We have a ninja (my MIL does the buy one get one free, just pay shipping and handling stuff for all things As Seen On TV) and I didn't know it can juice. We have used it as a blender and it's very powerful. Blends ice for smoothies very well. Very easy cleanup as well.

I think I would get a juicer, if you're looking for a juicer... I don't see our Ninja being a good juicer...

I used to have a Ninja. It does work well, but the ingredients would never puree as finely as I wanted to, no matter how long I blended them for. I like to make green shakes and I felt like I was sucking salad through a straw, because there would still be tidbits of spinach leaves floating around. Another thing I didn't like was that the blade was huge and hard to clean. I wanted to really scrub it down after using it, but was always afraid of cutting myself on it.

I actually ended up returning the Ninja because I wasn't 100% happy with the way it was performing as a juicer. Not only that, but I kept having issues with the ingredients separating once the smoothie/juice was poured into a cup and had been sitting around for a few minutes.

I bought the Vitamix instead and I LOVE it. The price is a lot higher, but it purees all of the fruit and veggies so finely and also very quickly. Super easy to clean too!
