NutriBullet Lawsuit Overview

NutriBullet lawsuits claim that the company’s blenders are defectively designed, dangerous, and prone to explosions [1].

At least 22 people have filed suit against the makers of NutriBullet, alleging that the device caused burns, lacerations, nerve damage, and other serious injuries.

The blenders contain high-speed motors that spin at tens of thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm), creating friction and extreme heat that can cause unstable conditions leading to explosions.

Latest NutriBullet Lawsuit Updates

• June 30, 2025 – A New Jersey federal judge dismissed a lawsuit from a woman claiming her NutriBullet blender exploded and caused injury, finding that the plaintiff failed to demonstrate the blender was defective or improperly designed [2].

As a result, the case has been thrown out, though other separate lawsuits related to similar claims continue to proceed.
• June 2022 – NutriBullet LLC received final approval for a $10 million class action settlement to resolve claims that some of its blenders are prone to overheating and causing serious burns.
