Anyone own a Ninja Kitchen System?

[bfuzzy2]

I have a food processor which is a hand me down that is broke but you can still use it. I have a blender that is old, broke but still works, that has a hard time producing a decent smoothie. So I know a Vitamix would replace both of these items, but who I am kidding I will never be able to afford one I was looking into the Ninja kitchen systems that seem a little more in my budget. I have some store credit to bed, bath, & beyond plus maybe I could score a 20% off coupon

Anyone here on DS have one or used one and if so what are the pros/cons? I am looking to make smoothies, salsa, dips, and pie crust dough.

Thanks
