My favourite Ninja summer gadget has been slashed by £70 in a rare deal

I'VE BEEN obsessed with the Ninja Slushi ever since it launched last November.
I finally got my hands on this gadget during the heatwave in June, and wrote about it in my Ninja Slushi review.
After testing it extensively, I can confidently say it's one of the most fun kitchen appliances I've ever used.
Now, in a rare twist, it's been discounted as part of Ninja's Summer Sale, meaning shoppers can save £70 right now.

Usually priced at £349.99, the Slushi is now available for £279.99 with the code NINJA20.
This sale runs until August 12, giving customers plenty of time to consider the purchase.
However, if you want to make Slushies this summer, I'd recommend acting now — it's rare for this gadget to be discounted, and I don't see its price tag being slashed again until Black Friday in November.
It wouldn't even be a surprise to see it sell out; after all, shelves were emptied repeatedly upon its launch in the US last year, with some reports alleging that it sold out a massive 15 times.
Why the Ninja Slushi is worth It
At £350 full price, you'd be forgiven for thinking the Slushi is an expensive one-trick pony.
And you might be right; there's certainly no way of framing it as a responsible purchase (unless you've been spending hundreds of pounds on takeaway slushies every year).
And, as I've seen other people point out, it's certainly not the sort of appliance you'll be using every day.
I'd argue it's a party piece.
While you might not use it super regularly, when you do, people won't be able to stop talking about it.

Every time I've had people over to my house since I got it, I've got it out, and the look on people's faces when they see a Slushie machine whirring away in your kitchen is golden.
And this machine does more than just make slushies; it has five preset functions, allowing you to easily whip up frappés, milkshakes, frozen cocktails, and juices.
It's big enough to ten sensibly-sized servings in one go, which makes it perfect for gatherings.
One of the things I love most is how easy it is to customise your drinks.
The adjustable temperature settings allow you to tweak the consistency to suit your taste, and there's even a handy alert system that lets you know if your recipe needs more sugar or less alcohol to freeze properly.
After experimenting with Ninja's recipes and ideas from the Ninja Slushi Enthusiasts Facebook group, I've discovered countless ways to use it, from tropical slushies to dangerously delicious frozen cocktails.
Why it's worth buying now

Here's the thing — the Ninja Slushi doesn't often go on sale.
It's been a successful product for SharkNinja — as I mentioned, it perpetually sold out for months following its launch in the US, meaning there's been little reason for the brand to slash its price tag.
It was excluded from Prime Day deals last month, and I personally haven't seen it dip below £340.
This £70 saving is one of the few opportunities to grab it for less.
The timing couldn't be better either, with summer still in full swing and plenty of opportunities to make the most of it.
If you've been eyeing up the Slushi, now's the time to go for it.
