The Pro 900 is a compact 900-watt personal blender with twist-on cups. The referenced current bundle includes two 32-ounce cups and to-go lids.

Before you choose

FB067 / THE SHORTLIST

Ninja Professional Plus (BN701)

Large cold-drink batches

The BN701 has Auto-iQ presets and a 72-ounce pitcher. Ninja distinguishes total pitcher size from its maximum liquid capacity.

Before you choose

Check the liquid fill line and handle the removable stacked blades carefully. This is the BN701 pitcher model, not a DUO or kitchen-system bundle.

Breville Super Q (BBL920)

Jug and personal-cup flexibility

The Super Q includes a 68-ounce jug and a separate personal-blending attachment. Its base recognizes the vessel and adjusts its operation.

Before you choose

The optional Vac Q pump is a separate accessory. Check storage space and bundle contents, and do not equate motor wattage alone with blending quality.

Vitamix Explorian E31004

FB069 / THE SHORTLIST

Vitamix Explorian E310

Medium-size batches

Vitamix supplies the E310 with a 48-ounce container intended for medium batches. It is worth comparing if a larger jug would be unnecessary for your everyday recipes.

Before you choose

Confirm the exact container and warranty for new versus reconditioned units. E310 and other Explorian models can have different containers or controls.

Vitamix Ascent X5 (48oz, brushed stainless)05

FB070 / THE SHORTLIST

Vitamix Ascent X5 (48oz, brushed stainless)

Preset programs with manual control

The Ascent X5 pairs ten preset programs with variable speed and pulse control. The selected brushed-stainless package includes a 48oz container and a self-cleaning program.

Before you choose

This replaces A3500. The included 48oz container is a different capacity from many A3500 bundles; verify SELF-DETECT accessory compatibility and counter clearance before buying.

Make the final call.

Follow temperature and fill limits in the manual. Motor wattage alone does not predict the texture of every recipe, and accessory compatibility varies.
