Does anyone try to blend carrot in the Nutribullet? Please let me know whether this machine works well with carrot.

I blend baby carrots with apples and works very well, you just have to make sure you water up to the max line on side of glass...........

I have an older vita-mix. I know there has been some debate between blending and juicing. I think juicing is the way to go. I rather have veggie juice than anything made in the vita-mix.

I have never had a problem with "mixing" it, although I've only done it in a blender with fruits, and not just shaken it up manually. The taste is fine. Sorry but I did not read any of the reviews you refer to. Vanilla is an option if you're concerned about liking the unflavored one.

I have been using this for years and not had the problem. I put the milk in my blender and then the Spirutein. Run it till smooth and then add the ice. Works every time.

I cup of water, two scoops of the power, whey protein, coconut oil, frozen blueberries (or whatever other fruit/veg you like), some cinnamon. I highly recommend investing in one of the "bullet" type blenders. I tried the first few days with a regular blender and cleanup was just too much. Once I got my "bullet," everything was super easy!

I replaced my Nutribullet with the Ninja....and I'm glad I did. It's very powerful, liquefies in seconds. The nutri billet would often leave me with chunks of unprocessed bits of carrot and ice. Very happy with the ninja. And for the price....I believe it's a way better value. Hope this helps :)

Great. No problem getting first rate carrot juice. Try it with some ground up ginger

I had a Nutri Bullet. Loved it, even though it did not go through the sieve as in David Wolfe infomercial. Read reviews & bought this Nutri Ninja. Noisy like a Mac truck and wicked Freddy blades. It was not much better than the Bullet. I had to chew my smoothies - gritty cacao, nuts, seeds, chunks of ice, and soft goji & peach globs. I had to grind the cacao and seeds in my coffee grinder first. Bummer because the cacao powder sticks. It also leaked a few times, even though I tightened the lid. Somehow it went on crooked tight. Got splattered a couple of times when I opened the lid. Based on your great comments, I exchanged this to BBB for another one. Duh, do you think I got a dud? I had a Nutri Bullet.

The Nutribullet does not extract juice from the fruit or vegetable. It "blends" them with water to make a, yes, smoothie. So it makes a rather thick, pulpy kind of juice. But, it is sure a great way to get fresh vitamins, nutrients, and fiber into your diet and you can make foods you never could stomach before, palatable and fun to drink.Bert

I make smoothies in my Ninja with Almond or Coconut Milk and fruit. I put the whey in after putting in the liquid and stir it up before adding fruit and haven't had any problems.

I am obsessed with the chocolate greens and have been using them for years. I have a few favorites. In my nutribullet I out the greens water and banana with peanut butter. It's quite delicious. If you want it thicker, add more banana or less water. Coconut and almond milk work well also. Another favorite is the greens with pineapple. There is something about the combo that is delicious. Again, add more fruit or less liquid as desired. This only works really well in the nutribullet because it liquifies and pulverizes everything. An "amazing" blend indeed. Enjoy

I have really good luck with it. I snip off the carrot bottoms (just that nubby thingy), break the carrots usually in half, and pulse stopo pulse stop pulse until they are as large or small as I want. The more you pulse, the smaller they become. I'm in love with this chopper. Got it in May 2013, reviewed it here somewhere around then.

I have both Nutribullet and Vitamix. I've also had a dedicated juicer which I gave away...too much trouble. Anyway, Nutribullet works almost as well as Vitamix without having to take up so much counterspace. Also I believe the "juices" taste better when you keep the fiber in. Way more filling. Admittedly I can't give you any advice about the Ninja but I do believe you can't go wrong with Nutribullet.

Carrots were no problem, but I wouldn't go beyond. Actually, I wouldn't bother buying at all. I broke mine on a butternut squash rendering it useless.

Hi Ruth,yes the champion juicer works very well also with vegetables! I make daily my carrot juice and it taste very good. Herbs and spinach, cabbage, broccoli is also good. You only get a little bit juice out of it, but the most important ones.Enjoy,Gabriele

Shirley,I have not tried it with carrots but it has done a great job with apples, pineapples, strawberries, Kale and other veggies I have used. I love it.
