Have you been researching blenders and still can't decide which one to get?
Then you are gonna love this video! Hi, I'm Tarashaun and for those of you that
don't know me, I'm the founder of BlenderBabes.com.
Your number one resource for blending smoothies and healthy living
and we are back for one of our famous blend off competitions where we put two blenders
against each other to see which one performs better. Today we have the nutribullet Pro and
the Nutri ninja Pro. For this contest we'll be using a healthy greens recipe
that I love and you can find it on BlenderBabes.com.
It's the almond kale green smoothie. Now almonds and kale are extremely
nutritious powerhouses, but they can be really hard for most blenders to handle
so you will really be able to see which one of these blenders can handle these
challenging ingredients. Today we'll be joined by two members of our community
and blender babes that are going to help with the blender testing. We have Jamae. "hi
how are you?" I'm good, thank you, and Kim, "hello". Thank you ladies so much for
joining me today. So, let's get to know them a little bit. So, Jemae do you
drink smoothies? "Not often, occasionally". Do you have a blender at home? "I do have
a blender, but my lifestyle is so active that I really just don't have the time,
but that's why I'm here. I'm so excited to try. Because I want to get
into a more healthier lifestyle especially for myself and my son." Does he
drink smoothies? "He does, he does, yes and he loves them." Awesome, so you need
something that's quick and healthy and on the go. "Yes, yes. Very much on the go". And what about you Kim
are you a smoothie lover? "I love smoothies. I do I make them almost every
day. It's a great replacement meal. I sometimes can't get a full meal in,
so when I can't, I definitely will make a smoothie. And so do you buy them
too when you're out or you always make them at home. "If I'm not gonna get a
chance to make it home I will definitely grab one, but more than often I make them
at home. Yeah especially here in LA, they're like ten bucks.. (chuckles)
"Exactly, at least, right" Awesome! So we're gonna get started! The Nutribullet
Pro is a single serve blender with a 1.2 horsepower at 900 watt motor.
It comes with one extractor blade, a large 32 ounce cup, and a 24 ounce cup as
well as an interchangeable lip ring handled lip ring and flip top lid. It
also includes their life changing recipe book and pocket nutritionist guide. The
Nutri Ninja Pro, is also a single serve blender with a 900 watt motor.
It comes with one extractor blade, a 24 ounce cup, an 18 ounce cup, and two sip
and seal lids. You will also receive a recipe book and wellness guide. Jamae
will be testing the Nutribullet Pro. This is a single serve style blender
that retails brand-new for $99.99. There's no knobs or dials; there's just
one setting which is on. The way it works is by locking it into place and it's
also hands-free. But with the Nutri Ninja, you twist it and lock it into place you
must hold it down to operate. So, it's not hands-free. Alright are you guys ready to
blend? "Let's do it." All right so now we're ready to load up our ingredients and we're gonna
do it in the suggested way from each blender company. So, with the Nutribullet
Pro you're gonna want to start out with your leafy greens. Next you're gonna do
your soft fruits and veggies. Then you're gonna do your liquids. Next are your
boost. So, your nuts, your seeds, protein powders, goji berries, and finally your
frozen fruit and ice. Kim is gonna have the Nutri Ninja
and that one is very similar. It's just that you start with your soft fruits and
veggies. Then your been nuts and seeds. Your liquids and finally your frozen
fruit and ice. All righty guys, ready to blend? "Yes" Okay so we're gonna blend for
60 seconds. ready, set, blend!
Alright! Alright, so first we're gonna start with our taste test. What do you
think Jamae? "This is delicious! It's nice and smooth and silky. I love it!" Do you
think it's something you could drink more often?
"Most definitely, I could do this every day. It will really help with my busy
schedule and help with my son and just make my life way more convenient." You
would take that on the go? "I would!" "For dance class, all those things,
everything" And Kim what about you? How was yours? "So it tastes delicious but I can
taste or I can sense the grits on my teeth and in the back of my throat
and I hate that, so..." So, it's a little bit gritty? "Yes, definitely" Okay So, it sounds
like the Nutribullet Pro did a little bit better, but we're gonna really see
and feel with the smear test. So, you guys are gonna pour a little bit of your
smoothie onto this flat surface.
Alright. So, you guys can kind of see if there's any like little pieces or, or
anything that maybe didn't get blended completely and you can also feel the
consistency. You can even feel each other's if you want us to feel a
difference. So, now we're going to take it a step further with the sieve
test and that's gonna really, really, show you what is left over in this smoothie. So,
with the sieve test you're gonna pour the smoothie through this mesh sieve and
it's basically gonna separate the fibers from the liquid. "That's cool, let's do it!"
So, you kind of have to help it out a little bit. So, you're gonna kind of use
your fingers and just push it through. This is a professional-grade sieve so
it's a very fine mesh sieve. "All sorts of chunks in mine. Yeah you can
definitely see it already. "I see the kale, yeah almonds..." Like I said,
Kale and almonds are two of like the top hardest ingredients to blend. So
a really good blender it's a good way to test it.
Especially because kale is so good for you, it's one of the you know top cancer
fighting foods everybody wants to have kale. You know it's like the superfood of
the year, so if you can't blend kale well... "It's all about being Kalelicious" Kale Yeah! (chuckles)
If you want to feel the difference of each other's. So you can get an idea of what the difference is.
So, I'm just going to kind of show... So, what do you guys think? "I think that
was very smooth. I like that the nuts weren't so choppy and
big and I like that you could drink through the small straw." Give me the Jumbo straw. "So, it
worked, it was fabulous." mm-hmm And what about you, Kim? "Yeah I'm disappointed with
mine. I didn't like the chunks in it, you can obviously see the pieces of kale and
almonds in there and hers is much more smoother." Yes I you like pushing
that thing down. "oh, I had a struggle, yeah" We were gonna help you but you know,
it is a competition. It looked like you were tired at the end. I mean is
that a blender that you would use? "No, not the Ninja, of course not." So, would
you buy this blender Jamae? "Most definitely buy for myself and for some friends." All right,
well I would say the Nutribullet Pro won this blend off. So, these are both similarly
designed blenders and they're also both 900 watts so it's really interesting to
see which would actually performed better with our kale and almond green
smoothie. So, I want to thank you ladies for joining me today. Thank you so much
Jamae. "Thank you for having me. This was a really great time, thank you so much".
You're welcome, and Kim thanks I really appreciate it. "Thank you." All right if you want
