How to choose a mini blender: TOP-7 of the best devices and their technical characteristics + customer reviews

1Most of the modern residents of megacities can not imagine their life without blenders.

Devices, whose name means “mixer”, appeared in 1922 and was liked by bartenders, and with their light hands became popular among ordinary people. In 1935, stationary models, as we are used to seeing them, saw the light of day.

In addition to knives at the bottom of the bowl, intended only for mixing, they learned to chop vegetables and mash.

Mini blenders (“to go” or sports) appeared later and immediately attracted athletes and travelers.

These small mobile devices are convenient to take with you - they can easily fit in a backpack or travel bag.

Why are you needed?

The maximum weight of the device is 2 kg. The bowl of the mini blender is small - no more than 600 ml. This is the only difference from the older full-length brothers.

Mini blender happens:

  • Submersible. Multifunction device. Its only minus is that you won’t step back while cooking, because you need to hold the hand blender in your hand. However, he will cope with a variety of products, including hard ones - nuts, meat, and will be able to crack ice.
  • Stationary. Suitable for making cream soup, cocktail or smoothie. Not capable of more, but it is not required of him. A tangible plus is the self-cleaning function. Water is poured into the bowl and the start is pressed. The blender will wash himself, it remains to pour dirty water and wipe the bowl dry.

The purpose of the mini blender is to prepare small portions:

  • baby food;
  • creamy and mashed soups;
  • smoothie
  • cocktails.

On sale you can find mini blenders with a portable bottle - made a diet smoothie or a protein shake and took it with you. The container has a convenient lid - it perfectly protects against leakage, in addition, it is convenient to drink from it.

How to choose and what to pay attention to?

Recommendations are exactly the same as when choosing a full-size model:

  1. Manufacturer. Do not take the device, the name of which you see for the first time. And no matter where it is produced, in Russia, China or Slovenia.
  2. Guarantee. The shorter it is, the faster the device will fail. On the other hand, if this happens before the warranty expires, it will be possible to exchange it for a similar one and use the new one again.
  3. Power. Mini models are usually low-power. They don’t need anything special, and any device can handle soft products like berries, herbs, cottage cheese or stewed vegetables. If possible, choose a device with a power of 300 watts or more. They will be able to crack ice.
  4. Bowl material. Plastic or glass. Be sure to smell the bowl if it is plastic. If the smell is unpleasant, refuse the purchase. Glass capacity is much better. But if you plan to take the device with you, you need to be careful.It is very easy to break glass, and such a mini blender will cost more.
  5. Knife material. Choose steel. But the price of such a device will be higher.
  6. Submersible nozzles. The more of them, the smarter the device. Possible options - a mill, a bowl for cutting. Also among the additional elements may be a measuring cup, storage containers, travel bottles, thermal cups.
  7. Price. Do not chase cheapness, but mindlessly not overpay. The most reasonable price for a mini blender with an optimal set of functions is around 2,000-2,500 rubles.
Handle the glass bowl with extreme care.

Having broken it, you can send it to a junk and a blender - you can’t buy a spare one, they simply don’t.

    After consulting with the store manager last year, I chose the Bosch MMBM 401 for myself, since I am satisfied with its technical characteristics and the price is not expensive, and the manufacturer is well-known. And now, for a year now, this compact device has been an assistant in my kitchen. There have never been problems with him, I like the fact that you can even crack ice.
