## Frequently asked questions

### Who is the Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701) for?

Buyers who will not spend Vitamix money and want the rational budget full-size: good power for the price, cheap and widely available parts, and a short warranty. It is consistently recommended for exactly that buyer. Buy it knowing the lifespan trade. If you want a blender for a decade, save up for the Vitamix Explorian E310 instead.

### How long does the Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701) last?

Shorter than the premium brands, with a 1-year warranty. Plan on a few years of regular use rather than a decade. Because parts are inexpensive and widely available, a worn blade assembly does not have to end its life.

### Are parts for the Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701) easy to find?

Yes. Widely available, inexpensive parts are one of the three reasons our board ranks it as the rational budget pick. Pitchers, lids and blade assemblies are easy to replace, which matters more on a 1-year-warranty machine than on a Vitamix.

### Should I buy the Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701) or the Chefman Obliterator (RJ27-T1-TJ)?

The Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701). They cost similar money, but the Chefman Obliterator (RJ27-T1-TJ) leads with wattage marketing over substance, has no durability track record and a weak support reputation. The BN701 is a known quantity with cheap parts, which is why it is B tier and the Chefman is D tier on our board. The Oster Pro 1200 is the other defensible budget option if you want a glass jar and a metal drive.

### How do you clean the Ninja Professional Plus Blender Duo (BN701)?

Rinse the pitcher and the stacked blade assembly straight after use, handling the blade stack by its shaft since the blades are exposed. Wash with warm soapy water or run warm water with a drop of soap for 30 seconds. Wipe the base with a damp cloth and never submerge it.

## What this tier means

- B: Good. A solid choice with real caveats worth knowing.

## How to read this

- Each category is researched in four independent runs, one per lens (expert consensus, value, reliability, community pulse). Every run ranks a board of candidates that deliberately includes products buyers cross-shop but should avoid. Placements score on a ranked ladder (LP), and tiers are derived from LP, so no tier is ever assigned by hand.
- LP is this product's points on its own category ladder. It is comparable within a category and not across categories.
- Link status reports what our pre-publication link check found when it fetched the cited URL. It says nothing about the quality of the review.
- A citation with no usable link is listed rather than dropped, and is excluded from the counted total above.
