NutriBullet Pro 900 S vs NutriBullet Rx Comparison

NutriBullet Pro 900 S vs NutriBullet Rx

Price:
  • The NutriBullet Rx will cost about $80 more than the NutriBullet 900, totaling to a bit less than $200. What will you get for the extra money? A more powerful motor, larger blending cups, the ability to blend hot soups, and the latest of technology from the NutriBullet Company.
Power:
  • 1700 Watts vs 900 Watts, the difference between these blenders seems large. However, the power difference is not as great the power would seem. While the NutriBullet Rx may have twice the amount of power as the NutriBullet 900, it fails to work twice as well at blending. No doubt the NutriBullet Rx is more powerful, but its flawed blade design makes for a blending near equal to the NutriBullet 900.
Design:
  • Essentially, imagine the NutriBullet Rx as just a larger version of the NutriBullet 900. One nice little addition of the NutriBullet Rx is an inclusion of a large blending cup. Unfortunately design flaws plague both blenders. For the NutriBullet 900, an infamous press release by ConsumerReports showed the possibility of blender blades breaking. The NutriBullet Rx may have even more serious problems. Be sure to take all of this into account before making a purchase.
Best for Whom?:
  • NutriBullet Pro 900 S: 1. Morning Smoothie Makers. If you need to make smoothies in the morning quickly and efficiently, the NutriBullet 900 is a respectable choice. 2. Mid-Range Blender Needs. At less than $130, the NutriBullet 900 won't drain your wallet entirely while upgrading.
  • NutriBullet Rx: 1. Lovers of the NutriBullet Blenders. If you have loved all the NutriBullets and MagicBullets in the past, the NutriBullet Rx delivers many commonly requested features. 2. Under $200 Purchase. 1700 Watts of power for less than $200 is a rare deal to find.
Overall:
  • If all you're looking for is a blender to make smoothies in on-the-go blending cups, go with the NutriBullet Pro 900 S. Costing less money and delivering similar results, the NutriBullet 900 makes for a solid choice in the kitchen if you consider its limitations. The NutriBullet Rx may offer plenty of power, but it fails to live up to the hype.

  2. Nutribullet rx numerous issues: gasket leaked, always coming out, hard to reseat. Finally the cross blade and the 45 oz plastic jar froze together, could not separate, replacement parts $40 from the nutribullet website. Would not buy again, spend money for vita mix, far superior.
