Plastic breaks off drinking lid

I have had this model for about 6 months now. Everything works as it should. But, the to-go lids have a flaw. The part that covers the drinking spout has a small piece of plastic break off into my protein shake. It has happened three times now. Luckily I have seen it in my drink and not chocked on it. Be careful about that lid.
The ultra, the cups are more slender, the blade connects to the cup is over complicated. Liquid is getting into the groves. I should've never donated my 900 one.
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.
