I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.
Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.
Anything else like that?

Using a Ninja and thinking it’s a good blender. I’m so sorry you missed out on the Vitamix experience.
(｡•́︿•̀｡)
I have a ninja professional and my brother has a Vitamix. Yes, his is a little quieter and nicer feeling, but it is nowhere near $500 better.
I’ve used industrial vitamix blenders at work and I have a Ninja at home. Unless you’re making smoothies every single day there’s absolutely no reason to pay 400 bucks for a vitamix. A ninja will suit the average person who needs a blender / food processor almost every time.
Tl;Dr: If you’re cool with buying a Lexus to drive 5 miles to work every day instead of a Toyota then get a vitamix.
The quality of your blending experience can determine how frequently you are motivated to blend things. I’m currently living at a place where the only blender is a Ninja, and I never want to blend anything, because I just don’t want to deal with that hassle. When I had my Vitamix - the lowest-end $250 refurbished model - I did make smoothies at least twice a week.
That’s not to speak of the fact that some things, like making nut butters, are simply infeasible on a lower quality blender.
They all look like bottom blade only things, whereas my ninja has 3 blades throughout.
Me and bottom only blades are not friends.
Plus I just looked at the price. I also have a Ninja - $90. Vitamix - $600. I’d have to be blending a whole lot to shell out that much, but I’m not, so I didn’t. The Ninja works great and is the best blender I’ve used so far, so I don’t see a reason to upgrade. Use what works for you!
Baby steps.
