Ninja BN701C Professional Plus Blender, 72 oz Pitcher, Auto-iQ, 1400 Peak Watts

For smoothies before work or frozen drinks for a family get-together, the Ninja BN701C Professional Plus Blender brings a large pitcher and preset blending programs to the kitchen counter.

Its 1400-peak-watt motor and Total Crushing blade assembly are designed to crush ice for smoothies, frozen drinks and ice cream. The full-size pitcher holds 72 oz total, with a 64 oz maximum liquid capacity for blending larger batches.

Three Auto-iQ presets handle smoothies, frozen drinks and ice cream with one-touch controls. Choose a preset for a guided blending cycle, or use the three speeds for more direct control over everyday blending.

Everyday use

Make a batch of smoothies for breakfast, blend fruit and ice for frozen drinks, or prepare ice cream with the dedicated preset. The generous pitcher capacity is useful when you’re making drinks for more than one person, while its clearly defined maximum liquid capacity helps guide how much liquid to add. For smaller or more hands-on blending tasks, the three speed settings offer an alternative to selecting a preset.

The Auto-iQ programs are a practical choice when you want a ready-made cycle for a specific task rather than managing every blending step yourself. After serving, the pitcher and blades are dishwasher-safe, making cleanup part of the routine easier to manage.

Strengths

The BN701C combines a large-batch pitcher with presets aimed at familiar kitchen jobs, so it can move from a morning smoothie to a frozen drink without changing appliances. Its Total Crushing blades and 1400-peak-watt motor are specified for crushing ice, while the ice cream program gives that task its own setting. The six-blade assembly is designed to work across the pitcher for blending ingredients and crushing ice.

Compared with a blender that relies only on manual speed selection, Auto-iQ adds ready-to-use cycles for three specific preparations. That makes the preset approach useful when you want a straightforward starting point, the speed settings remain available when you prefer to control the blend more directly. Buyers commonly praise blending performance and ease of use, and some also appreciate how simple it is to clean. Feedback is mixed on noise and pitcher durability, so those experiences vary.

Before you decide

How much can the pitcher hold? The pitcher has a 72 oz total capacity and a 64 oz maximum liquid capacity. Use the liquid limit when preparing drinks or other liquid blends.

Which Auto-iQ programs does it have? The three presets are for smoothies, frozen drinks and ice cream. Each is selected with a button, giving you a task-specific cycle without manually setting each step.

What parts can go in the dishwasher? The pitcher and blender blades are dishwasher-safe, which can simplify cleanup after blending.

Is it worth it?

Choose the Ninja BN701C if your regular kitchen routine includes large batches, ice-based drinks or smoothies, and you value having dedicated presets for those jobs. Its combination of a 72 oz pitcher, ice-crushing blade assembly and three Auto-iQ programs makes it suited to households that want one countertop blender for both everyday smoothies and frozen treats.
