Ninja Duo 2-in-1 Blender [BL642UK] with Auto iQ

I am so pleased with this purchase. It has exceed my expectation. From the day we got it, we have been using it almost every day. It comes with three extra cups that have proved to be very useful. It makes smoothies like no other we ever had. Super smooth, frothy when you want it, and delicious results. Have been experimenting with a lot of recipes. Regularly use frozen berries, bananas, coconut, etc. It handles them all well. The cleaning is super easy and fast. I personally do not tolerate things take a while to clean. It defies the point of using the product. This is a five star product when it comes to cleaning. Too easy. The menu options on the device are practical and useful. Nice blue lights. It is noisy as reported by others but we don't care. I would rather have a good smoothie and quick cleaning. This way we get to use it every day and every day it gives us joy, and healthy eating continues. Example: Make coffee, add a pit of coconut oil, milk and cinnamon, put in the bender and you get a state of the art coffee with beautiful frothy thickness that keeps you going all morning. Bliss. Thanks Ninja.

We used to have a simple, 1000 Watt Salter blender before which we have liked a lot, however if you feel you are ready to step up, try this Ninja. I have researched all types of Ninjas and I have found that this one gives you the best value, power and accessories. It is very straightforward to use, and you get a decently mixed shake under 20 seconds. Lovely setting options. You can pause and stop running pre-set programmes. It is also very stable. I have been worrying about the noise it will make, however it is far quieter than our previous Salter. Just for extra piece of mind I have also purchased a 3 yrs small kitchen appliance insurance here on amazon (just type it into search bar) for £15 pounds. We love it, such a difference compared to lower price tag blenders.

A very versatile machine which is in constant use, smoothies, milkshakes, soups and extremely powerful. Crushes ice to a snow, great iced coffees, saves on going to Starbucks / Costa etc and Snow drinks for the kids. Pretty easy to clean, maintain, an additional set of blades would have been handy and some mention the noise it makes but what do you expect from this type of blender compared to a handheld one, a slight buzz? especially if crushing ice. The cups are very useful for either storing in the fridge or taking the office/gym and have a convenient sipping point for drinking. It takes up a bit of room on the tabletop but if using it regularly it is just part of the everyday appliances. Far more versatile thand the average Bullet Blender. Overall would definatly recomment this Blender

This is a fab bit of kitchen kit. My previous blender wasn't very good at cracking hard seeds to make them digestible, and the pitcher wasn't really large enough for batch cooking. I wanted something with a generous pitcher and more blending power; finding one that also had smaller cups for making breakfast smoothies, nut butters, etc., was a real bonus. This model is so powerful that I only use the 'low/dough' setting for fruit smoothies – it does the job perfectly well without waking up my retired neighbours with the racket the higher speeds make! The blades in the large pitcher are brilliant for making batches of curry sauce, and chew up onions, garlic and spices very quickly. I also like the fact that you can add small quantities of ingredients through the lift-up flap in the lid, without having to take the whole thing off and drip sauce everywhere. Pros: pretty much all the advertised features. Cons: the cups could be significantly improved with a very simple design change. The insides are strengthened with plastic ribs; the outsides are smooth. The ribs make it hard to scrape the contents out of the cups (especially if they're quite viscous, e.g. fruit & nut smoothies), and at the same time the smooth exteriors make the cups difficult to grip and twist off the machine, especially if your hands aren't 100% dry. Just put the ribs on the outside instead, and solve both problems at a stroke! I'd still buy the product again as it is, though, it's a great system.

I absolutely love this Ninja 2-in-1 Blender! It’s quickly become one of my favorite kitchen appliances. The build quality feels premium, and it’s incredibly powerful – whether I’m blending smoothies, crushing ice, or making soups, it handles everything effortlessly. What really sets it apart is the 2-in-1 functionality. I can switch between the large jug for bigger batches and the personal cup for quick, on-the-go smoothies – super convenient! Cleanup is also a breeze, as the parts are dishwasher-safe and the design prevents spills and messes. It’s surprisingly quiet for a blender with this much power, and I’ve noticed it blends more smoothly and consistently than others I’ve tried in the past. Definitely worth every penny. If you're looking for a reliable and versatile blender, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

I've only used the Ninja twice, both times to make gazpacho soup, and it's worked a charm both times. I put the unpeeled tomatoes and peeled cucumbers, both with seeds, into the blender along with the read pepper, skin and all, and the rest of the ingredients and it came out smooth and delicious. You would never know that I hadn't de-seeded the tomatoes or cucumber, nor that I hadn't taken the skin off the tomatoes or pepper. Easy! I think it will be great for making soups in the autumn and winter. Fiddly to clean, but all blenders/food processors are; this one is probably easier to clean than others I've had. I have followed the directions very carefully regarding washing the blades and have not had a problem. At this time, I can say that I'm very glad I bought it and highly recommend it to others.

This machine is magic. Infact am trying to re buy again soon but can't find it It blends and grinds very well. So powerful Am going yo get another one SOON.

I adore this awesome blender and love every single detail in it. (Don't get me wrong but in my country is pretty difficult to find a 5 stars blender) I've been through quite a lot of blenders in my lifetime and all of them have either not done the job properly or have just cost far too much for what they are capable of. - High Quality product. - Well made, sturdy. - Engineered with numerous safety features, countless warnings ( Caution: sharp blades! ) and each of the blades were protected with custom-formed plastic sheaths, marked w/ ''Caution: handle with care! warnings''. - Easy assembly; directions were clear, simple to understand. - The pitcher, 3 Tritan cups and the base - all were bigger than I expected. And that is awesome. - Speaking of the base: Another safety design I love - underneath on the left and right sides, are pressure-release levers that release the suction cups that secure the base to your countertop. - Easy to clean, Easy to store and Easy to use. Highly Recommended!

Ninja never disappoints

Non ha la potenza promessa. Oltre tutto non appena lo stressi un po’ (es. Frullando frutta secca, cose congelate ma anche un semplice hummus) inizia a puzzare tantissimo di plastica bruciata. Ho chiesto il rimborso dopo qualche mese perché facendo un hummus mi si è fusa la plastica del contenitore nella parte dove girano le lame. Bocciato totalmente.

I like everything about this machine so far. It's made of quality materials, is solid/sturdy, easy to use and clean. The smaller cups are perfect for single servings or smaller jobs. The "Smoothie" button makes it so simple. As someone with arthritis I really love how easy it is to remove the lid from the big pitcher. A push of the button springs it open then it's loose and easy to pull out. And setting the lid back into the pitcher is easy as well. The pitcher is also easily removed without needing a lot of force. Great job all around.

Not pretty but quality and functionality is above an beyond. Impressed and would highly recommend.

PLEASE NOTE: The blender is not directly usable on our power sockets. The device is not suitable for Indian households as it runs on 120Volts. So Amazon/Vendor supplies a bulky step down transformer with your order. I did not like this as it was not mentioned on their product listing. Very bad Amazon. But tge blender is a beauty and heavy duty.
