    We use almost once a week, very light usage, although the motor had a malfunction that wasn’t repairable. Ninja offers a replacement that will take 4 weeks to receive and I will have to pay $60 delivery fees. A very bad warranty and low quality product.

    The motor caught on fire & smoked out my kitchen. Defective product. Returned immediately. I’m done with Ninja products. They die conveniently a few months after the warranty expires & their all cheap plastic that breaks apart after using short period of time. The electrical panels fail. I’m disappointed that they die so quickly for the price this is absolutely a waste of money. Terrible China made garbage.

    Ninja products are my favorite because they last FOREVER! I had a Hamilton beach blender that gave out almost immediately and the buttons weren’t functioning.

    Both blender and processor work OK, but in general I’m kind of unimpressed. Tried to process cranberries and just made soupy mess at bottom and top wasn’t even blended. Then tried soft cooked squash with olive oil in blender and it really had to work to get it pureed and because of square design chunks get stuck in the corners. I thought getting a Ninja would be a splurge to invest in high quality but turns out could have gotten the $30 for same outcome. Such is life..

    Works great and overall a great blender however I accidentally dropped the pitcher from my counter to floor and it it cracked. Very disappointed after it happen because i spent more money on it than your regular cheaper blender thinking I would have it for a while and it lasted a little over a year. Never did I think it would crack from a fall. I would recommend to others but maybe warn them as well, so this is your warning or maybe this was just my bad luck. I don’t know if I want to risk purchasing again though.
