“The value full-size. Ice and smoothies at about $120. Not a Vitamix — and it does not need to be if frozen drinks are the job.”

Precision Engineering
1,400 Peak Watts
Ninja's step up from the BL610. Enough stacked-blade power to snow a pitcher of ice.
72-Ounce Total Crushing Pitcher
64-oz max liquid. Family batches, not a 32-oz personal cup.
3 Auto-iQ Programs
Smoothie, frozen drink, ice cream. Timed pulse/blend/pause so you are not babysitting the pitcher.
