Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro
Score: 81/100Rankings
The Cuisinart CPB-380 Hurricane Compact Juicing Blender offers a powerful 500 W motor and a versatile accessory set in a space-saving personal size. Its high noise level and tendency to overheat on prolonged heavy loads limit its suitability for extended heavy-duty blending. Ideal for individuals seeking quick single-serve smoothies and on-the-go convenience.
The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro combines an 1800-W peak motor with BlendSense auto-detect technology and a large 72-oz pitcher for family-size blending. Its size, weight and short cord make it less suitable for small kitchens. Ideal for users who want powerful, hands-free blending with personal cup convenience.
