Ninja BN801 Professional Plus Kitchen System Ninja BN601 Professional Plus Food Processor At $180, you're essentially buying two kitchen appliances, each of which can cost hundreds of dollars. Then again, those added attachments are just a tiny nuisance when you consider how much more stuff you would have if you had both a blender and a food processor. It does come with a bunch of attachments, so be sure you have enough space to store everything. Besides its super-loud motor, it's still a worthwhile purchase, especially for those who don't want to buy one or the other. The Foodi Power Blender and Processor System is both a good blender and a good food processor. A few other blender-and-food-processor combos include one from Cuisinart ($188) and Oster ($130), and Ninja itself makes a number of two-in-ones, which can be found on its website. If you're opting for one or the other, a blender is probably more versatile, and no blender has as much clout as Vitamix, which usually start around $300 (and do occasionally go on sale). There are loads of blenders and food processors out there. Most food processors have separate blades and discs, like those for dicing, slicing or shredding, but Ninja's system lacks those, and you'll be more apt at just doing those kitchen tasks manually. Lack of food processor features: While the system comes with a bunch of attachments, it lacks some attachments that are standard when you buy a food processor. However, it's too small to put food into.) Luckily the motor has enough power to chop through everything at once, but if you want to add subsequent ingredients after you've already started blending, you'll have to remove the whole lid, which is frustrating and can get messy. (Though it does have a pour spout for mess-free pouring. The Foodi Power Blender and Processor System has no such opening. There's no turning back: Most blenders and food processors have a small opening in the lid to add ingredients after you've already started blending. I've tried to operate it only during reasonable hours, but if you're itching for a smoothie early in the morning, you might accidentally be your neighbor's wake-up call. The blender only needs to operate at the higher speed settings for brief bursts, but it's still concerning to me how loud it is - so much so that I've worried about neighbors complaining. Even on its lower speed setting it sounds like I'm running a power drill. The Foodi Power Blender and Processor System, however, might be one of the loudest motorized choppers I've ever heard. It's very loud: Blenders and food processors are inherently loud. You can also manually choose between 10 speed settings with the simple turn of a dial. Opting for any of those settings will bring up a timer that lets you know how long until it's done. The appliance comes with its own set of recipes, and it's helpful that it tells you which setting you may want to choose. One-touch control: Ninja's Foodi Power Blender and Processor System has six pre-set Auto-IQ settings - Extract, Smoothie, Bowl, Spread, Chop and Dough - that help you achieve the perfect textures and consistencies for whatever you're wanting. All together this means the one motorized base can make a number of spreads, mixes and beverages. Attachments, attachments, attachments: Besides the Power Pitcher, the appliance comes with a Smoothie Bowl Maker, which is basically like one of those single-serving blenders a Nutrient Extraction Cup, which is like the Smoothie Bowl Maker except with a built-in tamp for scraping the sides down a dough blade to be used in the pitcher and a fixed blade for the Smoothie Bowl Maker and Nutrient Extraction Cup.
