This gadget is very useful and well worth the money! I've only had it a few days and have only made a few protein shakes/smoothies, but it does a marvelous job and oh so quick and easy. I plan to put it through its paces this weekend and I fully expect it to do a bang-up job.
Initially I was afraid it would be just another gadget that I wouldn't use that much and would be relegated to the back or top storage of the pantry. Not so, I made a place for it, in the most practical space for quick, frequent use.
I was ready to be shocked at the noise, but found it no worse than my Oster blender (which won't get much use now and will be moved the top or back shelf).
The Nutri Ninja Auto IQ appears to be sturdily made and fine quality. Suction cups on the bottom keep it from traveling across the counter. Fill the cup, screw on the blade, invert, pop it in the base, turn it and blend. It's really well done.
I noticed at ninjakitchen.com that you can purchase replacement parts (blade, cups, lids) for a very reasonable price, and that the cups, lids and blades are interchangeable with some of the other similar Nutra Ninja models. So if your Nutra Ninja Pro or 1000 didn't come with a 32 oz cup you can purchase one for $17. If I remember correctly a replacement blade is $20. That was important to me to be able to replace the blade or cups if necessary. You'll enjoy the 32 oz to get all of the fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds in there.
There was no stopping to scrape the sides, shake or try to position the contents to get into the game.
Loved that I drank my protein shake right out of the same container, rinsed the cup & blade and was on my way.
I'd recommend it to anyone. Have fun, be healthy, but make some fun treats with it too!
