My all time favorite is the VitaMix and have owned since 1978! However unless you have the space a small blender is more practical. I tried a Magic Bullet but it did not seem powerful enough. Last spring we got a Nutribullet and it is used almost daily for smoothies and tonight for salad dressing. There are others too including one which will adapt to a mason jar. Do you love the blender you have? Which do you use and what is your favorite use?

My blender is probably not as strong as the bullets, but I love it - and the price was way, way less. I use the Hamilton Beach personal blender - have been using it for 8 years now, and it gets close to daily use - make one to two smoothies some days now (almost always for breakfast, sometimes another later in the day). And it's plenty strong enough for my fruits and veggies.

I also have the Vitamix. It was one of my "must haves" in my rig. It stores in the cabinet below my sink where it is easy to access. If I only used it for smoothies, I could have settled for something less powerful but I need its power. Love it!

Non cook here, so I don't need a do everything blender. I still have hope that I will make more nutritious things. I moved up to the NutiBullet also because it has the power to blend up more of the greens and frozen fruits with less additional water or milk added....

don't have one so will enjoy reading what you all are using have a friend that uses a NINJA (the smaller one)

I have the Bullet but rarely use it as it just doesn't have the power and I got tired of stopping to scrap the food back towards the blades. I then got a Ninja which can make fluffy powdered snow from ice cubes, but still can't pulverize veggies smooth enough for green smoothies.

After 20 yrs of longing for the expensive VitaMix I finally purchased one. I love it and use it often. So easy to throw in all the fresh ingredients, flip it on for 6 mins and have hot steaming soup. The blades spin at 240 revs a second! I make my own protein bars with raw nuts, cacao nibs and dried fruit.

Like everything, it's a matter of having the right tool for getting the job done right. And in my case, with little effort.
