Magic Bullet Blender
Score: 63/100Rankings
The Ninja BN701 Professional Plus offers a 1400-peak-W motor, Total Crushing 6-blade system and Auto-iQ presets in a 72-oz pitcher, excelling at ice-crushing and batch smoothies. Its loud noise, heavy build, and lack of single-serve accessories may deter some buyers. Perfect for households needing high-capacity, powerful blending with convenient cleaning.
The Magic Bullet 11-Piece Blender offers a compact design, a high-torque 250 W motor and a full set of accessories for quick single-serve blends. Its limited power, single-speed operation and plastic jar restrict its ability to handle tougher tasks. Best suited for solo users or travelers who need fast, lightweight blending for soft foods.

Professional reviewers commend the BN701 for its 1400-peak-watt motor, Total Crushing blades and Auto-iQ presets, noting it outperforms the older BL610 and delivers reliable ice-crushing power for family-size batches, while pointing out the high noise level and lack of single-serve accessories.
Everyday users praise the blender's ability to quickly pulverize frozen fruits and ice, the convenience of one-touch Auto-iQ programs, and the ease of cleaning thanks to dishwasher-safe parts. The most frequent complaints revolve around loud operation, the unit's heft, and the missing personal jars for individual servings.
Professional reviewers commend the Magic Bullet for its compact footprint, high-torque motor, and intuitive press-and-twist operation, noting it excels at quick prep of smoothies, sauces, and soft foods. However, they also point out its limited power and single-blade design make it unsuitable for hard items like nuts or ice, and it lacks the versatility of multi-speed, full-size blenders.
Everyday users appreciate the convenience of rapid 10-second recipes, the portable mug accessories, and the easy cleanup, especially for single-serve smoothies and on-the-go snacks. Common complaints focus on the blender's inability to handle nuts or ice effectively, uneven blending that requires manual shaking, and the blade not reaching the bottom of the cup.
