Nutribullet Rx
Nutribullet Rx claims to be the most advanced Nutribullet till date and is more efficient than other blenders in this range. It asserts that it can break down whole foods into their most easily digestible forms so that they can be absorbed into your system without any difficulty. It has been pre-programmed for hands free extraction of foods and doesn’t have an on/off setting, no speed adjustments, time settings or plungers. The SMART technology it uses means it works at exactly the right RPM, stops at the right interval for exactly the right amount of time. Clean-up is a breeze too. Nutribullet Rx takes the original extraction power of the Nutribullet series to another level. Driven by 2.3 horsepower motor it extracts and unlocks nutrients from any fruits and vegetables instantly without leaving behind any chunks, seeds or stems.

Compare Complaints and Reviews Vitamix S55 Blender vs Nutribullet vs Nutribullet Rx vs Nutribullet Pro 900

Nutribullet
Doesn’t last long
Suzanne who bought Nutribullet complained in here review that it worked well initially but problems began to arise before she knew it. It all started with the leak that left a messy smoothie all over her countertop. All hell broke loose after that because the blades wouldn’t work well and the motor seemed to have lost its power. According to her it’s a poorly made blender that is just not meant to last and she is ready to return it.

Appalling customer service
Aaron who used Nutribullet exposed in his review that the customer service he received from the company was really bad and it has left a bad taste in his mouth. He bought the blender in a bid to make healthy drinks to go with his fitness regime but it was completely useless. He tried to raise his complaints with customer service but they were completely non-cooperative. He was made to jump through hoops but nothing came off it and he finally gave up, putting the blender away for good.

Not very capable
Alex who used Nutribullet revealed in her review that you are told it is going to be a powerful blender but that’s not really the case. The blade just stopped working after a point and it just couldn’t pulverize whole foods like it claims.

Nutribullet Rx
Poorly made
Rachel who used Nutribullet Rx complained in her review that she had her suspicions about the blender right from day one. As soon as she opened the delivery box she thought it was cheaply made and her doubts came true when the gasket started coming loose only in a matter of few weeks. She had done everything possible to follow the instructions but eventually the gasket just broke and got pulverized into pieces. She wishes the blender wasn’t so badly made.

Too big
Sharon who reviewed Nutribullet Rx revealed in her review that though it’s sold as a personal blender it is way too big and takes a lot of space on her countertop. She was just looking for a blender to make healthy drinks for herself but making small batches of recipes is quite difficult with it. She thinks the blender was probably made for families that can make the most out of it. She also complained about the fact that it just doesn’t get into soup mode and what’s worse is that it makes a lot of noise.

Nutribullet Pro 900
Powerful but not durable
Camilla who used Nutribullet Pro 900 complained in her review that though the blender is powerful it is not durable at all. The biggest problem she had was with the blade, which completely stopped working after a few weeks. There were some signs of it initially when it would stop after some time but soon enough it completely gave away. She also complained about the fact that it doesn’t come with a milling blade and it’s difficult to find another one. Overall she was unhappy with the construction of the blender, which according to her is not worth the price.

It’s only meant for smoothies
Shaun who reviewed Nutribullet Pro 900 exposed in his review that the blender works great to make smoothies but the buck stops there. If you want to make any other recipes or grind coffee for that matter, you will have to look at another blender. This one has its serious limitations, which he wasn’t aware of when buying it. He was also annoyed that it started leaking in a few weeks and while it worked, made a lot of noise.
