What Makes It Stand Out

NutriBullet essentially created the personal blender category. The NBR-0601WM is the current iteration of that original formula: a compact base, an extractor blade, and a cup that converts into a travel mug. Strong feedback from a very large number of buyers is not the result of marketing -- it reflects a product that consistently works as described.

The 24-oz cup is a meaningful advantage over the Ninja Fit's 16-oz cup. For anyone making a full smoothie with spinach, protein powder, fruit, and liquid, the extra 8 ounces matters for fitting all the ingredients without overfilling.

Value

The NutriBullet typically prices close to the Ninja Fit, making the decision between them a matter of cup size preference. If you want a bigger cup, the NutriBullet wins. If you want more motor power for heavy frozen ingredients and two cups included, the Ninja Fit wins.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Strong feedback from a very large buyer base -- proven reliability at scale
  • 24-oz cup gives more volume per blend than 16-oz competitors
  • Extractor blade design pulls more nutrients from whole fruits and vegetables
  • Simple twist-on operation is fast and intuitive

Cons

  • 600 watts is slightly less than the Ninja Fit for frozen ingredient crushing
  • Only one cup included at base price
  • Blade assembly requires care in cleaning

Bottom Line

Buy the NutriBullet NBR-0601WM if you want a larger cup than the Ninja Fit or you prefer the iconic extractor blade design that started the personal blender category.
