Best portable blender 2022: tested by our appliance experts
(Image credit: Blendjet 2)
Portable blenders – or personal blenders – will be your perfect buy if you love to blend and drink on the go, tend to make single-serve portions, or if you have a smaller household and don't need a full-size appliance.
We've tested a ton of personal blenders, including corded and cordless models, for everything from power to portability, blending function and ease of cleaning, putting them through their paces for everything from smoothies to salsas to ensure we can report back meticulously on performance, weight and ease of use.
Heftier choices are typically more powerful, though the Cuisinart EvolutionX Cordless Blender is our top choice; it packs in a lot of power in a small device. More on that, just below.
And while the on-the-go, take it to the gym portability is the main reason you might want to buy a portable blender, don't think these compact wonders can't do everything the bigger traditional best blenders can. Most personal blenders can take on the same blending tasks, just in smaller quantities, which might just suit you perfectly.

Can't use when plugged in
Why you should buy it: Long-lasting rechargeable battery; crushes ice and frozen berries with ease.
Powerful blending
Our reviewer Lindsey, H&G's Director of Home Ecomms, was pleasantly surprised by how well the Cuisinart EvolutionX tackled the trickiest of ingredients, including ice and frozen fruits. 'You may have to make sure frozen ingredients are prepped in smaller pieces; a standard-sized ice cube posed no problems, but anything slightly bigger will get stuck between the blade and the side of the cup, as I realized when trying to blend half a frozen banana,' she reports.
Ease of use
Using the blender couldn’t be easier: everything goes into the 16-ounce cup, then you press the button to activate the single-speed motor until you’ve got your desired mix. It also comes with a travel lid to drink straight out of the container.
Battery life
The battery lasts for up to 20 minutes, which was more than enough to prep multiple smoothies, as well as salsas or pastes, or use over a period of time without recharging. 'My main gripe is that it won't work when it's plugged in, so make sure it's topped up on power if you plan on using it at home,' says Lindsey.

Doesn’t handle dry foods
Why you should buy it: Powerful 1100W motor, larger blending capacity than smaller models; best for home-only use.
Powerful blending
The sheer power of the Ninja Nutri Blender Pro with Auto-IQ puts it above some countertop blenders and gives you a bit more flexibility with the ingredients that you can tackle. The blender handled soft fruits with ease, but add tougher fruits or even frozen ingredients and you can see what the 1100W motor is really for: here, you get similar smooth results as you’d expect from a much larger blender. Although it can handle dry ingredients, the Nutri Pro didn’t do a particularly good job, with uneven chopping and blending.
Ease of use
This single-speed blender is also really easy to use: everything gets loaded into a cup, then you press down to engage the motor. It features the same Auto-iQ programming found in its countertop blenders, like the Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System, to take the guesswork out of blending. There are travel lids for the included 18oz and 24oz cups, and everything (including the blades) can go in the dishwasher.
Best for home use
This model is corded, and the base is chunky too, but you do get greater capacity and a powerful blend. This, we think, makes it a good middle ground for any of you who don't have space for or need a bulky traditional blender, or who want one for their RV. It's not one you're going to take to the gym, which is why it's number two on our list.
We're big fans of the Ninja brand and this portable blender is on our testing wait list; it makes this list because we've previously reviewed the earlier Nutri Pro model, which has 900W of power; this one has even more to offer, and 96% of independent, verified users on Amazon recommend it

Struggles with tough ingredients
Why you should buy it: Versatile – the pulse mode means you can make chunky dips, too.
Pulse mode
While this portable blender is a handy on-the-go buy, the fact that there's a blending mode and pulse setting means you can use it at home to make dips, and power through thicker ingredients. 'This is useful if you've been browsing the best food processors but can't afford the space or budget to buy one – this personal blender can step into some of those functions,' says Millie, our Head of Reviews, who tested this portable blender.
Great blending
Millie used the BlendJet 2 to make a fresh fruit smoothie. 'While it struggled a bit with tougher ingredients like the core of berries, overall it did an impressive job,' she reports. 'And because it's cordless, you can shake it when blending to make sure that ingredients for dips are incorporated. This came in very useful when I made pesto from scratch.'
Ease of cleaning
There's an in-built blade that isn't removable, so you will have to drink out of the blending cup or pour your drink out. Cleaning is easy: just pour in some water and dish soap and run a blending cycle, or shake.

Can't blend ice
Why you should buy it: Lightweight; long-lasting battery; supremely portable.
Portability
Not only is it seriously lightweight (only 1. 5lbs) but the NutriBullet GO Portable Blender also has a clever two-part design that means you can carry around the bottle, full of fruits or protein shakes, and the blending unit separately. If you're wondering which Nutribullet to buy, this is your best portable bet.
Power
Our tester, H&G's Reviews Editor Millie Hurst found that it was capable of blending fresh fruits with ease, but struggled with ice cubes due to its limited power. 'For shakes and smoothies, however, this is a great-value portable blender,' she reports. It's worth noting that the Nutribullet GO won't blend unless it is attached securely to the base, which is a good safety measure to prevent any mishaps. It switches off automatically after a 30-second blend, so when we did need to blend for a longer period of time, we'd have to start a new cycle.
Quiet operation
If you are up and out early like Millie, you'll appreciate how quiet this personal blender runs. 'Your family won't hear you blending early in the morning, nor will it disturb colleagues if you use it at work, it's super quiet,' says Millie.

A bit heavy
Why you should buy it: Powerful enough for ice-crushing; very fast; short charge time, good battery life.
Powerful ice crushing
'Though we don't have a review of this blender written up yet, I've owned one myself and can tell you that the BlenderX Cordless Portable Blender outperformed the other portable blenders when it came to ice crushing,' says H&G's Reviews Editor Millie Fender. 'Great if you love a frozen smoothie. I also and we like that it comes with a larger 20. oz plastic cup.'
Simple to use
'It's very easy to use, a case of simply screwing onto the plastic cup to start blending,' says Millie. 'The singular front button glows when charging, and when the blender is turned on. There is a screw-on cap that keeps your blades protected when not in use.'
Best for home/RV use
'My main issue was the weight of this portable blender because the base is hefty,' says Millie. 'It weighs 4.62 pounds in total, and this is why it sits at number five. However, it does comes with a carry bag and suction cups to keep the base attached to your counter, so I think it's perfectly suited for use in RVs or camping trips. For taking in your handbag though, it's maybe a little weighty.'

How we picked the best portable blenders
(Image credit: Future)
How we test blenders is something we're proud of. Our on-staff reviews team tests in both our test kitchen and in their own homes, and not just over the course of a day, but over weeks. Often, we're lucky enough to keep the products, which means we can continually update our buying guides with comments about longevity.
For this portable blender guide, we first tried blending smoothies. We tried a mix of frozen and fresh fruits, mixed with regular or nut milk, and a drizzle of honey. If the blender has an automatic shutoff we made a note of how many tries it took to get the smoothie to the perfect consistency.
We also tried making pesto in our portable blenders, which allowed us to see how they handled less wet ingredients. This also helped us see if any odors would remain inside the blending cup after use.
Finally, we made crushed ice to see if the blenders could handle a few ice cubes. This is a big challenge for a portable blender, but some surprised us with how well they did.
We tested both corded and cordless personal blenders because while a cordless blender is rarely as powerful as a corded one, the very best can manage what most of us want from them: well-blended smoothies we can make on-the-go.
Our review and testing guidelines provide more insight into our processes, and our testers for this guide are listed below.

How to choose a portable blender?
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO)
Portable blenders (also known as travel or personal blenders) are typically designed to make smoothies directly into travel mugs. They’re built for quick, grab-and-go operation, and are designed to be easier and quicker to use than their full-sized models.
There are lots of different models and no right choice, as it depends on how you want to use the blender. If you travel a lot and want a blender that you can throw in your luggage, then size is all-important. Look for a smaller, lighter blender, even if you have to compromise on a smaller travel mug as a result.
If you’re going camping a lot and won’t have power, then look for a battery-powered model that you can pre-charge and use when you’re out.
Smaller blenders tend to have lower-powered motors, so will work well with soft fruits and for making most smoothies, but you’ll find they struggle with (or can’t handle) ice or frozen ingredients.
If you mostly make smoothies at home, then you can get a model with a bigger base and a larger motor. With a bigger motor, you’ll be able to make a wider variety of drinks.
For home use, you may find it useful to get a blender with different accessories, such as a chopping bowl for preparing ingredients for cooking, or a grinder for dealing with spices.
How much does a portable blender cost?
(Image credit: Cuisinart)
As they’re smaller and aren’t as powerful as full-size blenders, prices are much lower. An entry-level blender should cost under $50, and give you basic smoothie making with softer fruits.
At the high-end, you can spend up to $150 on a model with more accessories and more powerful motors to give you more flexibility.
Is a portable blender as good as a full-size blender?
A portable blender is different from a full-size one. Most portable models are designed to be quick and easy to use, with one-button operation and single-speed motors. They’re typically as good as large models for smoothies.
Travel blenders are generally quite limited, though: you can make smaller quantities, they’re not built to run for as long, and they don’t have the controls of a full-size model.
You usually can’t use hot liquids in personal blenders, either, as the travel cups are made from plastic that could be damaged by the heat.
If you want to vary what you can make, and have more control over the process, a full-size blender makes sense and, as our guide showed, you can always add a travel cup to your model to give you that blend-and-go convenience.

It’s an image that paints itself: you wake up bright and early and get your gym bag ready. You make sure you have everything you need to head straight to the office after your workout. Washbag? Check. Work clothes? Check. Nutribullet GO portable blender? Check.
None of us have had much use for even the best portable blenders in the past year, but with the return of the morning commute (or vacations, or just leaving the house) comes the need to leave your kitchen, and all of your favorite appliances. That’s where the NutriBullet GO Portable Blender comes in, though. It has a lightweight design that allows you to store everything you need to blend up in a travel cup, and screw it onto a rechargeable base for blending on the go, literally. I put the NutriBullet GO Portable Blender to the test for a week to see how it works and if it can compare to a corded blender.
My verdict? For the price, it’s one of the best blenders you can buy.
Specifications:
(Image credit: Nutribullet)
- Colors: silver, red, black, white
- Type: portable blender
- Weight: 1. 5lb
- Capacity: 13oz
- Speed settings: 1
- Material: plastic
- Dimensions: 7.52 x 7.01 x 4.06 inches
- Motor: 700 watts
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO)
Even the box that the NutriBullet GO comes in is small. It has two main parts: a base, with the button to start the blending process and a screw-on plastic lid that covers the blades, and a travel cup, which has a plastic lid with a carry handle.
The blender comes with a decent amount of charge, which is a nice touch. I was able to begin blending almost immediately.
(Image credit: Nutribullet)
The first impression I had of the NutriBullet GO was that it is very lightweight indeed. At just 1.5 pounds, it really is incredibly portable. I could happily throw it into a rucksack for work without being weighed down. Because it is so compact, I wouldn’t even need a rucksack to carry it. My regular handbag would more than suffice.
The carry cup is not too big. It has a capacity of 13oz, so this truly is a personal blender. I found that filling to the max line created a full cup of smoothie or shake, but not enough to share.
Safety features with the NutriBullet GO
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO)
Screwing the cup onto the base of the blender will cause the lights to flash blue. This signifies that the blender is ready to go. If you haven’t screwed on the cup it won’t be possible to turn the blender on, so there is no risk of accidentally shredding the contents of your bag or potentially injuring yourself with an exposed blade.
The lid to both the carry cup and the blender base can screw on very securely, so I did feel safe taking this on the go.
NutriBullet GO: how does it perform?
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO)
The first smoothie I made in the NutriBullet GO had all the classics: milk, blueberries, strawberries, and spinach. I was impressed with how easily the blades sliced through the spinach and strawberries, and I had a smoothie within 30 seconds.
I also tried this blender with frozen strawberries and raspberries to see how it could handle small amounts of frozen fruits, and while there were a lot of seeds, all of the frozen fruit came out well-blended.
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO)
One of the most striking things about this blender is how quiet it is, which is perfect for using in an office or on the go. You won’t wake anyone up with this blender, the noise level is comparable to an electric toothbrush. To turn the blender on you just press the button twice. After a cycle the NutriBullet GO automatically shuts off, but you can also shut it off by pressing the button once mid-cycle.
The smoothie came out well blended, but when pouring out of the blending cup I found that there were a few blueberries that had not been blended. The NutriBullet GO has no trouble blending blueberries, because most of the handful I had added were fully blended, but it must have somehow missed a couple due to the very short cycle.
Can it handle ice?
(Image credit: Nutribullet GO )
There are two main uses for the NutriBullet GO – making morning commutes more straightforward, or taking on trips in RVs or campsites. Neither of these scenarios will enable you to have fresh ice to blend in the NutriBullet GO, but I thought it was only fair to see how it handled ice.
I added two cubes of ice to my morning smoothie to see how the NutriBullet GO Portable Blender would handle it. While the ice cubes didn’t get in the way of the blending, they came out of the blender virtually intact. The rest of the smoothie was very cold and well blended, but no, the NutriBullet GO cannot crush ice.
How to clean the NutriBullet GO Cordless Blender
(Image credit: Nutribullet)
I found the blades easy to clean after use. Doing this immediately after you use the blender will mean that no residue dries onto the blades, which makes cleaning a very easy process.
The carry cup and the lid cannot go in the dishwasher but I found that adding some water and dish soap to the bottle and shaking it with the lid screwed on was an effective way of cleaning.
Should you buy the NutriBullet GO?
(Image credit: Nutribullet)
I have soft spot for this blender, but it's only suitable for a certain customer. If you want a blender for your home and feel like it could be convenient to go cordless, you'll be disappointed in its lack of power. But, if you love a morning smoothie or a post-gym protein shake, it's a really great buy.
For a start, it's super affordable, so much so that you could justify having it as a blender that you exclusively use when you're on the go or taking a trip, and it's also incredibly lightweight and quiet, meaning that using it on the go really won't be a problem.

The best smoothie blenders of 2022🏆 Rating of the best submersible and stationary blenders for cocktails
Today, only a lazy person does not take care of his health, including the quality of food. A healthy menu is thought out for every day and one of the favorite delicacies in it is smoothies. This is a thick drink made from fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs. You can also add milk, mineral water, cereals or nuts to it. And when it's very hot - a handful of ice. Making smoothies at home is easy, all you need is the right blender. Let's figure out how to choose one and which cocktail blenders have become the best in 2022.

Pros and cons of smoothie blenders
There are two types of smoothie blender: submersible and stationary. They differ from each other in design. Depending on which one you choose, you will get a different set of pros and cons.
Immersion Smoothie Blender
Pros:
- Compact, won't take up much space in the kitchen.
- Easy to care for. I prepared a drink, disconnected the nozzle and washed it.
- Can be cooked in any container and in small portions.
- Convenient to take with you to the country or on vacation.
- Nice price.
Cons:
- You can't leave, you always have to control the process.
- Always hold in hand during cooking.
- It is difficult to find a container that does not splash during cooking.

Stationary smoothie blender
Pros:

- All you have to do is put your smoothie ingredients into the bowl, turn on the blender, and you're good to go.
- The bowl is closed so that the drink does not spill during the process.
- The stationary blender has many additional functions. You can add ice to the smoothie and the blender will prick it up.
Faults:
- Some models are very noisy.
- Takes up more space in the kitchen than the submersible model.
- The price can "bite".
- Cannot be taken on the road.

How to choose the best smoothie blender?
The range of blenders today is large. Manufacturers are trying to surprise with new additional options, attachments and design of equipment. But rarely where you will see that this particular blender will prepare the perfect smoothie for you in the morning. You have to analyze each option yourself. When choosing a blender for making a cocktail, we advise you to pay attention to the following criteria:
- Design . Is it a blender submersible or stationary, as mentioned above, its strengths and weaknesses will depend on this.
- Power . It affects the quality of the finished product and the cooking time. For example, if the blender has low power, it will not be able to grind large pieces or solid foods well. Plus, low-power equipment does not allow you to cook quickly. Choose a model from 600-800 W, this is quite enough for a smoothie.
- Speed set . The stronger the motor, the faster the blender blades rotate. And then the products are crushed better, the smoothie is thick, homogeneous. It is desirable that the speed was two or three. In more expensive models, their number can reach up to ten, but if the task is to prepare smoothies or mashed potatoes, this is a waste of money.
- Bowl size and material . Usually a cocktail consists of several ingredients, and the volume of the finished drink will always be less than the bowl itself. Therefore, it is optimal to choose a blender with a capacity of at least 1.5 liters. It is also worth paying attention to what the bowl is made of. Glass will last you longer than plastic. In addition, the latter wears out quickly and retains the smell of food. In more expensive models, the bowls are made of steel.
- Additional options . If you plan on adding ice to smoothies, it's important to have an ice crusher. Users are also interested in such an option as self-cleaning of the blender.
To make your choice even easier, we offer you to explore the TOP smoothie blenders of 2022.
