Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher
Score: 71/100
Ninja BL770 Black
Score: 77/100Rankings
The Ninja Mega Kitchen System BL770 is a powerful 1500 W 4-in-1 appliance with large capacities and dishwasher-safe parts. Its trade-offs are high noise levels and a bulky, heavy design that can overwhelm small kitchens. Best suited for families and multitaskers who need versatile, high-capacity blending.
The Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher Blender features a 40-oz glass jar, Wave~Action blending system and Ice Sabre® blades, delivering strong ice-crushing and smooth results for family-size smoothies. Its modest rated power, lack of overload protection, and short cord limit durability for heavy use. Ideal for home users who want a versatile, glass-jar blender for everyday smoothies and frozen drinks.

Professional reviewers commend the BL770 for its versatile 4-in-1 design, high-power motor, and ability to produce silky smoothies and efficiently process large, fibrous batches, while noting that it is louder and bulkier than the simpler Ninja Professional Plus.
Everyday users consistently praise the system's powerful blending, sturdy suction base, long-term durability, rapid dough-making, and the convenience of the personal to-go cups. Recurring complaints focus on the extremely sharp blades, the deafening noise during operation, and the unit's heavy, bulky footprint that challenges small-kitchen storage.
