Our Verdict

KitchenAid K150

nutribullet Power Core

The nutribullet Power Core and the KitchenAid K150 are both full-size blenders, but they suit different needs. The K150 is more versatile overall: it can crush ice for frozen drinks and cocktails, and runs noticeably quieter. The Power Core trades that versatility for a much larger jar: at 72 ounces, versus the K150's 48-ounce jar, it holds significantly more, making it a better fit if you're regularly blending for a group. Both blenders struggle with nut butter to some degree, though the K150 gets considerably closer to a smooth result.
