No danger to our fingers. :) Clearly Caroline knows her stuff. :) Lots of good Vitamix info...I've never owned one...considering one...

    Do you know what's crazy? I skipped the Nutribullet ad prior to this video. I have the 900 Series already and..... it's good enough for what it is, but STILL can't beat the Vitamix. I ordered the O.G. 5200 (my third one) and I can hardly wait for it to arrive.

      rho lees vitamix is a whole level above nutri ninja.

    • @rhondalees4
      @rhondalees4 7 років тому

      johnulcer Cost - wise for sure the vitamix is levels above the ninja. If you do a cost-benefit ratio analysis of functionality vs. the cost then I think $60-$100 vs. $400+ for a Vitamix, has the Ninja ahead of the game. Anyone would be quite satisfied with the same outcome for less with less counter space taken up. I can travel (on a plane) with my ninja and have. Can't do that with a vitamix, hence usefulness has its limits unless you are a homebody with a big kitchen and cost not a consideration, then the vitamix gives you the levels above bragging rights. Just made a smooth black bean brownie batter mix with my ninja tonite. No lumps.

    • @johnulcer
      @johnulcer 7 років тому +4

      i've used a ninja. i own a nutribullet. the vitamix is in another league altogether - and there are countless consumer reports reviews and actual comparison tests that prove it. there's a reason the vitamix is more expensive and it's not just because it's bigger. the nutri ninja and the nutribullet can not handle common fibrous ingredients such as kale nearly as effectively as the vitamix.

    • @rhondalees4
      @rhondalees4 7 років тому

      johnulcer I think I must have gotten a Nutri Ninja that thinks it's a vitamix cause kale, including stalks are masticated pretty well. It's a dream machine that meets all my criteria, so I've been very happy to recommend it to anyone who would really like to get into smoothies and other creamed or blended preparations without sticker-shock. Sorry I'm not seeing a money's-worth justifiable difference. Just glad it's a great way to make some nutritious meals and small enough to travel with.

    • @opticon
      @opticon 7 років тому +4

      I had a nutri ninja auto iq and I have​ to say the vitamix is in a different league but get the product that's right for you. the thing about the vitamix is that it just does so much more. it's more multipurpose. the 10 year warranty rocks too. it doesn't have the power of the vitamix to crush kale and spinach although it crushes ice well. I used mine for a year and plastic pieces were breaking off near the motor. do your research before you invest and find the blender that works for you.
