My wife and I bought this so that we could make our own smoothies while traveling. We have another cordless blender made by Cuisinart that is okay but it's fairly loud and is barely powerful enough to make a smoothie if the fruit is frozen. This Ninja blender is no louder (as measured by my ears, not an actual sound meter) but has significantly more power. At a glance it appears to take up no more space. Read more

Have had mixed smoothies, protien shakes, milkshakes. All with shaved/crushed ice. Would not recommend large ice cubes or even medium size. Tends to have an issue with anything larger tham small cubes. My go-to shake is so simple: 6oz fat free milk, half scoop vanilla protien powder, orange fat free sherbet to just below the "max" line, topped off with crushed ice to just above the max line, and select "crush". Fantastic orange creamsicle smoothie! Cleanup is a breeze. 8oz warm water with a drop or two of dish detergent, select 'blend', rinse out with warm water. Take to work, or bike trip, anywhere around house, good to go. Only 2 pitfalls: charge does not last as long as I would like. I get 2 shakes and it needs charged, will not make it to a 3rd round. And while it has great power for its size, cannot handle medium to larger ice cubes, or a dense/thick shake and will lock up or overheat. Overheating is the worst, and will not operate for 30 to 60 minutes. Beyond that, experiment with its limits in mind, and it has been a great portable blender for home or on the go! Read more

Bought as a gift for a very fickle husband who was drinking protein shakes as part of his marathon training. He'd been using the metal spirals in a shaker cup and drinking lumpy, powdery shakes, not enjoyable. We have a Ninja Twisti, but he felt using that and the clean up was too much effort in the morning. He also hates accumulating gadgets, so this felt a risky purchase. Thankfully after a week of use, he was thrilled with it, his drinks taste great though he is still finding the powder gets stuck to the sides and ingredients have to be added in a specific order to reduce that. He started drinking twice as many protein shakes, and, in between, having iced drinks in it. He was quite frustrated that it doesn't charge itself (!), but he gets a around a week's worth of daily drinks between charges (and now remembers to charge it!). It's easy to clean and compact. I did think he would take it to work to have his drinks there, but he says it's too noisy to use in the office and it doesn't have anywhere to store powder like the plastic cups do. Now his training has stopped, he's not using it so much, but I think it's only a matter of time before our teenager purloins it for their milkshakes and cocoas... Ninja is a very reliable brand, this is my third Ninja product (Twist, airfryer) and I continue to recommend them. Read more

I recently got my hands on the Ninja Blast Max Portable Blender, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my daily smoothie routine. First, the sleek and compact design makes it easy to carry around. Whether I’m at home, in the office, or even on a trip, this blender fits perfectly in my bag without taking up much space. The Twist & Go feature is simply fantastic. It allows me to blend my smoothies directly in the cup I’ll be drinking from, saving me time and reducing the cleanup. The blending power is impressive for such a small device. It effortlessly crushes ice, frozen fruits, and even tough veggies, resulting in silky smooth drinks every time. One of the standout features for me is the battery life. A single charge lasts several uses, so I don't have to worry about constantly recharging it. The portable design and long battery life make it perfect for on-the-go lifestyles. Cleaning the blender is a breeze, too. The detachable parts are easy to rinse off, and the dishwasher-safe cup is a huge plus. The build quality is solid, and it feels durable enough to withstand regular use. Overall, I highly recommend the Ninja Blast Max Portable Blender to anyone looking for a convenient and robust solution for making smoothies and shakes on the go. It’s a fantastic investment for a healthier and more convenient lifestyle. Read more

If you end up getting a Portable Blender definitely get the Ninja Max portable blender, any other size is definitely too small. I feel it’s just the right size for personal use but if making smoothies for more than one person than just buy a regular ninja. Definitely a little expensive for the size. But it crushes ice and blends smoothies really well. Only thing I hate is you have to immediately charge it after each use. Read more

This blender is amazing and makes the best smoothies. It’s small so it does not take up much counter space and it’s also very portable. Love the rubber handle which is easy to clean. I use this at least once a day and charge it once a week. Read more

Friendly use, fashionable, easy to tote to & from your destinations, holds a charge, easy to clean, safe to use. etc. I would encourage you all to buy it for yourself or someone who is working not just traveling. College students are gonna love it since they study late into the night. Why pay for expensive drinks out when you can make your own healthy drinks for you and a friend. The colors are great. Rain or shine its the perfect gift for anybody. Of course with supervision kids learn to eat healthy. I can't say enough about this product. Excellent for seniors especially when they have a particular taste buds or finicky eaters especially when traveling or eating out. Great when traveling with kids to make snow cones. Great to have when someone is not feeling well. This makes a fast fun fresh delicious ready to drink on the spot and will put a smile on someones face. I highly recommend. Read more

This blender is great the smoothie blend is excellent as well as the blend mode and crush mode and it operates just like a full sized blender that can fit in your gym bag or backpack. Read more

The design of this blender stands out because it separates the blades from the battery pack or base, addressing a common issue with many portable blenders. In most blenders, the blades are directly attached to the base, which houses the electrical connections, motor, and battery pack. This configuration poses a challenge when cleaning the blades, as water exposure to the electrical components can lead to damage or malfunction, reducing the product’s longevity and potentially posing a safety hazard. In contrast, this blender’s design isolates the blade assembly from the electrical connections. This allows the user to clean the blades thoroughly without risking water exposure to the base, making the blender safer and more durable. Additionally, by designing the blender this way, it also allows for easier blade maintenance, as users can focus on cleaning the blades without worrying about protecting the sensitive electrical parts. The separation ensures more hygienic cleaning, which is crucial when dealing with food and beverages. This design feature enhances user convenience, safety, and durability, addressing a significant flaw seen in other portable blenders where improper cleaning might lead to damage or malfunction over time.

I like everything about this blender. Powerful, not excessively loud compared to some, easy to operate. Blends very well. Programmed modes useful. Easy cleanup. Like the integrated bottom over the smaller Ninja which requires a screw on cover to be added after blend. This larger unit is super convenient especially on the go. Larger capacity is a good thing too. Only improvement I would like to see is USB C charging vs the dedicated “wall wart” power supply it comes with to charge. I understand they probably made the charge power supply choice due to voltage of the battery pack in this more powerful unit. Still, I think the technology exists to make it USB C chargeable. Not a deal breaker for me. Good battery capacity and everything else is so good! Read more
