Pro+ Ice Crushing Portable Blender (17oz)

I use this almost everyday! It’s easy and and you can actually crush ice!!. Makes a great smoothie

I recently got the BLENDi blender and so far I’m really impressed. I love how portable and wireless it is—it makes it super easy to blend my shakes anywhere. For its size, it blends pretty well, and it’s convenient for quick, on-the-go smoothies. I’m still fairly new to using it, so I haven’t tested how long the battery lasts after many charging cycles, but so far it’s been reliable.

I have been using my original Blendi a few times a week for a protein drink. It’s so simple to use, and I recently purchased one for a friend. Great invention, as it’s so convenient.

So lets set some expectations here. You arn't going to be dicing through things like you are in a bullet infomercial with this thing, but that's also not what you are going to want this for.

Pros: Compact, takes up almost no space. Super easy to use. It will blend ice and frozen fruit pretty easy. Softer fresh vegies are also no issue. Cleans up is no problem. I love the fact that for a product like this, you are basically blending in your own little water bottle. Battery powered so easy to take with. As long as you clean and assemble it correct, it won't leak at all.

Cons: Much lower powered then your average blender. You're running of a battery so this should be something you already know, but some people expect miracles. Because of this if you are going to use a hard root vegie (I tested carrots) you need to basically dice them to less then half an inch to keep them from jamming this up. Even then, don't over do it. Apple, and pair it seemed to chew right up though. Because I'm a weirdo, I also tried a potato, which seemed to have the same issue as the carrot. Battery life. You get maybe three smoothies out of this per charge. For most of what I tried, to get the right blend you have to run the timer twice. You might be able to squeeze out a fourth... but don't expect to put anything hard in that one.

TLDR: really good for what it was designed for, don't mistake it for a full size blender and you will be fine.

I bought this for my son as a Christmas gift. He's going to college in the Fall of 2026 and we're all giving him things he'll need for his dorm room. All the media I've researched and the initial time we've had with the blender this Christmas seems to indicate good design, materials and quality. We won't know for sure until he uses it at school. For now anyway, he appreciates the look of the unit and the potential usage that can help him out while he's there. So far, so good. I hope to make a follow-up review later in Aug-Sep 2026.

So I haven’t used yet as I bought as Christmas stocking stuffers. I can say all my kids were excited to receive. Perfect size for an on the go protein shake. And they all loved their colors. Can’t wait to use it!
