Ninja Mega Kitchen System BL770 Review — 1500W Blender with 8‑Cup Food Processor
A hands-on, detailed review of the Ninja Mega Kitchen System (BL770) covering performance, features, build, cleaning, and who should buy it. This review focuses on the appliance’s capabilities—no customer reviews or pricing information included.
Quick overview
The Ninja BL770 Mega Kitchen System combines a powerful 1500‑watt motor with a large 72‑oz (64‑oz usable) Total Crushing pitcher, an 8‑cup food processor, dough blade, and two 16‑oz Nutri Ninja cups for single‑serve drinks. Designed for heavy‑duty blending, ice crushing, food prep, and on‑the‑go shakes.
Top feature Total Crushing technology for ice-to-snow crushing and consistent large-batch blending.
Performance and real-world use
The 1500‑watt (roughly 2 horsepower) motor delivers quick, consistent results whether you’re crushing ice for smoothies, pureeing soups, or mixing dough in the processor bowl. The Total Crushing blades turn ice into snow in seconds and maintain texture consistency when blending frozen fruit—ideal for smoothies and frozen cocktails. The dedicated dough blade in the 8‑cup processor mixes up to 2 lbs of dough quickly and evenly.
Blending & ice crushing
Expect smooth purées and fine ice crush for most household tasks. Larger or extremely fibrous batches (e.g., very thick nut butters) may require short pulse cycles and occasional scraping, but the unit’s raw power minimizes long runtimes.
Food processing & dough
The 8‑cup processor is useful for chopping, pureeing, and dough mixing. The processor chopping blade gives uniform results for vegetables and nuts; the dough blade handles bread and pizza dough efficiently for small to medium batches.
Single-serve convenience
Two 16‑oz Nutri Ninja cups with to‑go lids let you make personalized shakes quickly. The Pro Extractor blades are optimized for single‑serve nutrient extraction and make it simple to blend directly into travel cups.

Practical tips for best results
- For the smoothest texture, add liquids first, then soft ingredients, then frozen items or ice last.
- When crushing ice or frozen fruit, use short pulses initially to break up large chunks, then blend continuously to refine texture.
- Don’t overfill the pitcher beyond the 64‑oz fill line — the 72‑oz number reflects total physical capacity, not recommended liquid fill.
- To avoid overheating, give the motor short rests after extended heavy use (more than a minute of continuous high‑load blending).
- Always secure lids and blade assemblies correctly before starting, and remove blades carefully for cleaning.
