Keep reading for our full product review.īlendJet makes cordless, battery-operated, personal-size blenders that are designed for convenience, power, and portability. Last night, we tried guacamole but decided we prefer the chunkier texture of just mashing it up with a fork (but it would make a nice, smooth hummus).We purchased the BlendJet 2 so our reviewer could put it to the test.
We made Oreo milkshakes, frozen coffee drinks, margaritas, and bourbon cocktails. We especially liked the sangria, as the frozen fruit gave it a great texture without diluting the taste. Also note that it won’t blend while it’s being charged.īlendJet offers a recipe book for $19.95, and they also have a lot of recipes on their website. The circle will flash red and then purple if there’s zero charge it will be half-purple half-blue at 50% charge and it’s solid blue at a full charge. The only way to check your power level is to plug it in. My recommendation is to recharge your BlendJet 2 portable blender after every two smoothies so you don’t lose power mid-smoothie (like I did). In the XL jar, I got 19 blends that yielded three drinks. With the small cup, I got 5 drinks and 19 blends out of it, but it died mid-way through the last smoothie, and I needed to stop and charge it up before I could finish making the fifth drink. It should last for 15 blends or more, but note that it may take you several blends to make your smoothie, and then one or two to clean it with water and dish soap, so 15 blends does not mean 15 smoothies. It may also stop working if the power runs out. You can lock it by holding down the power button until the purple circle flashes three times, and then unlock it by holding down the button until the blue circle flashes three times. Sometimes the jar would come a little loose when blending, so the flashing red light would let us know that we needed to screw in the base so the arrows were aligned again.īe aware that if you’re in blend mode and the BlendJet 2 portable blender suddenly stops working, you may have accidentally locked it. So to use the big jar, which yields about two servings, there’s a lot of flipping, shaking and tilting before it’s fully blended. With the XL jar, we’d get constant notifications (with the power button turning solid red) that the blades were blocked. When I use frozen fruit, I put that at the top, figuring it’s the same hardness as ice.
#Blendjet 2 portable blender manual
To get a better blend, the instruction manual included a layering guide that’s really helpful: To clean it before your first use, blend with water and a drop of dish soap, and then rinse out the jar. Once charged, you screw in the base and make sure the arrows align. When you first get your BlendJet 2 portable blender, you need to charge it for one hour or until you see a solid blue circle. There’s an in-between size, too: the large jar (20 oz) that retails for $15.95. We also tested the extra-large jar (32 oz), which you buy separately for $29.29, and came in a custom foam container.
The standard BlendJet comes with a 16-oz jar. We picked galaxy metallic and were immediately impressed with how sharp it looked, right out of the box.
The BlendJet 2 portable blender comes in 30+ colors and patterns, from plain black to Disney characters to Lisa Frank tie-dye. Charging time: 1.5 for a full charge last 15+ blends.Charging: USB charger (wall plug not included).
