The Best Personal Blenders of 2026

• Power rating: 1,000 watts
• Capacity: 25-oz cup
• Dimensions: 5.5 x 6.1 x 8.5 inches

In classic Our Place fashion, the Splendor Blender is designed with aesthetics in mind, available in several of the brand's popular colorways. It's also marketed as a powerful personal blender, thanks to its 1000-watt motor and ultra-sharp blades.

During testing we were able to confirm the power of this machine, as it powered through nutty romesco sauce and blended through fibrous greens and frozen fruit with ease. We also love its spacious capacity for a personal sized blender, and the wide mouth that allowed for even cycling during blending.

However, we noticed the base migrating across our countertop while it was in use, meaning we couldn't leave it on its own as it blended. It also struggled to crush ice evenly, and the motor was very loud while in use.

But if you're loyal to the Our Place brand and want a blender that will match your Always Pan or Wonder Oven, the Splendor Blender will still get most common tasks accomplished.

Just like the full sized model, the Beast Mini boasts the same eye-catching design that you'd want to leave on your countertop. But this version has an even smaller capacity, making it even better for single-serve smoothies and one-handed sipping. The Mini model even comes with an accompanying straw which fits right in the canister.

While we love the design and convenience of the Beast Mini, its smaller design comes with a less powerful motor, which struggled with breaking down ingredients like nuts and chunks of ice during testing. But it whizzed through batches of smoothies with frozen fruit and leafy greens, so it may still fit the bill for regular, everyday blender tasks.

We also love that all of the accessories are dishwasher-safe, and you can even opt for a larger package of accessories that includes smaller blending vessels for things like sauces.

• Power rating: 700 watts

• Dimensions: 4 x 4 x 13 inches

Ninja’s most basic blender, the Fit was our original favorite. Its size and power are perfectly balanced in a Goldilocks-style sweet spot. We were impressed by its speed and strength when whipping up perfectly-smooth fruit smoothies, and by the relatively low noise level of its 700-watt motor.

While the blender’s design isn’t visually stunning, its black-and-silver base is sleek, unassuming, and small and light enough to easily store away. The blender’s containers have measurement marks and are similarly sleek and perfectly transportable—they even come with tight travel lids.

The Fit requires users to hold the container down or use the “pulse” method while blending, but this precaution works to prevent motor burn-out and means the blender will last longer than many of its counterparts. It’s so fast, you might not even notice.

• Power rating: 1,000 watts
• Capacity: 32-oz and 24-oz cups
• Dimensions: 12.52 x 11.13 x 6.81 inches

The NutriBullet Pro 1000 is the newer, more powerful version of the NutriBullet Pro 900. Its performance is a slight improvement over its predecessor, but not enough to top our list.

Its main advantage is how easy it is to use this blender—just plug it in and twist the blending cup to lock it in place. It’s powerful enough to make a smoothie with no visible chunks of fruit, but it also doesn’t have any additional settings. It has two blending cup sizes that also include to-go lids. Despite its relatively high wattage, it’s one of the quietest blenders we’ve tested.

Its size may be great for people with limited kitchen space. However, it’s difficult to hand wash because the blending cup is small and the base is narrow. The good news is, the blending cup and to-go lids can be popped into the dishwasher—just be sure to use the top rack.

• Power rating: 900 watts
• Capacity: 32-oz cup
• Dimensions: 12.01 x 7.72 x 15.94 inches

The NutriBullet Pro 900 is an upgrade in size and power from the basic NutriBullet. Whether you’re making a smoothie for yourself or to share with others, the blending cup certainly has enough room. There’s no “on” button—you just place the blending cup on top of the motor base, and twist it to lock. It takes about the same amount of time to make a smoothie as the Magic Bullet, and the texture was smooth with no visible lumps.

It’s also exceptionally stable while doing its job. Some blenders shift around during blending, but we didn’t have to hold down this blender to keep it in one place.

• Power rating: 600 watts
• Capacity: 24-oz cup
• Dimensions: 12.87 x 9 x 13 inches

The NutriBullet belongs to the same family as the Magic Bullet, and it’s essentially a larger, prettier cousin, branded for its special “nutrient extraction” capabilities. (Let's be real, it's just a blender). Still, it’s a great multi-purpose personal blender that ran through our tests without an issue. Unfortunately, its wide containers, heavy base, and flimsy travel attachments kept us from awarding it a higher spot on this list.

If you’re looking to make a lot of smoothies at once and drink it around the house, the NutriBullet is a good option—but if you plan to take the cups with you on the go day after day, you’d be better off with a more travel-friendly blender. And don't be fooled by its “nutrition extraction” claims—put the same ingredients in any of these top-performing blenders, and you'll get the same results.
