I bought this product because of past experience with other models. While blending it tightens the blade down to the point that I can't remove it. I had the same experience and therefore I purposely only hand tighten it to the point I think it may leak. It has happened a second time and I am unable to remove the blade with numerous attempts, even putting in the refrigerator to hopefully cool the cup. It is now useless and does not come with a tool to help unsighted the blade like previous models. It does blend well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nutra bullet sits on my countertop for my daily smoothie and protein drinks. I love the power and the convenience.
I replaced my Nutribullet Pro - 900 watt with the Nutribullet Ultra - 1200 watt, and have been using it for 2 weeks. The description of the product says - "It’s engineered to produce sound at a lower frequency than previous models, making it our quietest single-serve blender yet, and its Tritan™ Renew blending cups bring sustainable strength to the table. It’s sleek, it’s powerful, and it delivers the highest quality blends, time after time." This is louder than my Nutribullet Pro (89 decibels vs 85 decibels), and it leaves chunks of fruit or frozen kale every time. I do not load above the Max line, and I load in the order suggested in the manual. I've had chunks of fresh banana, fresh strawberries and frozen kale. I gave it two stars because I like that it automatically shuts off. Thinking of returning the product.
Easy to use, makes quick smoothies, slushy cocktails (during this heatwave!) salad dressings, etc. Easy to clean-- cups are (top) dishwasher safe. Attractive design and takes very LITTLE room on the counter.
I have had this blender for about two months. It blends very well but I do have two pain points. The first is the noise. I would agree it is at a lower frequency than my previous nutribullet but it is way louder. My other issue is the lid for the cups. There is no option for a fixed, non to-go lid. The lid has a tendency to open as the seal isn't strong. Obviously not great when it opens in your backpack on the way to work..
I purchased this product today in the Macys after I read good online reviews and description. It supposed to be quiet but it’s not, it’s much louder than my old Ninja and that was main reason I decided to get this blender. Saying this, I think it blends very nice.
