Our Verdict

Ninja Mega Kitchen System [BL770, BL770AMZ, BL771]

Vitamix A3500

The Vitamix A3500 is better than the Ninja Mega Kitchen System. The Vitamix is sturdier and does a better job of processing fibrous ingredients and making nut butter. It has more speed settings and comes with a 2-part lid and tamper. You can use it for hot blending, and it's easier to clean by hand. That said, the Ninja is equally fantastic at crushing ice, and its jar is a bit bigger.
