The Ninja Detect power blender pro is a sleek blender that has such power and awesome technological features! The key word in the name of the machine is “detect” and it does just that! It changes the torque and power behind the blend based on what you put inside. It can distinguish between frozen and fresh ingredients, ice, and even the amount of ingredients that you put into it. It adjusts the time, speed, and power based on the contents in the pitcher (not like your average blender that has maybe 3 or 4 options only). I can make smoothies, chop up salsas, and make different sauces and dips using the same machine making it so convenient! It has a large 72oz pitcher. The only thing I wish it had were smoothie cups, but that is a small comment. I definitely recommend!
