping, cutting, blending: I used this to make my fish food. Placed Shrimp, Scallops, Calamari, Pollock, and flake food in the blender. I added some water and turned this on. It comes on and goes off, then on and then off to make sure the ingredients comes back down to the base so it can continue to chop and cut the ingredients into a puree. I also used it to make a protein shake for two with the same results. Did a great job of making the ingredients consistent and smooth. It also took very little time to make these things. Easy pour spout to keep from making a big mess, easy to take a part and clean. Highly recommend this appliance to anyone who is in the market for a great blender.

It seems like AI and automatic systems are the new wave in everything these days. The Shark Detect Power Blender Pro is a blender - mixer - dicer that automatically adjusts the blade speed to generate the desired consistency. The dial has a glossy black front that, when turned on, then shows a digital display. You rotate the actual dial to select your target, then the blender senses and takes care of the rest. We noticed no banging or rocking of the blender base during use. Speaking of the blender, the blades are removable which allows for easy and thorough cleaning of both the blades as well as the pitcher. The blender lid has a spout cover with a wire in the middle which prevents big chunks of ice or fruit or whatever you’re blending from plopping out. It’s a really simple yet elegant way to prevent an annoyance. When you set the blender and turn to lock, it clicks in place so you know for sure it’s secured. The blender lid similarly clicks into place with an audible and tactile cue. No issues with a slightly off blender or lid leading to a smoothie getting whipped all over the kitchen. Everything just works, which was quite nice. Highly recommend

I'm not a frequent blender user. That said, when the opportunity arose to test out the Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro with BlendSense Technology, I checked my cabinet. I do have a random blender from goodness knows where, that was missing part of the lid and hasn't ben used in some time. Upon arrival, I immediately took it out, read the directions & then searched for some recipes! Immediate impression- it's an attractive appliance that I can leave out or break down easily for storage. LOVE the locking lid!! In my blending past, I have fallen victim more than once to the sitcom-like scenario where the lid pops off and your blended items fly all over! I made some homemade hummus and a smoothie for my dinner a few nights ago. The BlendSense Technology definitely picked different times and speeds for the two different recipes and made quick work of both the all-soft hummus ingredients and the partially frozen smoothie ingredients. If you're looking for a smart, modern take on a staple kitchen counter appliance, you're not going to go wrong with the Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro with BlendSense Technology.

One look at the Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro with BlendSense Technology and you know it means business. First of all, it’s a large heavy-duty blender as its footprint measures roughly 8 x 8 inches and it stands 17 inches tall. The blender settings are all handled by a horizontal panel of touch buttons which include power off/on, manual (variable speed), blend-sense, mode (mince and chop), and pulse. The large circular knob acts as a submenu selector of manual and mode options and in some cases used to start and stop the blending. The pitcher is made of clear plastic with a locking lid and pour spout. The base features suction cup feet to prevent the blender from vibrating off the countertop. The suction cups make moving the blender a bit of a challenge, but you will quickly appreciate having them when you run the blender with a full pitcher. The removeable blade system is one of the more unique standout features, comprised of a series of three vertically stacked blades. The three blades are no doubt the reason why this blender excels at making exceptional smoothie drinks. The other standout feature is the auto-sense blending technology, which somehow figures out what you are blending and then intelligently operates the blender to get the best results. Based on my personal experience using this blender, the BlendSense technology seems to make the best creamy smoothies of any blender I have ever used. In fact, the accompanying brochure clearly states it’s “the blender that automatically adjusts speed and time for perfectly smooth results”. My wife and I tried making a slushy ice drink with coffee liquor, ice, and milk using the BlendSense setting and it turned it into a creamy smooth drink. If you prefer a drink with more ice though, then possibly using the pulse setting might be a better setting choice. With the chop settings, using the blender as a food processor only adds to its repertoire as a well-rounded kitchen appliance. I have learned from experience to trust Ninja to make some of the best small appliances around…including air fryers and grills, pots and pans, and coffee makers, all of which I currently own and use. The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro continues that tradition of quality and function at affordable prices. It is the perfect addition to making healthy nutritious recipes at home.

Ninja's Detect Power Blender Pro is a powerful blender with some intelligent features. Operation is intuitive and the motor can drive the blender through any task. And aside from being useful for standard blending tasks like making frozen drinks or smoothies, this blender has modes that can help with food prepping tasks like chopping vegetables or processing meat for burgers. It comes with a short, but useful, manual that provides simple recipes designed to help you understand the different modes. The large plastic pitcher locks securely onto the base and the lid locks securely onto the pitcher - both of these are safety measures that must be in place for the blender to operate. Overall, the secure engagement of the pitcher and the base make this blender feel like a professional bartender's blender. My own preference is for a blender to have a removable "cap" in the lid that allows you to introduce additional ingredients while the blender is running but I understand that these caps can be dangerous in some situations where you are blending hot ingredients. For manual blending, like emulsifying a salad dressing, the Ninja behaves like almost any other blender (except it really doesn't have a speed that is "slow"). In chopping mode, I was surprised how quickly and evenly it was able to process onions into large or small dice from a quartered onion - and the built-in intelligence sensed when to stop processing. And in the BlendSense mode it took frozen drinks to the next level - it was able to process the ice to the point where drinks were smooth as silk (not drinky/crunchy). Many blenders that feature special modes of operation seem gimmicky and the features feel unnecessary, but I think this Ninja has delivered a few very intelligent features that work as advertised and that users will appreciate and actually use. Awesome machine!

The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro does exactly what I am intending it to do. It pulverizes ice cubes into a nice, crushed slush perfect for a margarita or any other beverage you have in mind. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it has a pulse option and I’m thinking of another appliance that will no longer be needed on the countertop thanks to the Ninja Detect Power Blender. The blender has a Blendsense option, and it pulverized those ice cubes perfectly. There is a Mode option that has mince, small chop, and large chop options. The Manual option lets you set a speed to blend at 1 through 10. I got up to 4 and got the same results with the ice cubes. I think the Blendsense option pulverized them a bit faster, but I confess, I didn’t actually time the two tests. Smoothies are easy peasy with the Ninja blender. The mixing container has liquid measuring scale. Fantastic! It is in both litre/Millitre as well as ounces/cups. Tooke me a minute to figure out you need to press the “release” button on the lid to put the lid on the container. The release button allows the handle to go up, which then allows the lid to fit on the container and you push the handle down, so it locks in place. The unit consists of three pieces, the base with the motor, the container, and the lid. The blade on the inside easily comes out for cleaning. Don’t turn the container upside down as the blade will fall out. The extension cord has an attached Velcro strap to wrap up the power cord. Great blender definitely earned a spot on the countertop.

I am a huge fan of all of the Shark/Ninja products I started out years ago with the original Ninja blender, and it has grown to vacuums, carpet cleaners and robot vacuums The price point on their products get your attention, but the attractive designs, innovative features and lasting dependability keeps you coming back to the brand As mentioned that I already have a Ninja blender, but when we became a grandparent, we needed something a little different to make our own baby food. I also wanted something completely dedicated to the little one to avoid any cross contamination Un boxing is typical - it is shipped as a box in a box, with sufficient dunnage to protect in transit The owners manual is outstanding. Explains the features and how and when to use them. Want to blend fine? Let the blender take out the guesswork for you Chop? Select how fine or course you want it, and let the blender do the rest Didn't get enough blending? Use the manual mode or pulse to reach your desired consistency Like all Ninja blenders, the blades are sharp, so be careful handling and washing Lastly, I have not found anything that the motor can not power through

This blender is fantastic! I made homemade hummus with it and it did an awesome job. Perfectly blends every time. Easy to clean. Very satisfied with this product

A Great Blender. The BlendSense setting makes making smoothies much easier...just put in all the ingredients at once, and it automatically pulses (slows and speeds up) to let the mixture settle - no more stopping the blender, take the lid off, push the contents down, restart the blending. The multiple blades at different heights - instead of just one blade at the bottom really makes sense. Sticky feet makes the unit safe to use.

We have a bar in the basement and I have been slowly equipping it with proper "bar appliances". One of the appliances that was missing was a decent blender. When I had the opportunity to get this Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro with BlendSense Technology, I jumped on it. Inital thoughts are it is classical Ninja consumer quality. I have had several NInja devices from kitchen appliances to vacuums and I have yet to be disapointed. The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro continues that trend. It is a handsome device with a quality look and feel. Operation is as expected, intuitive and simple. I mean it's a blender. For our first use, we had a few friends over to watch the Avalanche season opener. For the first round of drinks, we did the classic margarita. The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro hadled it no problem and offered a very nice, even blend from first pour to last. We then did a series of daiquiri's and topped it off with a pina collada. Will all rounds, the outcome was the same. Even, smooth drinks delivered with plenty of power. End of the day, I am glad I took the opportunity. This is a great addition to back of the basement bar!

This is a large blender & comes with suction cups on the bottom to hold it in place. Multipurpose lid has a pour spout and locks into place. Everything on the new unit is self explanatory. I inserted all the ingredients for the vegetable smoothie. The smoothie is smoother and came together faster. The unit is also significantly quieter. I used the Blend Sense setting. More of the smoothie was on the cover but it was easily removed with a spatula. This would be great for making frozen drinks with the 72 oz pitcher for when you have guests. It also can be used to make nut butters. This blender has smart technology that can automatically adjust speed and time for perfectly smoothie results. The Ninja Total Crushing & Chopping give you perfectly crushed ice for your smoothies and frozen drinks. For chopped vegetables it has Large chop, Small Chop and Mince. For holiday parties, this would be great. Mine did not come with the 2 24-OZ. SINGLE-SERVE CUP and I plan to add those since it would be easier for clean-up. Containers, lids, and blades are all top-rack dishwasher safe BUT the Manual cautions you not to use with heat dry cycle so this would be a problem for me. I have a huge kitchen with lots of counter space, however this blender is so big, I am not sure we’re to locate this since leaving it out competes with items that are used every day. I think this is best designed for families that make several smoothies in the morning.

I love my blender my smoothies come out delicious ans my acai bowls its ninja is one of my favorites brand's

Great features for the investment. Easy to use and powerful.

I'd been eyeing a Ninja blender for a while, I've recently gotten into cooking a lot more at home, trying new recipes and things. Almost everything I make requires me to chop up or puree vegetables. Also, store-bought sauces and salsas have gotten more expensive and I like the thought of making my own! First, it's a beautiful little machine. Very well made and sturdy. The multi-blade is SHARP, has no problem chopping down even large cubes of ice which I tend to buy. I made margaritas and the texture was fantastic. I wasn't quite so thrilled with the detect function, though? Seems to either over or under chop when it's supposed to sense the perfect amount of time to to run based on the fill level. This has happened twice when chopping veggies to go into a soup and a pot of mustard greens. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I still seem to have to blend a bit more or work with a little runnier of a puree than I like. I haven't attempted to make a smoothie yet, but I plan to play around with it some more over the weekend. I think it's lovely and sells at a good price point for everything it's made to do, but I may still be a bit too much of an amateur to fully appreciate all the features right off the bat. I'm going to keep at it, love the idea of making almond butter with it! Will come back and update my review after I've had more time with it.

Amazingly better than my old one. Blades r positioned up and down so very effective blending.

Excellent product! I would recommend it for crushing ice and making smoothies effortlessly. I would buy this item again.

excellent. I just lack the small cups for smoothies

Great product.works well. Efficient. No issues yet
