Blending them was very loud but only took just over a minute. Its performance was also good – our smoothies only had small flecks of spinach and berries remaining and had a bright, vivid colour. What we especially liked about the Smart Screen Blender was its sleek buttonless control panel: it was easy to wipe it clean, with nowhere for mess to hide, and when the machine was off, it was completely blank. You can also blend smoothies directly in a pair of on-the-go cups using a screw-in blade tool, and there are high, low and pulse speed options. Concealed within the base unit is an 1100W motor, which gives the stacked six-blade assembly of the jug enough power for its smoothie, purée, frozen drink or ice cream programmes.
It’s not just the vacuum pump that makes this a good buy for smoothie fans either. And, unlike some vacuum-compatible blenders, Ninja’s Smart Screen Blender comes with the pump and enough batteries to run it. The other benefit of using a vacuum is better colour retention (so the green doesn’t turn to sludge brown as quickly). This incorporates fewer bubbles in the process, so you can pour out a silky-smooth beverage. Enter the vacuum pump – designed to suck the air out of the jug or cups before the high-speed action begins. Powerful blenders can turn tough fruit and veg into yummy smoothies but all that whizzing makes for a foamy drink.
