Our Verdict

Ninja Professional Blender 1000

Ninja SMOOTHIEiQ

The Ninja Professional Blender 1000 and Ninja SMOOTHIEiQ are very similar. They both excel at crushing ice and struggle with smoothly blending fibrous ingredients. The SMOOTHIEiQ is a bit better overall since it has an automatic 'Smoothie' blending program that shuts off the blender automatically at the end.
