Our Verdict

Ninja DUO

Ninja Professional Plus Blender with Auto-iQ

The Ninja DUO is a better full-size blender than the Ninja Professional Plus Blender with Auto-iQ. The DUO does better in processing fibrous ingredients in its main jar and 20-ounce personal jars. It has a different blade design from most Ninja blenders, making it easier to clean by hand. On the other hand, the Professional Plus is a little better for crushing ice and much quieter when it's running.
