To answer your question yes the Fiji can make smoothies and using fresh fruit is the best. Chop up the fruit add it to the machine you can add the ice to the reservoir on the top add your choice of milk or fruit juice. Make sure the smoothie selection is set on the machine and let it whirl!!! This machine is absolutely wonderful and I have yet to have any problems with it! Good luck

I think you might be looking for the coffee grinder that the manufacturer sell because this unit is for blending fruits and making smoothies. thanks

This more of a strictly juicing product. It would probably be better to use a blender because it allows the entire fruit to be used in the drink. This product just extracts the juice and leaves lots of pulp.

Absolutely!! We make fruit smoothies all the time using frozen fruit. It also is easy to make milk shakes with those ingredients.

I have never tried blending apples. My smoothie consists of kale, banana, strawberries and blueberries. This blender does a good job of "pulverizing" these ingredients.

This blender is designed to handle the toughest of blending jobs including frozen fruit. Its has a powerful 1400-watt motor and 250 MPH blade high speed to blend foods to the perfect consistency and freshest taste.

You should be able to make a smoothie. But do keep in mind the "liquid" limit so it won't run out under your blade. That is with any food processor. If you have a regular blender that would probably work better for you but this would if it is all you have.

Probably not. It is not the intended use.The blender is for soft fruits and veggies.

Yes and it works great! My smoothies blend up so much faster and smoother. Use it daily and have had no problems.

this is a juicer, not a blender, but a 2nd disc can be used to make smoothies, but i've never made smoothies before myself. i'm a juicer. this is a VERY powerful machine you can use for a very long time.

I make smoothies most every day out of frozen fruit, ice cubes, lettuce, seeds, and other items. Let me tell you that my smoothies are smooth as silk and never lumpy. And I had to send my blender back to Vita-Mix at year 5 because the motors would not speed up and in three day I received a refurbished blender and new container on my porch by air. Best C/S ever!

It's better than a juicer, it blends everything. I put vegetables and fruit and it blends them with ease...

You can make green smoothies with this blender, but you can do that with a magic bullet as well. If you want a green juice with little texture you'd want to buy a juicer.

No Way. It doesn't even blend soft fruits properly as the blade just chops only which is in the very bottom of the blender. You have to open the lid several times to cycle the contents manually to the bottom to get it chopped. I was about to return this item and it is stuck with me because of the return shipping charge.

If it is in good working condition, it will make a smoothie. However, MY unit was defective. It made a horrible noise, shaked and acted like it was going to explode. I did get mymoney back so they were good about that. I had an Acme juicer for years and years, it's an older juicer, but it was stainless steel, and worked so well. I was sorry I gave it away when I got the Big Boss. I still have not gotten another juicer so now I am without. I WOULD NOT recommend this terrible juicer. There has to be something else out there that is good. Maybe the Breville juicer. Sorry, them's the truth. If it is in good working condition, it will make a smoothie. However, MY unit was defective.

I want to purchase this blender for smoothies. Does it crush the ice and frozen fruit very well?

It's more of a juicer than for smoothies. It's better than a traditional juicer because the pulp does not get discarded. If you keep the apple skin on, you need to blend a little longer to turn it into a smooth juice. You won't be disappointed with the nutri bullet. It's really powerful.
