Our Verdict

Ninja Foodi Cold & Hot Blender

Vitamix 5200

The Vitamix 5200 is better than the Ninja Foodi Cold & Hot Blender. The Vitamix has a better build quality and is easier to clean by hand. It makes a smoother blend with fibrous ingredients like kale and does a much better job of processing hard food like nuts. On the other hand, the Ninja is a better ice crusher. Unlike the Vitamix, it has automatic blending programs, and some may prefer that its main jar is made of glass.
