Should you buy the Blendtec Designer 725 or the Ninja Professional BL610?

Both are strong picks in the blenders category. Here's how to decide:

Get the Blendtec Designer 725 if...

Wildside jar shape moves ingredients differently than Vitamix, making silky smoothies with less liquid.

Six blades stacked in a column crush ice like nothing else at this price. Two liter jar means fewer refills.
