NINJA BN750UK 1200W Blender, 1200 W, Black & Silver

excellent performance but motor failed after 5 months- at which point awarded 2 🌟- however outstanding customer service and replacement which is such a positive experience these days means I revise my score. Brilliant support!

I ordered this blender with some reservations because I really wanted one with a glass jar. But I also wanted the multi-level blades, and I was unable to find one that had both. This is a HUGE blender and will handle considerable quantities. I tested it out with things that I make every week: pesto, a flavoured mayonnaise and almond milk, as well as a curried parsnip soup and grinding walnuts.The pesto and mayonnaise are the things I really wanted the stacked blades for. With my previous blender I was constantly having to push everything down the sides of the jug to the blades: not so with this one! For the pesto I 'grate' the cheese and grind the pine nuts separately, then mix that in a bowl, then blend the garlic, basil and oil together before mixing with the cheese and nuts. I use Grana padano in block form, and use the blender to whizz it to a fine 'grated' consistency. I was a little concerned that the blender might make it too sticky, but it worked well to get it to a fine grain. For the basil mix, I found I needed to add more oil at first to get everything to the level of the lowest blades, but it worked well and with only one 'push down' needed to detach the basil leaves from the side of the jug. The mayonnaise I make is flavoured with sun-dried tomatoes, and I use the oil that the tomates are packed in. With my previous blender I found that as the oil is added and it got to more than about half a pint in volume, I had to very frequently push down into it it let air escape. With this Ninja, however, the stacked blades worked just as I hoped, and the mayonnaise churned properly even as the volume increased - again only one scrape-down needed. The nuts (almonds and walnuts) for nut milk ground down well without releasing too much oil, and for soups it has been excellent.Overall I'm very satisfied with it - I just wish they did a glass jug!

Great for making smoothies and juices.

This is a game changer for those who love cooking

The main problem is this is a US product and there doesnt seem to be replacement parts for the things that break - ie the lock lid. I had to buy this as the model I owned had a broken lock lid which has not been available in the UK for the last 2 years - even oem versions, the same with the complete jug. The lock lid is a cheap part £10 but never in stock.I have bought an oem lock lid for this newer model for £20 for when the lock lid eventually breaks - The lock lid is not built to last, unlike every other part of the device. So the device becomes useless for the sake of a very cheap part. A replacement jug costs £65; a replacement base unit costs £150. So if any part breaks it is cheaper to buy a new unit.I have looked at alternatives however it seems that this is the most suitable for my elderly mum who wont have the strangth to pull out a stuck lid of the best alternative blender

This is just what I need in my kitchen, very durable, easy to wash, light, and powerful.

In typical ninja fashion, this is good quality, simple to use and easy to clean. You get what you pay for. This is worth the investment.

Amazing! Such a great product! So happy with purchase!
