Best Blender For Smoothies And More
I'm constantly asked what is the best blender for smoothies? Since leafy greens and veggie smoothies are all the rage, people are tired of their "regular" blender leaving grit, strings and chunks - or worse yet, burning out.
If you also want a longer lasting and more versatile blender that can make soup, ice cream and grind grain - as well as make silky smooth smoothies - you're more likely interested in a power blender.
I have made it my mission to put blenders through performance tests so I can share the results with my tribe - so you can better decide which blender best fits your needs AND your budget.
Below you will find my most recommended blenders by budget. ALL CURRENT FURTHER REDUCED SALES ARE MARKED IN RED.
Occasionally there are some pretty amazing sales on other Vitamix blenders so be sure to check those out too.
Please Note: You can get The Complete Setup by getting 50% off a Blendtec Twister Jar with Promo Code BBTwister (includes free shipping!).
At the very bottom I have laid out all of the features my tribe has shared is most important to them, including links to see their more detailed reviews. (best viewed on desktop/laptop)
I hope this helps you with your health journey! 🙂
