It may be cliché, but it seems common sense is uncommon. Prior to purchasing my FIRST Nuti Ninja as a family Christmas gift last year I poured over the reviews of various products here on Amazon and there seemed to be a common theme among the negative reviews, sanitation and leaks.
After using my blender for the better part of 10 months I've come to a conclusion. #1 DON'T OVERFILL #2 CLEAN THE SEAL.
I'm sure all of us at some point have been guilty of over filling a conventional blender and the result is material fit for a comedy.
If you disintegrate a solid object into a billion pieces it's going to take up more space. The blender will become a pressure vessel & hydraulic forces will find a way out. DON'T OVER FILL this or any blender for that matter. I suppose too if the base is cross threaded it won't form a proper seal.
If you look at the reviews of ALL brands of blenders there is a common thread to all the negative comments. Are all blenders poorly designed? Not likely. It more plausible to me that a certain percentage of folks either ignore the directions or are in such a hurry they over fill the container. Of course there is the possibility a individual product is defective but that's going to happen regardless of brand.
The Second big issue seemed to be cleanliness / sanitation.
In my opinion not only is the seal removable on the ninja but it is absolutely imperative that you do so, no amount of soap and water is going to clean around the seal, once you see how it is constructed I'm sure you'll agree. I guess they're fragile if you go digging it out with a buck knife but don't do that , use the correct tool. Again this issue is not unique to the ninja but common with many blenders.
The seal on the ninja is not an O ring or flat gasket style , It's a 8mm wide silicone 1mm thick pcompression seal and with a little care can be removed allowing for proper cleaning of the seal and its seat. AND REPLACEMENT SEALS ARE AVAILABLE if it does get damaged over time, I located scores of sellers online.
Once a week at a minimum I use a dental style pick tool to carefully lift the seal out for a thorough cleaning.
Once you pull that seal out and observe how it's made it all makes sense.
So, don't put too much stuff in it and take 5 minutes a week to clean the seal and you'll be golden.
Now on to the good stuff.
For a personal blender in a pregnant category where many sell for $200.00 to $400.00 this comes in at the low end of the price range but appears to have good quality control using the same materials as higher priced designs. The walls of the blending cups are thick as are the stainless blades.
Another feature I noticed was the where the motor drive mates with the blade cap, the latter is made of a softer material that absorbs shock rather than transmitting it thru the drive assembly reducing the chance of fractures.
No it's not quiet by any stretch of the imagination but the vast majority of the noise seems to be produced by the blending process not the motor itself.
I read a review by one poor soul who's unit belched sparks out the motor ventilation ports, needless to say an isolated issue.
In summary; I've used my ninja for 10 months on average 6 days pre week. I've put every combination of foods in from ginger root to grapes , yogurt to yucca , cucumber to cranberries, peanuts to passion fruit and with the proper ratio of solid to liquid filled to the correct level I can honestly say I've never had a problem . I've concocted some nasty tasting mixtures I'll never do again but the ninja still looks & performs like new.
I'm a very skeptical customer and was in a quandary about which blender to buy. Every brand was on the table, Oster Bruan Vitamix Jamba Juice Blendtec NutriBullet and believe me I have no problem returning a sub par product but this little guy has given me no reason to say anything but good things.
There's literally millions of these out there being used by every variety of person and the odds are some will have a bad experience. Is the vast majority that love these & haven't had an issue wrong? Or is it more likely the few that for whatever reason had a bad experience are upset and vocal? Common sense tells you the answer. Even Rolex has its critics.
One last thing, The 32oz cup is a handy addition to consider. I can easily make drinks for three in one shot & be done with it.
I received nothing in return for my review.
I am in no way associated with this product.
I am a 56-year-old retired truck driver.
I highly recommend this product.

I purposely waited a bit to write this review to see if this item would hold up, and unfortunately it did not. As for the power and ability to make a great smoothie, it is fantastic. However, it is a cheap piece of plastic except for the motor and wears out very easily. The blade assembly that you insert into the motor must be situated exactly right. If not, it could easily strip the unit. This is what happened to me, basically rendering the unit useless.
I called Ninja since this is well within warranty but was told the warranty was for the motor only and a blade replacement was not available.
However, they would be willing to replace the whole unit for the cost of the blade assembly which was $39.99 plus $6.99 shipping and sales tax.
So basically, I would be paying another $49.99 for a replacement unit that I already paid $69.99 for back in January, and probably would not last anyway? It makes no sense to me and I won't do it.

This is my second one as first started leaking out of bottom electrical area. I am a big fan. Takes just seconds to throw in a few veggies and salad leaves and make a veggie drink. Great price for its versatility, small footprint. I try to drink my veggies every day.
