NinjaBlast Max, Portable & Personal Blender + Twist & Go, Smoothie, Blend, Ice Crush, 3 Programs, Cordless, 22 oz removable Vessel, Dishwasher Safe, Leakproof, Grey, BC251GY

excellent blender. It has great features for getting the exact desired blend of a drink. Easy to operate and holds more liquid than a blend jet, but still sturdy and light weight. This product is better than the blend jet.

Ninja has a reputation for producing great products for the home. Thus, I was looking forward to getting and using this blender.I love a smoothie. I have tried other blenders especially since for health purposes my provider has recommended 1-2 smoothies a day.First, it needs to be charged. The charger is packed inside the blender itself. Plug it in to charge before use. It does take a long time. Don't plan to use that day.The instructions are easy to read and follow. There is a little recipe booklet included along with a guide for what to add and the order to add the items. There is a good explanation about errors that can occur with the blender and how to correct them.The container itself has the markings for what you add - 6 ounces minimum of liquid. It has a max fill line.It comes with good instructions and a great guide for making your smoothies: liquid, fresh fruits, leafy greens, sticky stuff, and frozen fruits/ice. You are cautioned if you add more frozen fruits you may need to add more fluid.I added an 8 ounce protein supplement shake, a banana and a cup of frozen strawberries.It was so easy to use. Power on. When the white lights were on, pressed the smoothie button and let it do its thing. It will power on and off for a minute or more. Remove the vessel from the motor, push the button on the lid and drink. The texture was just right.You have the option of taking just the vessel or taking both the vessel and motor (for remixing later).I only have 1 complaint and it isn't worth subtracting a 1 star. It is an irritation though. It should have a standard USB-C charger instead of the one it has that is a dedicated charger.I do recommend the mixer because of the power, versatility, and ease of use. Great for smoothies, milkshakes and more. We made daiquiris and they turned out perfect.

This is the best small appliance ever! I don't know what I did for making protein shakes and fruit smoothies (except make a terrible mess!) before I got this Ninja blender. Now I'm getting the protein I need with almost no effort. This thing is powerful, crushing ice cubes and frozen fruit at the touch of a button. The canister holds 22 oz. Easy to set up, easy to clean, easy to carry everywhere you go. Just get it!

Worth the Upgrade CostI had the Ninja Blast and it worked well until it stopped working. It was insured and so a refund from Asurion was easily handled and worth the cost.Because I like to make smoothies with ice, I upgraded the Ninja to the Max and it was well woth it. It has three levels, it starts right up, it's easy to put on and take the vessel off base with a click. It holds a charge longer, and the charging cord and plug are both included. Bottom line: it also makes great frosty drinks. A definite happy buy.

Only 4 stars because the design of silicone strap on the lid gets in the way. Maybe great if you’re swinging it around but I use mine in the kitchen. Most of the time I’m adding something and want to quickly place it on and take off to prevent splashing. That said, I LOVE, LOVE IT!The quality is impressive, has plenty of power for a quick, even, smooth blended texture. Ice uniformly crushed in a smoothie, no uneven chunks. I love that I can add ingredients from the top which makes it versatile and convenient when making sauces, dressings and tweaking recipes. Like a regular blender, but a third the size and weight.The one feature for me, that would make this perfect, is a button for a single low speed pulse. Then I wouldn’t need anything else!Well, in a perfect world there would be a lid with a removable strap. :)Enjoy!

Should’ve bought this a while ago! Great for mixing up smoothies in the morning or protein shakes. Mixes very well, super easy to clean, the size is great. Do wish they’d make of these in a larger size! Battery life seems to be really good! Now the noise level, it’s extremely loud! It is a blender after all. Quality of the bottle is good, seems to be thick and not flimsy either!

This works well, as advertised. I got it for a gift for our young adult daughter and she loved it. Her kitchen theme is all pink.Very cute, looks nice in her kitchen. It’s easy to clean, and chops up the ice well. Smoothies are quick, and no problem.
