I wouldnt be surprised if this blender could blend rocks, but obviously dont do that.
I made creamy peanut butter in 3 minutes and smoothies in seconds.
Screw suspense, Im just going to come out and say it.
The Ninja Detect Power pro with BlendSense is one of thebest blendersIve ever used, if notthebest.
I jest, but I seriously adore this blender.
It performs like it should cost over $500 and have a nice shiny Vitamix label.
I know, I wouldnt believe it either.
This is by far one of the most impressive blenders Ive ever used, regardless of price.
Ill go through everything in full in this Ninja Detect Power Pro with BlendSense review.
With the Ninja Detect Power Pro with BlendSense, youre kind of getting two blenders in one.
I really think this is a great price for a blender of this power.
TheNutribullet Smart Touchblender is $99, but its nowhere near as powerful.
When I tried to make nut butter in the Nutribullet, it did not go well.
Guess which blender came out on top every time?
Why is this not more common on pitcher blenders?
Why only food processors?
It makes life so much easier.
I cleaned the Detect Power Pro quickly and easily with no food residue left in hard-to-reach places.
But, I hear you ask, didnt Ninja already have an AI-tinged feature called AutoIQ?
Yes, yes it did.
Well, whats the difference between the pre-existing AutoIQ and the new BlendSense?
Well, how different can it be?
Its a blender, blending.
I put the Detect Power Pro with BlendSense through three different tests to analyze its blending prowess.
Its max volume was 90dB while blending frozen fruit.
This is 3 decibels louder than the Magimix Blender Power 4 and 2 decibels quieter than the KitchenAid K400.
Immediately it started blending, and meanwhile, the LCD dial pronounced it was sensing.
After a few seconds, this changed to Thick: 84 seconds and counted down from 84 to 0.
After the BlendSenses recommended 84 seconds, I had one of the smoothest smoothies Ive ever drank.
There were no pieces of ice whatsoever, and even the fruit seeds were gone.
Thats something even other impressive blenders (KitchenAid and Magimix) failed to do.
The appetizer hummus
Hummus isnt a challenge in the same way that a smoothie is a challenge.
To blend, I selected BlendSense.
After the standard 15 seconds of thinking, it chose Crush and blended for under a minute.
It didnt even break a sweat.
I didnt have to scrape the sides of the pitcher or shake the blending base.
The Ninja blended inwards, so the hummus blended evenly and did not require a massive amount of cleanup.
I was super impressed with this, and the hummus was delicious.
The challenge peanut butter
Now, Ive never owned a blender that can capably make nut butter.
Ive tried and failed with my Nutribullet, so I was beginning to think it was a me problem.
When we tried to make nut butter with the $649Vitamix A3500, it overheated.
While it still made nut butter eventually, it suffered while doing so.
I poured in around 14 ounces of roasted peanuts and selected BlendSense.
Like the smoothie, it chose Thick and blended for 85 seconds.
I let it run down, then scraped the sides and selected BlendSense again.
It blended for another 85 seconds and I was left with this golden beauty.
Look how gorgeous this texture is.
Its so liquidy and smooth.
The lumps it’s possible for you to see arent peanut lumps, theyre air bubbles.
I cannot describe how utterly delicious this peanut butter was.
It was one of the best peanut butters Ive ever tasted in my life.
I must confess I ate this by the spoonful.
I cut my finger while cleaning them, so dont do what I did.
you’re able to even buy areplacement blender motor basefor $99.
and might also be too big to put away in the average cupboard.
Should you buy the Ninja Detect Power Pro with BlendSense blender?
I cannot believe how affordable the Ninja Detect Power Pro is.
