Why did you pick this product vs others?:Fantastic company. Works 100% as advertized. Don't stuff your portable blenders :) I really never needed to shake the device when blending.the bad.LOUD. db must be 90 -110.Tip! if at home, push the button to blend ( your choice of 3 selections :) ) when you stick the blender under the kitchen sink. PUSH Blend _ CLOSE DOOR. Nice and quiet :)

In love. I've only used it one time and I'm already in love. I was using a Blendjet prior to this and it was struggling to blend anything. My fruit would have to be thawed and there would still be big chunks it in. The Ninja blows Blendjet out of the water. It handled my ingredients like a pro and blended while the fruit was frozen so it's actually a smoothie I'm drinking and not a warm. In 30 seconds I had a great smoothie. Fantastic quality, worth the buy.

Nifty blender for single serving smoothies. Charged up quickly. Easy to use. Minimal use of counter space. Left a few chunks of raw blueberries in the bottom on the first use (while not the end of the world, could be a newbie error). Definitely an upgrade to the old measuring cup+immersion blender w dull blades.

This is the BEST thing I own in my kitchen! That good. The charge lasted for 5 days and I crushed ice in every smoothie. I made one or two a day. It is not as good as my vitamix, you have to soak dates but u can't take the vitamix with you and its honestly just too big for a single person. Plus, you only have to rinse this out and you are ready for the next one. I wouldn't trade it for anything!My one gripe is that because you only use that cord once a week, if you are as organized as I am, you are bound to lose it. And I am NOT HAPPY about them not just making it a generic usb.It's really wonderful. Here's a great recipe: cottage cheese, milk, cocoa, honey, banana. Blend. Add ice. Blend. Sooo good. 22oz milkshake for 1/4 of the calories and tons of protein and B vitamins, can u say energy! I also throw juice and any fruit in it. Blend. Add ice. Blend again. Take it with you. Never pay for a ridiculously priced smoothie again!

Quick update after using it for a few weeks - the charging indicator works fine, showing green for a number of smoothies, turning red/orange after 7 of them. Probably needed a couple of cycles to calibrate the display.I took it camping a few times and it works just great. I love that the mixing container does double duty as a smoothie bottle rather than having to use yet another thing that needs to be cleaned. I also bought a sleeve/bag for the Blast Max which protects it well during travels.Allow charging via USB-C (or car 12V adapter), and perhaps simplify the cap somehow for easier cleaning, and it would be a clear 5/5.I am an avid Camper and a Health Nut. For my daily smoothie, I use a Vitamix 6300 which reduces anything in the container to a smooth mass. For camping, I had one of those hand-held blenders which do work but tend to clog up quickly and create more of a lumpy than a smoothie. Also, there is always the danger of getting splashed which isn't fun when you're dealing with beets.So I figured I'd give this a try to bring my camping smoothies up to the next level. Note that I pre-blend most of the ingredients in my Vitamix and then freeze the result into concentrated cubes for camping, add banana and frozen pineapple and some Chia, let it sit outside the freezer over night and blend it in the morning.Anyway, I haven't gone camping with the Blast yet, but I think it will work out just fine. I tested how many smoothies I get out of one battery charge and got 11 after the first charge. So blending twice per smoothie will make it last 5 days which is fine for me.The resulting smoothie is right in between the Vitamix and the Blender stick, better than expected for greens like Celery and Kale and even solid things like Beet. Don't pack it too tightly because it will report being stuck if the blade can't spin up freely. Once it turns it makes quick work of the ingredients.There are a few small "room for improvements" and one bigger one. The cap for example is designed well for its function, but not for cleaning. Lots of crooks and nannies in there that need lots of work if you happen to not rinse it right away.Another small thing that could be improved is the charge display. According to the manual, it is green when charged and red when it needs a charge. However, mine turns red right after disconnecting the charger. It blends a while before it stops, but I would like to see a 0/25/50/75/100% indicator, or a digital percentage. Just a red light doesn't do a fairly pricey blender justice.The big thing for me is the dedicated 110V charger. This makes it more challenging to charge on the road. Of course, charging may not be necessary if the batteries hold strong, but I think it would be good to be able to charge this via regular USB-C or at least a 12V. Also good luck if you loose the charger.We'll see how it holds up long term and if there will be replacement parts (like the container/blade assembly) if that should be needed.

5/5 Stars – Perfect Blender for Life On the Go!I’ve been using the Ninja Blast Portable Blender for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed. It’s compact, easy to carry, and surprisingly powerful for its size. I’ve used it to make protein shakes, smoothies, and even blend up fruits with ice—and it handles it all like a champ. The USB-C charging is super convenient, and the battery lasts me several uses before needing a recharge.What I love most is how easy it is to clean—just a little water and soap, blend for a few seconds, rinse, and done. It’s perfect for taking to the gym, work, or even when I’m traveling. The design is sleek and the lid doubles as a sip top, so I can drink straight from the blender without making a mess.If you’re looking for a reliable, portable blender that actually gets the job done, Ninja Blast is 100% worth it!
