I bought this as a TSV back in July , and I haven't had occasion to use it much. I needed to grate some parm for a recipe this AM. and I didn't want to haul out my way too heavy food processor. I figured I'd try the Ninja, it's lighter and on my counter. Well, folks, it zipped right through that hard cheese, and I'm a happy cook.

I use mine daily to make a smoothie from frozen solid vegetables.  With a dash of liquid, it powers right through even big frozen pieces of cauliflower and broccoli.  I had (had) 2 blenders with 2x the watts that ended up smoking, while trying to do the same.  I had to rush them out of the house to a more non-flammable location to cool down.

 

Plus, I love the color (turquoise) for my counter top.  Great buy at $32.98.  Plus S&H and tax, but for right in at $40 it's well worth it.

I love mine and have not regretted donating my Vitamix once.

we have a ninja we both years ago that came with 3 size bowls. we allso have a kitchen aid food processer that we use for certain thing but ninja gets used way more. i put iced coffee milk and ice in ninja every afternoon. aria had to crush oreo cookies to go on a halloween cake today. like 5 seconds ninja had them crushed. it would have taken way longer than that to take out ka processer.

@QVCkitty1, I love mine. I do so much with it. I wish it had a handle on the heavy motor part. I am always afraid I might drop it due to RA. It would make it perfect for me.

tiny 2 its not good to drop them but we have had our ninja for years and i have dropped it many times. i was grinding poek in it once and it took a little while so ninja stopped working . i thought it burned out but once it cooled down it worked fine.
