Target audience is people like me. I work 14-16 hour shifts an hour away from my home and I drink smoothies for breakfast. It’s hard to eat them on the go or to find healthy alternatives that are open when I’m working (graveyard shift). I also sleep in my car while working more than one day in a row. It’s great for people on the go with long hours, or folks who don’t have access to a wall plug in for the normal blender base.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Well that's a perfect use case, you're right! - J

[@Squeak61]

You didn’t read directions! Load ice on top of everything.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

I worked through it, made for some funny outtakes. It’s all good ! Marc

[@anjy7062]

What he says is wrong "You can't drink without a mixer". There are 2 black caps in the box. one for the blade and one for the drinking container below.

[@TheHailstorm77]

@@TheAverageKitchenNinja tends to make bold statements but failed. lol. Those ice 🧊 are huge and you put a lot in. I recommend to use actual small ice cubes instead. Put like only 5 small ice cubes. Pour water first at bottom, then fruits and couple of ices not a lot. The portal blender is nowhere near as powerful as the Ninja Mega blender which is 1800 watt. It has more power and torque than these small portable blenders. I have both blender Jet 2 and this Ninja Blast. The purpose of these portable blender is for mostly adults taking to work and using them. You can bring spring water bottle, small frozen smoothie bag and works ice machine. So this blender is very convenient for you at work

[@sparta7660]

@@TheHailstorm77, how did they fail? The direction clearly states to fill with liquid first. Then add ice last. I have one and I use regular ice cubes, never had a problem.

[@TheHailstorm77]

@@sparta7660did you just literally not read my entire response? Read again. How big were their ice? Do you know how many voltage watts this machine has? I have like 3 Ninja Blasts in my house and these portal blenders require lots of water and small ice cubes. In fact, you don’t need ice cubes just frozen fruits will make a frozen smoothie. These portable blenders are not as powerful as the Ultimate NINJA blenders that have 1500 watt power.

[@TheGabrielStudios]

I had knock off versions of these in the past. One thing that helps a lot it is to start the blender in a horizontal position and calmly turn it vertically. The key thing is let the blades get momentum and torque before starts crushing ice.

[@niko4074]

What do you think of it so far?

[@meljane8339]

A (life-long) professional mixologist info: you need at least 1/4c liquid. Water is not always the best flavour you can use. There are several medium to use rather than ice, yogurt is one. With powders, you need to cover the bottom with liquid, place your powder, and then the remainder of liquid, etc. If you use anything carbonated, to u need to temper the carbonation before adding it to the mixture / before adding more items to the carbonated beverage. ... thanks for the demo, I am glad to know what to expect about the product: it looks good, from MHO.(my humble opinion).

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Thanks for the great comment! - J

[@meljane8339]

@TheAverageKitchen I just realized my language in this comment, the part about carbonation, is possibly difficult to understand. So, I reiterate: When mixing carbonated liquid, take a sampling of what substance the soda will be mixed with and thoroughly introduce that substance before completely mixing (unless effect is desired, etc).

If you don't want to share your blender with others, then you are a selfish brat!! And if that's how you feel then expect your collage student to be despised by others!! It's a blender, not a car! And to be perfectly honest. If a Roomate saw person with a portable blender. And ask to use it and the other person said no, this is your Roomate and you say no to something you shouldn't so no too,expect that Roomate to wipe there butt with their toothbrush. Blender!! Not a car!!

great for travel. i lways take fruit from the breakfast buffet or conferences i attend. also, you can probably get more charges if you charge it fully. it works right out of the box but you’re supposed to charge it fully first (2hrs). liquid on the bottom, soft stuff, then powers, and ice at the top and it hasn’t failed me yet. great review and thanks for pushing it to almost failure:)

I travel a lot to square dance conventions. I don't make frozen concoctions, I just use a plant based milk, etc. and protein powder to make my breakfast. I will sometimes spend 3 or 4 days in a hotel and I want my breakfast smoothie. I don't always want to get up in time for the hotel breakfast.

Saw the Ninja Blast at Costco this week. Box comes with 2 drink containers. I think it was selling for about $90 Cdn. Was curious about it as I had purchased a portable blender online (never arrived, no contact from company 😕) & had purchased a Vivitar from Walmart in the US for about $20. It sucks. Vessel goes over the motor, doesn’t twist into it, resulting in liquid going around the outer shell of the motor base, though it’s still contained inside the vessel. But back to your review of the Ninja Blast. I think it was first in the KZbin search results 🙂. I think it’s geared to people who want to blend and go, like me. Pop it into the car’s cup holder. I like the flip top lid. I’ll probably just stick with my NutriBullet for my smoothies. I just pour into two Tupperware drink bottles with twist on lid and flip top cap for dipping or with a straw. Thanks for the informative video.

I don’t think these blender are meant to crush ice alone . You need fluid. I bought the blend jet 2 after a video saying it doesn’t blast through ice. Happy I bought my blenjet, it’s amazing.

[@Jaylin_01]

I had bought a Blendjet portable blender but two things I didn't like number 1 it did not come apart like this one does so if you let any smoothie start to dry it is hard to get down and clean the blade with your hand because sometimes just blending it with soap and water doesn't get all of it off the blade and. Number 2 I tried blending it with just unfrozen strawberries and milk and a couple of ice cubes because I didn't want frozen strawberries to be to hard on the blade but it turned out that a fresh strawberry it could not even handle it got smooshed and stuck under the blade and would not blend it was so chunky so I returned it and like this one you can't take it off of the vessel at all though for any reason at least the Ninja can come apart to wash better I still wish the blade could come off but at least you can take the plastic off and spray off the blade I have always like Ninja products so I am thinking this one might be better than the blendjet I just like them for the cordless part of it and the size sometimes I don't want to make a big amount or me and the kids all want a different flavor so I can just make different shakes and just rinse out between without having to use my big one

You absolutely can take apart the blendjet 2.

[@Jaylin_01]

Maybe they updated it but when I got the first models of them that thing would not come apart I tried and I didn't see no where in the instructions that said it could only the lid so I had to try and fit my hand down the whole blender to get to scrub the blade but my hand didn't fit I bottle scrubber might have worked it would not blend a unfrozen strawberry anyways so that was the other reason why I returned it@@moeazizi

[@moeazizi]

@@Jaylin_01 It always came apart. You just needed to twist it real good. I hardly ever take mine apart anyway. The way you wash it is simple. Just fill it with hot water about half way, squeeze a drop or two in, put the lid back on and turn it on for one cycle. It gets super clean. I've tried a lot of other brands but this one has the strongest motor of all and the shortest charge time for the battery. Buy yourself another one and enjoy. I use mine every single day for fruit smoothies.

Great question,…But we didn’t design or manufacture it lol

[@JamesPakele]

I don't have this blender, but I use the crushed ice that comes out of the freezer door as a "Pre game"... Also, like 1/8th teaspoon or maybe less of xanthan gum will get that smooth Jamba/frappe consistency... Small bag goes a very long way

Great tips! - J

[@liniethridge312]

You MUST put water in first

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Yes sir/ma'am! - J

CAN YOU LEAVE IT PLUGGED IN

[@TheAverageKitchen]

I suppose so, the same way you *could* leave a phone plugged in. You can, but probably wouldn't. - J

[@outsiide.hollywood]

i don’t care about it being portable i just wanted a good single blender

[@TheAverageKitchen]

🤙

[@outsiide.hollywood]

Like a hang 10, thumbs up kind of thing. - J

Great Review

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Thanks for watching ! Marc

[@sk8queen]

SHAKE IT. I even shake my Nutribullet. It works. Even Nutribullets get stuck.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Good tip! - J

[@derekstollsteimer3163]

There is a line on the machine stating the minimum amount of liquid required.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Yes I believe there is. Thanks for watching! - J

[@denisebotko7456]

You're supposed to put the liquid in first...

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Lesson learned. Marc

[@cknight4281]

Barely could blend protein powder with water. I feel like this was a big waste of money.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

That was your experience? - J

[@cknight4281]

Ninja actually told me I should try shaking the blender while blending. I get better results using a shaker cup.

[@eternalbeing3339]

Its a portable magic bullet for fruit smoothies. Use a voltrx for just protein mixing.

[@davidwilley4524]

The Nutribullet 600 is 74 decibels.Ninja nutri pro iq 1000 watts is 77 decibels.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Fair enough! - J

[@pLuv76]

It also says to charge it straight out of the box for 2 hour beforenuse🤦🏽‍♂️

[@TheAverageKitchen]

👍

[@kMaxRx]

Can't hear how loud the blender is because it's fast forwarded. Every time. Only reason I clicked was to hear the noise.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

It's loud. - J

[@MattNificent518]

Ninja recommends liquid first

[@TheAverageKitchen]

🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@jacquelinemassinello3451]

It’s just like the blend jet !! Thanks for making me laugh !!

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Thanks for watching !! Marc

[@RJMelendez82]

Exact reason why I’m here. 🤣 issues with first operation

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Lol. Hope we helped! - J

[@RJMelendez82]

@@TheAverageKitchen you did… but I’m still struggling with it because I’m in car and didn’t put enough water either. I’m on like take 43 also 🤣

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Haha well good luck! - J

[@youceftoun6300]

Ice is the last one in

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Good tip! - J

[@EcclestoN00]

£73.50 = $125 CAD, That's hella expensive, I paid £49 for mine.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Yup for sure, but that’s last year. Ninja seems to come out of the gate really expensive, then start reducing the price. Marc

[@jamesbomar3903]

You're supposed to put a little liquid in there with the ice.

[@TheAverageKitchen]

Thanks! - J
