nutribullet Full-Size Blender Combo 1200W NBF50500 - Dark Gray

This NutriBullet blender is powerful and works extremely well for smoothies, shakes, soups, and more. It blends fruits, vegetables, and even harder ingredients smoothly and quickly. The motor feels strong, and the overall build quality is excellent. I also really like the convenience of having both the single-serve cups and the full-size pitcher. The only small thing I wish were different is that the blades on the large pitcher were removable, which would make cleaning a bit easier. That said, it’s still easy to rinse and maintain with proper care. Overall, this is a fantastic blender that performs exactly as expected. Highly recommended for everyday use. Read more

I researched numerous reviews on blenders; some quite expensive and others uber cheap. After a near exhaustive search I settled in on the nutribullet, which seemed to have the best blend of features, quality (as rated by reviewers), and price. If you go through the product reviews on Amazon you will see people love the product, but there is consistent criticism about two things: 1. There is a tendency of liquid to leak from the smoothie cups while blending 2. After a period of use, the extractor (which attaches to the blender base and has the blades) can begin to ooze some of the lubricants I spoke to a few people who own the less expensive nutribullet product (those with the 600 and 900 watt units). They have confirmed the first of these two complaints (tendency of liquid to leak from the smoothie cups while blending) and also indicated that the 600 watt units are not really powerful enough. That said, let me give you the much better news regarding the 1200 watt unit that comes with 64 Oz pitcher and two 24 Oz smoothie cups. I have not experienced the issue of liquid leaking while blending. Unlike the 600 and 900 watt units, all the seals on the various containers that come with the 1200 watt unit are tight. The product in my experience seems to be well made and well designed. I guess because the motor (on the 1200 watt unit) is powerful, it easily whips up smoothies with ice in a matter of seconds. Also, today I made kale soup in the 64 Oz pitcher which it easily turned into a silky smooth puree. Older blenders I have used in the past would blend everything in the bottom of the pitcher, but not any content towards the top. That was frustrating, as it would be necessary to intermittently stop, push undermixed food content down towards the blades and resume. Thankfully, this is not the case here with the nutribullet. It easily blends everything with the large pitcher (and of course with the smoothie cups). Another plus is that it is extremely easy to clean. I want to cycle back to second identified complaint that people have remarked about the extractor component. People have reported that this can be an issue after roughly a year's usage. I have not had the nutribullet long enough to encounter this problem (I purchased the nutribullet earlier this summer). What I can say is that the company - nutribullet, sells the extractor component separately to the tune of around $20. So, if this component wears out it is easily replaced without much expense. A have a few more thoughts I want to add: 1. Experience will vary on how people use the product. The accompanying documentation says when making smoothies never fill the cup above the Max line and don't exceed 25% of the volume with ice. When blending hot liquids like soup, only use the large pitcher with the small opening at the top. Respecting things like that will likely make for a better user experience in the long run. 2. There is a very small price difference between the nutribullet Full-Size Blender Combo 1200W and the 900W Pro (was something like $16 when I purchased the 1200W unit). Actually I was lucky as Amazon had it on sale for $99. [Don't shortchange yourself with the less powerful 600 and 900 watt units - get the better product; I think it is well worth buying. ] Read more

Works well , easy to clean , easy to assemble. I have no problem with this blender. Don’t smell burn plastic when it’s working. Good plastic material. I like this cups because they have good capacity. Read more

I love this blender. I bought this to make salsas and sauces which i make regularly. I love having two options cup and standard blender jar. This looks nice to keep out on my counter with blender cup on it which makes it easy to use often. I have the jar attachment put away but its easy to pull out when needed Blender is easy to use chops thru the ingredients with no problem i had a Hamilton Beach blender but the lid never stayed on right. I had to hold it down tight. This one stays on with no problem when using jar but i use the cup the most for my 1-3x a week regular salsa. I had broken my magic bullet and got this as a replacement and am very satisfied. It does still have a smell when using but hopefully it goes away eventually Read more

Super blender, it easily cuts through everything I tried including frozen veg or fruit. The only downside is that the high intensity is pretty loud, my 2 year old is scarred... But I love the size of the 68 Oz, and the 2 extra 24 Oz I'd buy it if it's in a reasonable price Read more

I love the fact that it comes with the full size and smaller version. I use the smaller one more often for smoothies and shakes and it’s powerful, blends ice easily, easy to use, doesn’t leak and easy to clean. Read more

We worked our Ninja to death. When it came time for a replacement, this looked like the better option. It was a very wise choice. We have been impressed with the speed, power, efficiency, and noise level. I make daily smoothies and it is a breeze. It was excellent value for the money, storage capacity and it just works so well.

My frozen fruit and spinach smoothies are so smooth! I used to have a magic bullet and i thought smoothies were supposed to be chunky this whole time!! This thing you can’t even tell what you originally put in there it is so smooth. The blender cups are big and the plastic is thick. The motor is actually powerful and all I need to do is put everything in the blender cup hit extract and walk away and i come back to a perfect smoothie every time! The motor is so powerful it just blasts through fully frozen fruit. It is a bit loud that’s also why I walk away from it but for the price and quality I’m ok with that i really want more blender cups so i don’t have to keep washing it everyday… I’ll have to see if I can find just the cups!
