NFT: Awsome Blender deal. Blendtec 1560W for $337.86. Orig $600

I got a 600+ Vitamix refurbished for a similar deal. 300+.

Absolutely love it. Kicks the shit out of the ninja -- although the bullet sized containers did do a good job. But the vitamix really is on another level and I've heard pretty much identical things about the Blendtec... 6 one, half dozen essentially.

My $30.00 blender blends stuff. I always see these guys blending stuff in costco.

.

now also makes a bullet size blender called the S30.

Do a side by side and I think you'll be surprised at the difference in quality and consistency. They are made essentially for juicing while keeping the fiber.

i have the Ninja and it completely rocks
it is same power as Blendtec
1500 watt, 2.5 horsepower motor
but cheaper by 30%
Ninja Ultima Blender - ( New Window )

"MORE POWER!!"

Shit, I can wear out 10 blenders that I buy from Wal Mart and still spend less money.

you'd understand why they cost so much, and why most people that own them feel that they're worth it.

Got it about a year ago for $375. It's really fantastic. You can make soup, ice creap, juices, all kinds of good stuff. We use it all the time. Very easy to clean too which I love.

The main carafe vertical blade sucks. Three weeks into owning one myself the blades dulled and everything came out pulpy. My vita mix that I bought refurbished was $300 it operates just as the day I got it months later. To me if you spend over $50 for a blender should operate flawlessly for longer than two weeks. Spending half or even a third on a blender that compares itself to a high dollar blender but doesn't deliver – I can't justify that -- my wife was actually the one that was attracted to the $ savings. not me. EVERYONE on BBI and several of my friends who own vita mix blenders all told me to go to the vita mix – they were right. I should never of second-guessed the board for suggesting I go with the vita mix – but you have a month to try out on Amazon.com and send it back guilt free if there is a problem. To anyone looking I highly suggest this kind of blender blend tech or vita mix if you know you will use it and appreciate the quality product that it serves – take advantage of this deal.

The three keys to being happy with the purchase are: a good deal. You love it. You need it.

If two out of three rules are true -- buy it and you will never regret it.
