  "account": "The Ninja PREPi is a compact and versatile food processor that can perform five different functions: chop, puree, slice, shred, and crinkle cut. This 5-in-1 model comes with three blades, including a chopping/puree blade, a crinkle cut disc, and a reversible slide/shred disc. A six-in-one model with a dicing disc is also available, or it can be purchased separately for an additional $59.99. The machine includes two prep bowls and lids, with sizes of 5-cup and 7-cup, allowing users to prep food ahead of time and store it in the fridge for later use.\n\nTests showed the Ninja PREPi handled various tasks with ease, such as slicing a large bag of potatoes into thin, uniform slices in a short amount of time. However, it was not designed for making smoothies. After use, all parts are dishwasher-safe, except for the motor, which only requires a damp cloth wipe. Despite having a lot of parts, cleaning is relatively straightforward.\n\nAvailable in four color options for the 5-in-1 model and one for the 6-in-1, the Ninja PREPi retails for $179.99 (around £130 / AU$260). It can be purchased directly from Ninja or through third-party retailers such as Amazon, Target, Walmart, and Best Buy. Users appreciate its design, which makes it easy to use, with a three-part pusher to hold ingredients in place during slicing or shredding. Cleanup is also simple, requiring only the removal and washing of all parts, except the motor.",
