Looking at the Ninja Kitchen Systems, but which one?

Hey y’all! I having a difficult time choosing between the Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System and the Ninja Mega Kitchen System. I’d like some suggestions or experiences with either systems and some help making up my mind. Any other suggestions for other appliances would be appreciated too, but there is a caveat that I’ll mention later. So lately I’ve been trying out new recipes and exploring in the kitchen, but a lot of the things I’d like to cook need a blender or food processor, which I don’t have. I have a small smoothie/grinder thing my grandma gave my mom for her daily smoothies, but it’s difficult to use since the lid gets stuck in the base. I also am tired of using the 10-20 year old immersion blender for any blending I have to do. My Black+Decker food processor finally bit the dust, and I was thinking I should just get an all-in-one system which would save counter-space since my kitchen is a galley kitchen with minimal counter space (this is the caveat I mentioned earlier) and also allow me to rid myself of old appliances.** ** When I was perusing Costco once, I saw the Ninja Deluxe Kitchen System at like… $139.99 USD but this was around March this year and now looking at the price online (I think its the same one) it’s $260 now (yikes, should’ve nabbed it..). I’d like to avoid spending over $200 dollars on an appliance, and right now the two I mentioned above are on sale for $169.97 and $153.99. Both of them seem relatively the same, except for the appearance, wattage, and smoothie cup sizes. I’m finding it kind of difficult to make a choice since most reviews on both are about the same and honestly it may just come down to aesthetics and/or price (I find the professional more visually appealing but I’m a sucker for saving money where I can). Any opinions, experiences, and or suggestions are welcome! Thank you for taking the time to read this ❤️ submitted by /u/mynamewasautumn [link] [comments]
