Since I’ve been using it, I kept thinking there's got to be a better way … one in which all the lumps will be blended smooth … however, it works just fine for making my green soup smooth … somewhat … enough.
So the other day, Landon and I headed over to Costco, on a hunch that they might be having a live demo with the Vitamix blender …. they weren’t … so in my shopping around town, ended up walking over to Kohl’s and saw the NINJA blender ….
6 blades … yeah-uhh that would blend anything smooth … then I took a closer look and read the specs …. a whopping 72 oz capacity … OMG I could feed an entire football team using that … it felt just a little over the top for my personal needs …. we left the store empty handed ….
Landon and I then stopped at Target, more “shopping” as he likes to say … we were looking for curtain rods, and somehow ended up in the blender section … where I found the perfect blender! What I love about it, is the medium size … easy to handle, 48 oz capacity, small footprint, plus bonus chopper … and half the price of the SuperSize 72oz NINJA …
It’s also a NINJA blender. The motor is a pod that you install on top of the pitcher or the chopping cup … imagine if you will, no more trying to pry the bottom off so you can clean the base, rubber ring, and blades … yeah that’s what I’m talking about … the blades just lift out like a food processor and you can easily clean the pitcher, lid, then the blades, and voila … done!
Have I mentioned the 6 stacked blades? **smile** at varying heights … wow … love, love, love this handy little gadget! It has already earned its keep … and I haul it everywhere!
