La Reveuse vs Ninja Nutri Auto-iQ Personal Blender Side-by-Side Comparison

By , , and ·Updated
La Reveuse vs Ninja Nutri Auto-iQ Personal Blender

Overall Verdict

The La Reveuse provides decent performance for simple, everyday tasks, especially those involving fresh, plant-based ingredients. However, it does fall short when handling tougher items such as raw nuts, leafy greens, and dried fruits.

In contrast, the Ninja BL480D Nutri delivered consistently smooth blends across a variety of tasks. From green smoothies and frozen mixtures to protein shakes, its performance is top-notch. Its robust 1000-watt motor even enables it to effortlessly pulverize ice into a snow-like consistency, a feat that the La Reveuse cannot achieve. The Ninja BL480D Nutri also stands out with its more solid build, appealing aesthetic, and advanced Auto-iQ technology.

To sum up, for those who prefer a compact, no-frills blender for basic tasks, the La Reveuse is a fitting choice. However, if you need a blender that can tackle a broad array of tasks with ease, the Ninja BL480D Nutri warrants consideration. Just be aware of the additional $70.
