Product Information

Adding dates (without stones) or dried apricots to a smoothie not only sweetens the mixture but adds fibre too. Next, I made a smoothie. First, I took some coconut flakes and attempted to grind them to see how well the CN100UK copes with dry ingredients. In short, not very well. The high speed of the motor tends to throw the bits into the air, giving uneven results. If you need to grind spices or work with dry ingredients, this isn’t the blender for you.

Treating yourself to a high-performance blender is a surefire way to ensure you include more healthy shakes and smoothies in your life. A good appliance can whizz up all manner of fruit and veg, from antioxidant-rich berries to convenient frozen fruit and fibre-rich leafy greens, with the best of the blending bunch delivering a perfectly smooth fitness drink, free from off-putting fibres or unpleasant grainy textures.The blender has a powerful 1,100W smart torque motor and claims to be able to churn through fruits, nuts and even ice. Chill smoothie/yogurt serving bowl in freezer first for a few minutes, helps to keep everything cool whilst you eat. As with recent Ninja blenders, the base comes with Auto IQ programmes, to take the guesswork out of blending. There are auto settings for Blend, Crush, Mix and PowerMix; the handy manual offers a guide on when to use each mode. There’s a basic Start/Stop control and a Pulse option, too. With a powerful 1100W motor, this easy to use blender can deal with just about everything – but it’s super loud. Ninja Foodi Power Nutri Blender 2-in-1 with Smart Torque & Auto-iQ CB100UK design and features – It comes sporting a neat and compact design

Available in a sleek, stylish silver finish, this Ninja blender will look great in any kitchen. All parts are dishwasher safe, so cleaning up is easy, and the anti-slip feet stop the appliance from moving during use. Plus, there’s an inspiration guide included in the box to help you get started. If you’ve seen a recent Ninja blender, then you won’t find the CB100UK a million miles away. The main unit is the powered motor base, into which you clip the provided accessories. For this model, there’s a 1100W motor, down from the 1200W motor in the BN750UK. As you’ll see later, this doesn’t make much difference in practice – the less powerful motor is fine since you’ll only ever be working with smaller volumes of food. While budget blenders can handle soft fruits and liquids fine, it often pays to spend a bit more knowing that your new blender will be able to work its way through tougher ingredients like hard veg or even – for the top models – ice cubes. To be fair, this product isn’t really designed for that job. Adding to the coconut flakes, I put in pineapple chunks (including the core), mint leaves, yoghurt and coconut milk. Using the Blend option, I ended up with a perfect smoothie, with no large chunks left and the mint and coconut spread evenly through the mix. Don’t throw away that ripe banana, cut into slices and freeze for smoothies and shakes, the ripeness will add natural sweetness too.Forget about having to scrape down the sides or manually mix your concoctions up, because the Ninja blender has a clever “pull-down” mechanism, and will choose to pulse the mix instead of going full throttle. This ensures even, perfectly blended results, from the top to the bottom of the blending cup. Although all of the components – bar the blades – are plastic, they feel tough. Plus, they’re all dishwasher-safe, which makes cleaning up at the end of a session a cinch. Ninja Foodi Power Nutri Blender 2-in-1 with Smart Torque & Auto-iQ CB100UK performance – Makes short work of everything but it’s loud In the box, Ninja has provided its robust single-serve cup, which holds up to 700ml of liquid. This has both a blade assembly and, when you’re finished mixing, a travel lid that you can screw on and drink out of. The CB100UK also features Auto-IQ technology. Exclusive to Ninja, these intelligent programmes are tailored to deliver the perfect results at the touch of a button. Four unique pulse, pause and blend patterns do all the hard work for you. Choose from Blend, Crush, Mix and PowerMix for complete cooking flexibility.
