A Vitamix costs about three times as much as a good Ninja. The question is whether you will notice the difference.

We compared them on Amazon UK, using price, rating and number of reviews. We haven't tested them ourselves. This comparison is based on the Amazon listings and customer ratings, so check the latest price and details before you buy.

Our take: ratings on Amazon UK do not show a clear advantage for the more expensive blenders. If you blend hard or fibrous foods every day, a Vitamix may still last longer, but this data cannot show that.

Short answer: Usually not. The Ninja 2-in-1 (around £133) is rated 4.7 from more than 5,000 buyers, and the NutriBullet 900 (around £80) is rated 4.6 from more than 7,000. The Vitamix Explorian E310 costs around £425, with a 4.6 rating from about 50 buyers. Prices and ratings are from Amazon UK, checked when our catalogue was last updated.
