Vitamix vesus NutriBullet Pro 900 Series

Can this comparison actually exist? Top of the line blenders produced by the Vitamix company versus the lowly NutriBullet? Shouldn't this be a one sided fight?

Nope, there are positives and negatives for each blender series.

NutriBullet 900

Pros:

  • Far more affordable. The NutriBullet 900 S only costs $150. Previous NutriBullet models are even cheaper.
  • Takes up less space on the counter top. A NutriBullet has a small footprint compared to the Vitamix.
  • Quicker and easier to clean. 
  • Makes single servings and small batches of blended items far more easily. 
  • NutriBullet 900 S will blend fruit well.
  • Works well as a food processor.
Cons:
  • Blade in blender definitely seems of lesser quality than Vitamix.
  • Warranty is much shorter.
  • If you ever want to blend a large quantity of something at a time, you will need to devise some kind of logistics system to do so.
  • There are limits to the power of the NutriBullet.
  • Not great when trying to make nut butters

Vitamix 

Pros:

  • Super powerful. Vitamix blenders are one of the most powerful brands on the market.
  •  Industrial design. Looks like something that truly came out of a factory (this is a good thing).
  • Large holding capacity in blender. If you ever need to blend a lot of something at one time, the Vitamix offers 48oz size and 64oz size blending containers.
  • Great at milling any hard seeds you are trying to make a flour out of. You will need a milling/dry blender.
  • 7 Year Warranty on Vitamix blenders.
  • Possible to make hot soup in the Vitamix.
 Cons:
  • High price. Most new Vitamix blenders will cost at least $400.
  • Not great when trying to make single servings of items.
  • Clean up can be annoying due to a large blender space.
  • Takes up a decent amount of space in the kitchen.
  • Louder than the NutriBullet.

Conclusions

For anyone that is new into blending, I would recommend the NutriBullet. For any experienced blending fiends out there, definitely look into Vitamix blender models.
