Despite the difference in power, we found both blenders processed most recipes in a similar amount of time. Their version of a personal blender-the Nutri Ninja-is priced around $60, which is a bit more expensive than the Magic Bullet, but it has a larger, more-powerful 900-watt motor compared to Magic Bullet’s 250-watt motor.
The Ninja brand is known for their line of expensive, high-speed blenders.
How does the Magic Bullet perform compared to the NutriNinja? Quite well, it turns out. The Spruce Eats / Sharon Lehman MagicBullet vs. Frozen ingredients, like fruit, blended easier, but mostly when left to thaw a few minutes at room temperature beforehand. Again, not ideal if you use a lot of ice in your beverages or are expecting to whip up frozen cocktails with even consistency. In our test, a half-cup of ice cubes were partially crushed, but mostly left intact and spinning around the cup. It’s best to underfill-just slightly-so liquid doesn’t leak into the motor and cause damage.Īnother issue: the Magic Bullet doesn’t handle ice well. We were only able to fit about five strawberries and a very small handful of spinach before we felt like we were overfilling the 18-ounce blender cup. Of course, this also means you’ll have less room for fruits and greens. The more liquid you use, the easier your drink will blend. You just can’t fit that much in the cups-which is a con for anyone who enjoys produce-packed smoothies. The other issue we came across was the blender’s limited capacity. This isn’t a big deal if you don’t mind a little grit, but there are other blenders that can better produce velvety smoothies. Our smoothies had visible specks and some small, chewable pieces of fruits and veggies. The Magic Bullet thoroughly blended our smoothie ingredients, but the texture wasn’t as smooth as we would have liked. It offers enough power to quickly blend most soft fruits, like bananas and berries, and did a decent job blending leafy greens like spinach. The Magic Bullet does its best work with smoothies, protein powders, and other non-frozen ingredients. The manufacturer claims it can do any job in 10 seconds or less-but that’s a bit of an exaggeration. Our smoothies weren’t as plentiful or smooth as we normally prefer, but we were impressed with how fast the Magic Bullet worked. The Magic Bullet does its best work with smoothies, protein powders, and other non-frozen drinks.
