NutriBullet Countertop Blender
Score: 78/100Rankings
The NutriBullet Countertop Blender offers a 1200W motor, a 64-oz pitcher and hot-blending capability for high-volume family use. Its larger size, weight and hand-wash-only blades are trade-offs for the added power and capacity. Best for families and frequent smoothie or soup makers who need large batches and hot blending.
The Ninja BL642 combines a 1200 W motor with Auto-iQ programs and three personal cups, offering versatile family and single-serve blending. Its heavy weight and occasional incomplete blending are limitations. Suitable for users who value convenience and quieter operation over portability.

Professional reviewers highlight the BL642's 1200 W motor, Auto-iQ automation, and the inclusion of personal jars as key strengths, noting its quieter operation and versatility for both family and single-serve blending. The main criticisms focus on the absence of smart connectivity and a basic touchpad interface, as well as the unit's substantial weight.
Everyday users love the BL642 for producing smooth, restaurant-quality smoothies with minimal effort and appreciate the easy one-button operation and dishwasher-safe parts. However, a recurring theme of occasional incomplete blending and the heavy, bulky design temper overall enthusiasm.
“makes the smoothest smoothies I've ever had... like magic”
“doesn't blend smoothly at all”
Professional reviewers describe the NutriBullet Countertop Blender as a versatile, high-power kitchen workhorse that excels at both cold smoothies and hot soups, thanks to its 1200-watt motor, cyclonic blades, and vented lid, while noting its larger footprint and weight as trade-offs for the added capacity and functionality.
Everyday users consistently praise the blender's ability to crush ice and blend frozen fruits smoothly, the convenience of the portable cups, and the large pitcher for family-size batches, while occasional complaints focus on leaks, manual blade cleaning, and the unit's bulkiness in smaller kitchens.
