You’ll love the simplicity & power of this blender. It is second to none when it comes to blending ability & speediness. Although you’ll want to use ear plugs to protect your hearing, it makes perfect & effortless smoothie bowls every time.

I’m all about whether I got my money’s worth, and this gets the job done nicely for my twice daily smoothies. Power hasn’t been an issue for anything I’ve tried. When it comes to cleanup, the threads being inside the bullet is annoying. From a noise perspective it is loud but that’s to be expected at this price point.

Well made, seems to be plenty powerful. If you’re a “waste not” person the blender has scrapers inside to you can get all your yummyness into what you’re blending. Overall great value.

First of all LOVE the size! I have a decent size kitchen but not enough counter space. So, I have to be choosy what I put on the counter. I basically will only put things I am going to be using daily. And, well this is one I am going to be using daily. So, plus on the size. Secondly, I haven’t had a “full size” blender in years, I don’t remember the last one I had. I have a smaller hand held blender, but it won’t blend ice (just smoothies). I am in a new chapter in my life where I am losing weight (lots of weight). I am going to have bariatric surgery soon. And, part of the process is drinking more protein shakes. Well, actually drinking more for the rest of life. I like the protein shakes but I wanted to be able to create other drinks – like with ice and maybe fruit. I just make an iced coffee drink with Atkins coffee flavored protein shake, ice and a little tiny bit of peppermint coffee creamer. It blended it super fast – scared the crap out of my cats but they will get used to it – lol lol. Boy they can run fast when they need too lol lol. I need to keep working on it because I don’t think I added enough ice this time. But, hey it is a process. I also love that after my surgery I have a stage where I can eat food but it has to be blended, smooth. So, I can blend soups and make them super smooth so I can eat them. Also, I am going to try blending other foods. I am actually excited to use this. Couple of things. I had a suction cups on the bottom of the base, BUT you should really hold on to it (don’t walk away from it). Other thing – it is actually easy to assemble. I mention this because I have moderate/severe Rheumatoid Arthritis/Disease. And my wrists and hands are a mess. I was able to put the top on and take it off with not to much difficulty. A little – but not bad enough that I can’t use the unit. They are right – cleaning it pretty easy. So, I am really glad that I purchased this. 🙂

Pros:
• Extremely powerful.
• The presets vary the blade speeds and move materials appropriately without the need to manually pulse, this works surprisingly well.
• The lid creates a vacuum and therefore doesn’t aerate liquids such as milk. Unexpected but pleasant discovery.
• The rotating lid does push materials down into the blade very effectively.
Cons:
• Unbelievably loud. I’ve often wondered If I was damaging my hearing by using it. Think old palm sander 18 inches from your ear.
• If you don’t fully utilize the liquid and solid fill limits, the unit is significantly louder. When it’s full with both solids and liquids, its much quieter.
• The unit vibrates even when secured and could potentially cause excessive wear to the rubber blade housing when it meshed with the motor. Therefore, I hold it still when using it which requires both hands. As a result, I put earplugs in.
• Sometimes the lid locking mechanism doesn’t seem to latch properly or feels a little loose or comes loose when I turn the top part of the unit to push materials down but I always have my hand on the lid for safety and catch it right away.
• Water from washing or other Liquids can get trapped inside the lid making it smell musty. There are internal areas you cannot clean or reach because they are inside the lid housing the rotational components.
• Manufacturer site claims BPA free
Tips:
• You’ll probably always be tempted to remove the lid while the pitcher is attached to the base for one reason or another when you are done making something. Don’t do that, it’ll always result in a mess. Wait for the cycle to finish or the motor to fully stop. Remove the pitcher first then open the lid over the sink because material will always slide off the prongs attached to the lid.
Despite these minor drawbacks, I’ve been using it twice a day since my purchase and haven’t had a single issue. Best kitchen purchase I’ve made in a long time.

I opened the box and the packagaging wasn’t that great. I honestly thought it might have been previously opened but I washed all the components and gave it a go.
This thing is LOUD, but it blends like a champ.
Easy to change containers with the blade, easy to clean, the large blender has a lid that you can twist on the top to help move the contents around if they don’t fully blend. Pretty neat little blender.
makes great smoothies and has an automatic timer so it stops when everything has been blended.

My last blender is o l d – as in belonged to my parents – and I am at “grandmother age”! My husband wanted to get me the Ninja Nutri Bullet as a gift and I was lukewarm about ordering it…as I said I did not know that I needed this! After some thought though I began looking at various Ninja models and when I saw the Twisti I knew it was the right model for me. More versatile that the Nutri Bullet (imho) and it has a significantly higher wattage, plus it includes the cups that had drawn me to the Nutri Bullet originally.
I have only been using this beast for only a day, but I am thoroughly impressed! This machine is just so good!
I made fruit and yoghurt smoothies with extra protein today and they were ready in a flash! So good! The parts are all easy to remove and take apart and they are very easy to clean. The container and the cups are made of a quality plastic – like Lexan…sturdy and well made. I question the longevity of the blade assembly simply because it is plastic (old blenders had glass containers and the blades were set into metal), but since I see that replacement parts are available and not very costly I am not worried. I also don’t think that any parts will need replacement any time soon because this machine is very well made. It sits on the counter very securely with gripper suction cups that actually work exceedingly well.
Pros:
1. Fantastic motor and wattage
2. Not huge – does not take up much counter space
3. Works thoroughly and quickly
4. Has tamper legs that can be rotated as you blend (not available when you are using the cups – only with the large container
5. Well made!
6. Capable of doing things like making nut butters, crushing ice, and so much more
7. Replacements parts like cups, containers, blades, seal rings etc are readily available and not too costly
Possible Cons
1. Longevity for plastic parts with the blade assembly ?
I am very happy with this blender and think it is a little powerhouse!

Already using it for a month or so, and its amazing, perfect for my needs (2 people house). It can crush ice nicely, enough amount of power, lids are doing good. Only downside is that it is quite noisy, but it is a powerful blender, so it is justified i think.

Blender is very nice looking small and compact for easy storage. I think its a little loud but it is great for milkshakes, smoothies and much more. I used it as a coffee grinder since the one I had stopped working and it worked like a charm.
