I got this from a Robert Dyas offer on here last year (came to less than £40 delivered).
I've used it every day since and find it excellent. I can't really see any downsides or how it could be significantly bettered, particularly at this price. It comes with only one set of blades (I think the expensive Nutribullets may come with a spare blade base ?). It seems solid enough and well made with good rubber suction feet that stop it vibrating on the kitchen surface.
It's very powerful at 1000w and demolishes frozen fruit / ice / nuts etc. in seconds and leaves no little bits (eg nuts) either .. just a smooth liquid to drink :-).
However it is best to add liquid to frozen fruit/veg etc to keep the smoothie at least pourable, otherwise you end up with a thick paste that the motor will slow slightly and get quite hot. I use semi or skimmed milk, Almond milk or Coconut milk for this rather than water.
It comes with three beakers, the largest being 1 litre ... so this is an advantage if you want to make smoothies for two !
I find it very easy to clean
My tips would be :
1. Never overfill it - best to keep under the three- quarter mark of the beakers.
2. Screw the beakers into the bade base quite tightly as they can loosen during blending (and leak)
3. Never use it for more than 30 seconds at a time (as per instructions) - that is plenty anyway.
4. Rinse the blades straight away after blending
5. Keep the outer sealing ring in the blade base clean (it's like a white silicone sealing ring)
6. To blend you either push and hold the beaker down for a few seconds or you can push and twist clockwise to lock the beaker in the blend position and remove you hand while it blends. Be careful when untwisting (to stop the blending) that you don't lift the beaker at the same time before the blades have fully stopped. I've done this a few times initially and it can grates/grind the contact points between the bottom of the beaker unit and the main unit.
7. There are three white plastics slots on the base unit that push down when the beaker+blades is attached for blending. These can occasionally get sticky (from leaks) and stiff. Every now and again they need cleaning by dabbing / pushing with hot water and kitchen roll - MAKE SURE UNIT IS OFF AT THE MAINS WHEN DOING THIS !!

Ah the myth of smoothies and blending fruits being 'healthy' when they're anything but...

Can confirm these are just as good if not better than nutribullet. Really impressed with my one.

I bought the ninja on offer from john lewis 2 yr gtee and price match. I was told if anything goes wrong with it they dont send it for repair, they give you a brand new one in store. That alone for me helped me decide. I also did alot of research and the ninja/nutribullet were v similar, however you need a 1000 motor to crush ice and to mix frozen fruit.
Looks like very. I'm not buying from there because they just want to make you buy on credit etc and feels like a subsidiary of very, who I'm boycotting because they are dodgy.

The nutri ninja still does a good job and you get the feelgood factor of having a well known brand.
