Ninja CI090UK performs like cheaper blenders and mixers, so buying two separate tools may save money.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Ninja CI090UK

  • Versatile 2-in-1 design saves cupboard space by combining a hand mixer and an immersion blender into one appliance.
  • Powerful 850W SmartTorque motor easily handles thick mixtures, stiff cookie doughs, and fibrous ingredients like kale.
  • Sturdy, durable, and premium build quality that feels well-balanced in the hand.
  • Automatic attachment recognition adjusts the available speed range seamlessly.
  • Gradual-start feature on the mixer prevents splattering and mess when beginning to blend.
  • Dishwasher-safe stainless steel attachments make cleanup quick and easy.

What customers don't like about Ninja CI090UK

  • Noticeably heavier than average compared to single-purpose hand blenders and mixers.
  • The internal parts of the attachments can become very warm during prolonged hand mixer use.
  • Buttons are relatively small and require multiple presses to toggle up to the highest speed.
  • Turbo button must be held down continuously to maintain maximum power.
  • The pot guard and seal area under the blades can be difficult to clean thoroughly by hand.
  • Does not include a measuring jug or blending vessel at this price point.

Verdict

The Ninja Foodi 2-in-1 Hand Blender & Mixer CI090UK features a powerful 850W SmartTorque motorbase that automatically recognizes its top-rack dishwasher-safe attachments to offer optimized settings, providing 2 blending speeds in immersion mode and 5 mixing speeds plus a turbo option when paired with its dual-beater hand mixer configuration. Main advantages include its space-saving dual functionality, excellent weight distribution for seamless one-handed operation, a gradual-start feature that prevents kitchen splatters, and a generous 1.5-meter power cord. However, notable drawbacks include its slightly heavy build at 1.07 kg to 1.35 kg, small speed-control buttons that require multiple presses to reach maximum power, and a turbo button that must be held down continuously during short bursts.
