Forgot I left it in the sink and I reached in to wash my hands, yup ended cutting my finger. Blades are for sure really sharp so be careful!! Oh, and don’t forget to wash it and set it away safely so no one “you” gets hurt lol

I have used this blender for over a month now. It is everything I hoped it would be. No wimpy motor here. This blender will crush and blend anything. The three sharp blades spaced out on the central shaft can make short work of food that other blenders lock up on or slow down.

I love to make smoothies, with this blender I can throw anything in and it comes out smooth.

If I had to give one criticism it would be the noise level. Yes, it's noisy, but it's worth it when it gives you so much power. It doesn't take but a few minutes to make great smoothies and sauces.

I waited to review this machine until I had put it to the test! I have to say, it is the BEST mixer I have ever owned. The blade is impressive! It does exactly what you want it to do. I have particular taste and texture preferences, and this machine delivers every time. Sometimes I like a fluffy, airy drink (Cafe frappe) and it comes out perfect. Other times I like the slushier version, like a fruit smoothie. The green juice I make daily also comes out perfectly blended. The 72 oz capacity is more than I need, but there are times when I have guests and if I want to make a special desert sorbet, I can do a large quantity and then put it in the freezer. Same with cream soup, I made a butternut squash batch and it was silky smooth. I have to say, Ninja has become my go to brand for so many kitchen appliances. Quality is excellent and functionality exceeds expectations. I am happy to give 5+++ stars.
