Ninja - Blast 18 oz. Portable Blender - Passion Fruit Purple

This Ninja portable blender is simply amazing. Whether you’re travelling or want a quick smoothie, this blender will make your life easy. Want to get your kids to eat their fruits and veggies, this portable blender will easily blend everything you put into it, and the kids won’t even know what hit them. In this review, I will explain my thoughts on this portable Ninja blender. To start, I thought Ninja did a great job with the “box” and overall presentation. Well, it’s more of a cylinder but it is made with some strong and durable cardboard that can be reused for storage of items or art projects. The blender is rechargeable and a USB-A to USB-C cable is included. There is no charging brick, but I was able to charge the blender with my phone charger. The blender comes in three parts: a lid with a spring release button, a hollow blending vessel (note that there is no bottom), and the motor base. The blending vessel will always need to be connected to the motor base since the vessel is hollow all the way through. It does feel a bit awkward at first when drinking out of it since the weight of the bass acts like a counterweight anytime you drink. Fortunately, I eventually did get used to it. The blender is straightforward and easy to use too but Ninja does recommend you place ingredients into the blender in a certain order for the best results. I followed through with this and 100% confirm that your drinks will come out a lot smoother. I attached an image of the recommended way to place ingredients into the blender. Also, if you dislike the loud sounds from a typical blender, you will enjoy this one since this is undoubtedly the quietest blender I have ever used. I was able to have a normal conversation with my family while this was running in the background, if that tells you anything. If you have kids or adults with intrusive thoughts, there is no need to worry about them turning the motor base on without the vessel. Ninja built a safety feature into the motor base where it will not turn on if the base isn’t flush with the vessel. The light indicator on the base will also flash white. This blender is easy to clean too, so your kids will be able to help with the dishes if needed. ;) Overall, this is an excellent portable blender. Ninja always delivers with their kitchen products and this one is no different. The blender does everything you need it to do and best of all, it is easy to use, convenient, and portable! If you are in search of a portable blender that will get the job done, I wholeheartedly recommend you give this one a shot!

Love the idea of having the option of making a smoothie on my lunch hour at work!
