Best blender for smoothies?

[mira45]

Blender is my indispensable assistant in the kitchen and in the preparation of not only cocktails, but also just to finely chop vegetables for cooking various dishes))) I have been using the SILANGA BL550 Smoothie maker for a long time and am absolutely satisfied with everything, the power and even the nice appearance makes a big difference in making smoothies cocktails)) Value for money too)) I recommend this choice))

Magic bullet blender is an amazing product in terms of features, reliability and reviews. The high impact plastic cups are damage free, which means no hazards to your health. The 250-watt powerful motor base is best for making smoothies and shakes for one person. The lid covering allows you to take it along with you while traveling. The recipe book will assist you in making different delicious dishes. It is one of the best blenders under 50 and gets a bulk of attention for real buyers as well. Although the motor is not very powerful, it is perfect for a single person.

I use an immersion blender, works on all kinds of frozen or fresh fruit and veggies,  easy to clean, just pull it out of the glass and rinse off.  I am more inclined to make a smoothie with this as I got sick of taking apart a big blender and washing all the parts.

Excellent, thanks for the tip @BASILCHIVES! 😁

You should  buy Magic Bullet blender. I am using it and am satisfied with its features. Because this is the best blenders can power through ice and frozen fruit as well as fresh ingredients to create smoothies and creamy drinks. So you can buy this Magic Bullet blender this make you happy every time.

I loved my Vitamix and will eventually get another.  In the Interim I find that I am very happy with the Instant Pot blender.  I have only had it for a few months, but so far, so good.  For $100, it is a good product, imo ~

When it comes to blenders, you can't beat Vitamix...It's the industry standard...Works great for smoothies, soups, nut butters, hummus & so much more.  It's pricey, but worth it.

[DavideFitbit]

Interesting options, @BarthdeRosa @Nimuae @N2F1tNz! I think I'll definitely give Vitamix and Magic Bullet a try. 

What else do you use specifically to prepare your smoothies (veggies, fruits)? 😀

[supergolfdude]

You can find seemingly endless smoothies recipes on YouTube. One thing that I recommend is that you follow a recipe. If you just throw fruits and vegetables into a blender and expecting a great smoothie, you’re very likely to be disappointed.

I find there are two kinds of Magic Bullet users... (1) those who use them for a few months until they break and (2) those who are disappointed with their limitations. Do yourself a favor and get the VitaMix. It’ll last forever and does vastly more than the cheap Magic Bullet.

The Instant Pot Ace Nova is really good, It is great for smoothies and it has a feature that cooks soup.  Generally under $100 at Walmart or Kohl's

[Nimuae]

Frozen fruit, (blueberries, mixed berries, or peaches), greek yogurt, kale, spinach, pitted dates for sweetness, ground flax seed and collagen powder.

Great suggestions, @supergolfdude @Nimuae! I'll definitely look for a recipe with some of the things I like. Some specific fruits are a good combination with specific vegetables. 😀

Hi @saccokayleigh 

I tend to be on the go quite a bit so I chose the Blendjet. It is portable, can handle ice, is easy to clean and has a carrying case and bag you can purchase separately that make it even more portable and convenient.

Blendjet is amazing (used it for a year) but I switched to a Magic Bullet recently. The power on that thing is amazing!

Hello everybody! I would like to hop in.

I currently have the Nutribullet. It´s on Amazon for 55 USD. Excellent choice for smoothies. However, I am more of a juice guy. I use an extractor to get the best out of my fruit. Still I enjoy a smoothie from time to time. Anybody else with a Nutribullet? Do you have other suggestions? Keep it coming. 

Regards!

Hi, how are you doing today?

[semirason]

I am also looking for a good blender

[mjhill0813]

I've owned several blenders. Vitamix is the best by far. I've had the magic bullet, Ninja, various <$50 brands, and the Vitamix. My Vitamix is 10 years old, I use it every single day, and it's as good as day one. Nothing I've found compares even close. Yes, they're $350+ but 10 years and going strong means $35/year. Worth every penny!

I love my Vitamix (E310 Explorian Blender). I use it all the time. With it, I can...

• make delicious smoothies with frozen fruits. Not every blender can easily crush frozen fruits like blueberries. This is great for summer!
• make my own nuts butter. Great when you want to personalize by having a mix of different nuts (almond, pecan, walnut, peanut, ...)
• make my own plant-based milk! Again, not every blender can crush nuts well enough to make alternative milk like almond milk.
