Ninja Blenders

Spend less time preparing your meals and smoothies by churning and pureeing them with Ninja® blenders. This brand makes programmable blending machines with high-power motors and strong stainless steel blades. These appliances blend fresh food ingredients together and also extract juices from them to make healthy beverages. Staples® carries a good selection of blenders made by Ninja as well as other breakroom appliances.

Choose From Different Models of Ninja Blenders
All of Ninja's blending machines can also double as juicers. While they come in different heights and weights, they share the same design. These appliances have heavy-duty motors inside their bases. The suction cups in their rubber feet keep them planted and prevent wobbling even when mixing and pureeing foods at their highest speed settings. These blenders also ship with multiple blade assemblies and blending vessels.

The entry-level model is a powerful juicer for making smoothies from fruits and vegetables. It blends foods inside two slender single-serve cups with silicone lids. Ninja's midrange blenders have more powerful motors and include bowls in addition to cups. You can juice as well as blend ingredients for meals and soups with these multifunctional appliances. The top-range model can double as a food processor thanks to its extra-large pitcher and very strong blades that can crush ice and frozen foods.

Key Features to Consider When Comparing Ninja Blenders
The power rating of a blender's motor is a good indication of its performance. The smallest blending machine in Ninja's current lineup has a 400-watt motor. It is powerful enough to chop and extract juices from fruits with tough skins. If you want a model that can blend seeds and leafy greens easily, pick a 1000 or 1200-watt unit. The brand's flagship blenders have 1500-watt motors and can crush ice and blend whole fruits.

Capacity is another factor to consider when selecting a blender. Single-serve units are ideal for personal use. These have containers that can hold 2 to 3 cups of liquefied blends. To prepare meals for a family, find a Ninja blender with a 4 to 9-cup capacity like the DUO™ models. These have 72-ounce pitchers equipped with carry handles, lids, and pour spouts.

What Are the Benefits of the Auto-IQ® Technology in Ninja Blenders?
The Auto-IQ feature is unique to Ninja appliances. It describes a series of pre-programmed settings that deliver consistent results when blending. The feature combines different speed settings including timed pulsing and brief pauses. Users can trigger these blending combinations with single button presses. There is a different Auto-IQ blending pattern for each of the jars included with the brand's blenders.

Do Ninja Blenders Use Plastic or Glass Vessels?
The brand uses plastic cups, bowls, and pitchers for its vessels. These are made of BPA-free plastic. Ninja makes its cups from Tritan™, a lightweight plastic polymer that is lighter than glass and highly shatter-resistant. Tritan cups do not release toxic compounds into liquefied blends stored inside them and are also dishwasher safe.

What Kind of Controls Do Ninja Blenders Have?
All of the brand's blending machines have sealed push button controls and some have a small LCD for timer function. Covering their raised buttons with transparent plastic film keeps out spilled liquids. These protected controls are also easier to clean than dials and switches.
