NutriBullet has become the main name in blenders, known for quickly turning out smooth, well-blended smoothies while being easy to use and clean. They’re also easy to clean and each one comes with a sleek, modern design. Though known mainly for making smoothies and smoothie bowls, they have more versatility than many people realize. You can easily use your NutriBullet blender to make other items like juices, soup, sauce, and even whipped cream.

What to Consider in a NutriBullet Blender

Here are the things you should look into when purchasing a NutriBullet:

• Size: Blenders tend to come in sizes large and small, and NutriBullet blenders are no exception. You’ll want to buy a smaller blender for more personal use or a larger one for a full-sized household. Some kits come with multiple cups so you can switch the blender cup’s size in and out based on your needs.
• Power: The higher a blender’s wattage, the more powerful a punch it will pack. 700 to 900 watts tends to be standard for most NutriBullet blenders. If you’re someone who blends large quantities of fruits and vegetables at a time or packs their blender with ice, you’ll want to buy a NutriBullet blender that runs at 1,000 watts or higher.
• Price: Like many kitchen appliances, NutriBullet blenders come in a wide range of prices depending on factors like extra features, size, and power, among others. If you plan to use your NutriBullet blender on a regular or daily basis, a more premium option with multiple functions, or even a kit, might be the wiser investment.

Best Kit: NutriBullet Pro Blender System

For smoothie enthusiasts, a kit rather than a blender by itself might be the way to go. This NutriBullet blender system includes the standard blender pieces, a 900-watt motor base, two 32-ounce cups, and an extractor blade, as well as two lids, four lip rings (two with handles), and a recipe book. The blender cup doubles as an on-the-go tumbler; simply blend your ingredients together, remove the blade, slide on a lip ring and lid, and you’re all set. It’s great for shakes and nut butters as well as smoothies. The extractor blade is stainless steel with cyclonic action to break down even hardy ingredients like nuts and seeds, firm fruits like apples and apricots, and dense leafy greens like kale. The plastic cups are BPA-free and durable, sure to give you long-term usage. It’s dishwasher safe (top rack only) for your convenience.

Most Powerful: NutriBullet ZNBF30400Z Blender

This is a powerful and dishwasher-friendly blender that packs a punch. At 1,200 watts, three precision speeds, and a pulse function, this blender is able to smoothly blend together any ingredients or recipe in your arsenal, from smoothies to sauces to nut butters and beyond. The 64-ounce (8-cup) pitcher has plenty of room for a high quantity of fruits and vegetables, with a removable lid. The vented lid cap allows the pitcher to handle blending and holding hot foods like soups and sauces. A tamper and recipe book also come included. Made of stainless steel and BPA-free plastic, this blender is designed to be durable and to perform well.

Best Design: NutriBullet Select Personal Blender

This sleek and modern-looking blender has a design that will look great in anyone’s kitchen. The compact size prevents it from looking bulky and taking up space, with a pitcher capable of holding up to 32 ounces (4 cups). Despite its slim size, this blender does not sacrifice power for compactness, powered with a 1,000-watt motor. The extractor blade twists on easily and is equipped with a newly designed grip that prevents leaks and a tighter seal than ever. The vented pitcher gives you the option to blend hot ingredients together safely. The two speeds and a pulse option give you easy control to blend at your preferred speed.

Best for Multiple Servings: NutriBullet Blender Pitcher

This clear, sturdy plastic blender pitcher can hold up to 56 ounces (7 cups) allowing you to make large quantities and multiple servings of your favorite smoothies, milkshakes, sauces, and more. Measurements are clearly marked on the side of the pitchers, in ounces and cups, for your measuring convenience. A tamper, pitcher lid, and pitcher clear cap come included with the pitcher itself—the blender base is sold separately. The vented lid is perfect for hot ingredients, and the tamper helps you to push your produce down toward the blade to give you more room for your components. It’s compatible with the NutriBullet Blender and Blender Combo.
