The blades are a separate attachment. Be careful.

The jars twist into place easily.

You can put Sip & Seal lids on the same container you used for blending and run out the door with it.

The two jars, the blade attachment, and the portable lids make a nice combo.

It even has the power to handle some of our stress tests. This was an 8-ounce block of cheddar.

It couldn't handle all stress tests. It had trouble with these almonds, and struggles with dry blending in general.

Still, the Nutri Ninja makes a good, quick smoothie that you can take on the run.
