Nama C2 Cold Press Juicer + Blender Review

I recently had the absolute pleasure of getting my hands on the brand-new Nama C2 Cold Press Juicer + Blender, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer in my kitchen. If you've been following my juicing journey, you know I'm a big fan of the Nama J2, so expanding to the C2 was incredibly exciting.

What is the Nama C2?

The C2's ability to seamlessly switch between slow juicing and powerful blending is a game-changer. Just like its revolutionary predecessor, the J2, you can load up whole fruits and veggies, hit the start button, and let the machine work its magic while you step away. The result? Nutrient-packed, delicious juice that's a breeze to make.

The Motor

First off, let's talk about that sleek design. The motor base of the C2 is a thing of beauty – it looks right at home on my kitchen counter. The modern aesthetics make me feel like I have my very own juice bar right in my home. But what truly stands out is the weight of the base.

It's solid and substantial, which some might see as a drawback, but here's where it becomes a good thing. That weight keeps the C2 securely planted on your countertop. Once it's there, trust me, you won't want to move it – it's a must-have kitchen companion.

Why Blending?

Now, when it comes to blending, the C2 is a powerhouse. It can turn frozen ingredients into silky-smooth smoothies, whip up comforting soups, create mouthwatering sauces, craft creamy nut butters, crush ice like a champ, and even mill grains. Whether you prefer using preset programs or going manual, the control is right at your fingertips. Plus, here's a neat trick – you can juice your fresh produce first and then use that as the base for your smoothies. It's a fantastic way to maximize your nutrient intake and minimize waste.

Nama’s Philosophy

Now, you might be wondering, why blend? Well, Nama's philosophy is all about helping us embrace the full spectrum of plant-based goodness. While juicing remains a focus, blending allows us to enjoy a variety of plant foods, fibers, leafy greens, superfoods, and super powders – all of which contribute to a healthier, more diverse diet. It's a fantastic option for those just starting their journey into plant-based eating.

One thing I absolutely love about Nama's approach is their commitment to helping people embrace more plants through amazing kitchen accessories. Without my trusty J2 juicer, I definitely wouldn't consume such nourishing juices. The C2 continues this tradition, making it even easier for all of us to enjoy the benefits of both juicing and blending.

The Tech Side of Things

Okay, let's get into some technical details. The C2 comes with fantastic bonus features, including a Sorbet Attachment (valued at $50 but free with the C2), exclusive Juicing 101 and Blending 101 Courses led by nutritionists, and plant-based meal plans complete with chef-created recipes and shopping lists. You'll also receive booklets with juice and smoothie recipes, along with a Quick Start Guide and User Manual. (And to sweeten the deal, you'll enjoy my 10% discount.)

The blades of the C2 blender are built to last indefinitely, so no need to worry about sharpening them. What really matters is the machine's torque, spinning at 16,000 RPM and capable of varying up to 26,500 RPM. As for the warranty, you're covered with a generous 15-year warranty on the C2 – they've built it to stand the test of time.

Sustainability

Now, let's talk about the eco-conscious packaging of the Nama C2, because sustainability matters. I must say, I absolutely love how much thought Nama has put into this.

Farewell to Plastic

Say goodbye to excessive plastic packaging. Nama has made a bold move by eliminating plastic from the equation.

Reusable Bamboo Bags

Here's the exciting part – all the main components come protected with reusable bamboo bags, featuring delightful and unique designs. These bags are not only charming but also incredibly sturdy. And the best part? They're machine washable (just avoid the dryer). You can use them for storing produce, as grocery bags, and more. They are a sustainable and stylish addition to your kitchen.

Compostable Gift Box

The gift box itself is 100% compostable, showcasing Nama's commitment to reducing its environmental footprint.

Eco-Friendly Inks

Nama has gone the extra mile by using water-based and plant-based inks on brown cardboard. No harsh chemicals here!

No More Glue

Traditional glue between printed materials has been replaced with a rubber stamp. It's a small change with big implications for sustainability.

Biodegradable Handles

Those plastic handles? Gone! They've been replaced with sturdy, biodegradable paper handles. People have even been using them in their gardens to suppress weeds – talk about taking sustainability to a whole new level!

Compost or Recycle

Every piece of packaging, including recipe books, manuals, and quick start guides, is either compostable or recyclable. It's a clear testament to Nama's dedication to a greener world.

I have to admit, those reusable bamboo bags are not only eco-friendly but also incredibly cute and of amazing quality. It's refreshing to see a brand go the extra mile to reduce its environmental impact while delivering top-notch products. Well done, Nama!

Now, how does it compare to other blenders on the market? Nama has put it to the test, and it stands tall among the best.

Results

My experience with the Nama C2 has been nothing short of incredible. It's elevated my juicing and blending game, allowing me to enjoy a more diverse and nutrient-packed diet. It's a game-changer, and I can't wait to see how it transforms your wellness journey!
