Ninja High-Speed Smoothie Maker & Nutrient Extractor, 34-oz. Pitcher, 2 To-Go Cups

Pros:
• Extremely powerful.
• The presets vary the blade speeds and move materials appropriately without the need to manually pulse, this works surprisingly well.
• The lid creates a vacuum and therefore doesn’t aerate liquids such as milk. Unexpected but pleasant discovery.
• The rotating lid does push materials down into the blade very effectively.

Cons:
• Unbelievably loud. I’ve often wondered If I was damaging my hearing by using it. Think old palm sander 18 inches from your ear.
• If you don’t fully utilize the liquid and solid fill limits, the unit is significantly louder. When it’s full with both solids and liquids, its much quieter.
• The unit vibrates even when secured and could potentially cause excessive wear to the rubber blade housing when it meshed with the motor. Therefore, I hold it still when using it which requires both hands. As a result, I put earplugs in.
• Sometimes the lid locking mechanism doesn’t seem to latch properly or feels a little loose or comes loose when I turn the top part of the unit to push materials down but I always have my hand on the lid for safety and catch it right away.
• Water from washing or other Liquids can get trapped inside the lid making it smell musty. There are internal areas you cannot clean or reach because they are inside the lid housing the rotational components.
• Manufacturer site claims BPA free
Tips:
• You’ll probably always be tempted to remove the lid while the pitcher is attached to the base for one reason or another when you are done making something. Don’t do that, it’ll always result in a mess. Wait for the cycle to finish or the motor to fully stop. Remove the pitcher first then open the lid over the sink because material will always slide off the prongs attached to the lid.

Despite these minor drawbacks, I’ve been using it twice a day since my purchase and haven’t had a single issue. Best kitchen purchase I’ve made in a long time.

My last blender is o l d – as in belonged to my parents – and I am at “grandmother age”! My husband wanted to get me the Ninja Nutri Bullet as a gift and I was lukewarm about ordering it…as I said I did not know that I needed this! After some thought though I began looking at various Ninja models and when I saw the Twisti I knew it was the right model for me. More versatile that the Nutri Bullet (imho) and it has a significantly higher wattage, plus it includes the cups that had drawn me to the Nutri Bullet originally.

I have only been using this beast for only a day, but I am thoroughly impressed! This machine is just so good!
I made fruit and yoghurt smoothies with extra protein today and they were ready in a flash! So good! The parts are all easy to remove and take apart and they are very easy to clean. The container and the cups are made of a quality plastic – like Lexan…sturdy and well made. I question the longevity of the blade assembly simply because it is plastic (old blenders had glass containers and the blades were set into metal), but since I see that replacement parts are available and not very costly I am not worried. I also don’t think that any parts will need replacement any time soon because this machine is very well made. It sits on the counter very securely with gripper suction cups that actually work exceedingly well.

Pros:
1. Fantastic motor and wattage
2. Not huge – does not take up much counter space
3. Works thoroughly and quickly
4. Has tamper legs that can be rotated as you blend (not available when you are using the cups – only with the large container
5. Well made!
6. Capable of doing things like making nut butters, crushing ice, and so much more
7. Replacements parts like cups, containers, blades, seal rings etc are readily available and not too costly

Possible Cons
1. Longevity for plastic parts with the blade assembly ?

I am very happy with this blender and think it is a little powerhouse!

Ease of cleaning
, very powerful

Excelente compra! Los dos vasos con diferentes tamaños son geniales y sumamente prácticos. Las aspas de la licuadora son fabulosas, algo ruidosa pero aún así vale mucho la pena

Investigue muchísimo en internet y descubrí que fuera de las vitamix y otras ninja más caras con vasos grandes, esta es la más poderosa del mercado. Vi unos videos y me convenció aunque estaba esperando a encontrarla económica y si me ahorre un buen dinero por esperar la oferta.
se siente de super calidad, ensambla perfecto, los sellos se sienten super bien y todo ha funcionado a la perfección.
El hielo lo muele bien e incluso si te pasas en un smoothie es tan fuerte que manda todo hacia arriba aunque no lo muela de un jalón.
Hice salsa, licuados, smoothies y si pulveriza a otro nivel, la textura es notable. Fuera de que se me rompan los vasos solo temo porque falle el motor o lo electrónico al maneja altos voltajes pero se ve super bien hecha y nunca le echaré cosas bien calientes. Quedé sumamente contento con mi compra y eso que he usado vitamix para hacer cientos de frappes en varios trabajos, esta es la mejor opción para una casa y vale totalmente la pena si la encuentras de oferta.

Es tan poderosa que extraño un poco la textura de algunas salsas verdes hechas con licuadoras desafiladas jaja, pero si de eso se tratara ya mejor me las hago a molcajete. Si no necesitas moler cantidades enormes constantemente yo te recomiendo este modelo, en especial si eres fan de los smoothies y las aguas de fruta como yo.

Procurare actualizar en el futuro mi reseña.
