I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

    I just struggled with any blender where the blades were only at the bottom. Was always a fight to get it to blend everything.

      That’s usually actually down to technique - you need to fill “normal” blenders in a specific way to have enough liquid on the bottom to make the vortex.

        It’s also heavily dependent on the shape of the jug. For example, even just among Vitamix blenders, the restaurant-standard 5200 with the tall skinny container apparently works noticeably better than the 5300 with the low-profile (short and fat) container designed to fit under kitchen cabinets.

      I like that the top comes off and becomes a bottle. I can’t turn it on with my hand inside and cleaning is a lot easier.
