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

A Candid Review of the 1200 Watt Nutribullet Blender
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 blending2. After a period of use, the extractor (which attaches to the blender base and has the blades) can begin to ooze some of the lubricantsI 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. ]

Amazing blender for frozen drinks!
I absolutely love this thing. I have a slushie addiction, and it got costly to order just a slushie for delivery from Sonic, so I tried this blender in hopes it would make my addiction less costly. I am amazed at this blender. It blends ice that my freezer makes smoothly with no chunks. I’ve also blended fruits to make a juice in it, and it blended with almost no pulp left, AND I left the skin on the fruit. (the recipe included a lemon and a lime) It’s a great blender and well worth the money. Now I can have a slushie any time I want! I have seen no leaks since I’ve had it, and the blades are super sharp. It’s easy to use and very fast to clean up. No issues with the buttons or functions either. I absolutely ADORE this blender!

Blender !
Very good blender and mixer. A little bulky. Need a lot of space to storage in the cabinets . If you leave it on the counter top it will use lot of space. But works with good power and blend almost everything

Best blender ever!
Best blender ever! I had the original nutribullet for ever and I use it as my main blender. So I decided to upgrade to this model and is the best thing that happened to me. I been using this non stop for almost 7 months a there isn’t a thing this blender can blend 🤭 I love to make soup for my girls and they won’t notice there is veggies in there, you won’t feel any bumps or lumps the most sharp blades you ever have. Also easy to clean! it’s a big blender, I will put my hole hand in there and clean it super easy! Don worry about ice, the blades can shop anything!!!!!

Muy buena licuadora, tritura mejor que otras que he tenido

Eu amei a qualidade!! Chegou antes do previsto bem embalado. O liquidificador é perfeitoooo!

Super eficiente, molí el chile colorado para las enchiladas, no tuve la necesidad de colarlo, evita el desperdicio. La fruta, para preparar el agua fresca, sucede lo mismo, es minimo el desperdicio.
