glad i read comments first to realize this video tells you nothing
What is a personal blender?!? It's a blender!!!! Nothing personal about it!!!
What about beast blender?
did i just watch an ad?
Just happened to be in the market for one of these and 3 yrs seems to be like a long time. Here's to hoping for an update.
I wish I could see a review on the beast blender.
I'd be embarrassed to advocate a ninja or nutrabullet. Their provenance is just – – – well – – – embarrassing.
bravo!!
I got the NutriNinja autoIQ Pro, and it did NOT last. It was Expensive and now I have to buy a new blender. Not cool.
All of those styles are sealed vessels and some have been known to explode with serious injury. I need a smaller regular blender with a press fit top.
Love ATK and they do the reviews, without customers wasting there money…
This was one of the best videos in the beginning until the end which sucks. You literally hit on every point that I wanted to know and then only told us the most expensive blender. Thumbs down
Would like to see the runner up and why it fell short. It would be nice to see a chart with each model number and a score given for each area the blender was tested. Also your web site should not require a paid membership. I would rather ads be shown.
Which blender crushes ice the best, and will hold up well? Ice usually kills my (I admit, I cheap out sometimes…) blenders. THIS TIME, I want the BEST! (Yes, I understand it has to do the other blending as well.) I need one that's "family sized", and I promise to get a GOOD one this time! After all of the blenders I've purchased, I could have had one that was gold plated! Thank you to whoever knows what brand I should trust for pure BRAWN!
I'll stick with my $10 Walmart 220w personal blender. Magic bullet knock off. It's all I need.
Still wondering how you get the smoothie into the cup
I don't believe there is still a real vendor in youTube untill I meet dumpsandrew on telegram you are legit bro 💯💯
There is a design flaw in this blender that you should be aware of.
In the blade section of the maker there is ring sealer to stop leaks.
The problem is the ring itself is not guarded from water or other food particles from getting in. This results in the ring becoming a magnet for mold. It also will start smelling rotten. I just return mine due to this. My research has found similar problems. Please report this
Wife bought me a Nutribullet 900. Was loud from the first day but after a couple of months was "hearing damage" loud! Not kidding. Junk.
Would have liked to know how loud these blenders are and what thoughts you have after long term testing.
If im gunna watch smoothie reviews im glad the lady looks like this. Im not saying she looks bad. Just the opposite. Her demeanor gives off strong "I know wtf a good blender is" vibes
why didn't you test the Breville?
The Nutribullet Pro is better than the Ninja product mentioned.
Here's a list that helped me out.

In the end, I went with #7.

Useful!
Love my Vitamix blending cups.
why dont you have a video about the juicers?
So far everything I own that was recommended by America's Test Kitchen has been good; the Broil King griddle, KitchenAid slow cooker, Chef's Choice knife sharpener and the Presto waffle maker. I have a Ninja blender on order. My VitaMix with the blades way down at the bottom is a pain to clean.
