Our Verdict

Ninja Professional Blender NJ601AMZ

Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro

The Ninja Detect Power Blender Pro is better than the Ninja Professional Blender NJ601AMZ. It has a better build quality and blending performance. It makes a smoother blend with fibrous ingredients in less time, so it's better for recipes like smoothies, and it's also easier to use to make thicker recipes like nut butter. Unlike the Professional, its 'BlendSense' mode acts as an automatic blending program that allows the blender to stop on its own when your recipe is done.
