Blast Max, Portable & Personal Blender + Twist & Go, Smoothie, Blend, Ice Crush, 3 Programs, Cordless, 22 oz removable Vessel, Dishwasher Safe, Leakproof, Grey, BC251GY

GAME CHANGER!! I absolutely LOVE my portable blender! In the AM it makes excellent protein smoothies and after work my 7pm cocktail has just hit a new level!! It’s so easy to clean. The different speeds work with my different uses, wink - wink. The size 22 oz is perfect for 2 frozen daiquiries and a great amount for my AM protein shake. It is very high quality. The price is fantastic for all the things you can use this for - Mini Bar, Camping - since it is portable. It last few a couple of uses on one charge. It is very easy to use. One touch while I walk to the car and it’s blended! GREAT PRODUCT so Glad I bought it!

I’ve been very happy with the Ninja Blast Max. It’s compact, easy to carry, and powerful enough to blend protein shakes, smoothies, and fruits without any issues. The battery life is solid and lasts through multiple uses before needing a recharge.

Best shaker cup I’ve ever had. I’ve had it almost a year now and it works perfect. Blends so smooth and easy. I was looking for a reliable strong blender cup for years going three so many cups and I finally found it here. It’s a blessing. It is the most powerful cup I’ve found and definitely worth the extra money compared to others.

Ninja has a reputation for producing great products for the home. Thus, I was looking forward to getting and using this blender. I love a smoothie. I have tried other blenders especially since for health purposes my provider has recommended 1-2 smoothies a day. First, it needs to be charged. The charger is packed inside the blender itself. Plug it in to charge before use. It does take a long time. Don't plan to use that day. The instructions are easy to read and follow. There is a little recipe booklet included along with a guide for what to add and the order to add the items. There is a good explanation about errors that can occur with the blender and how to correct them. The container itself has the markings for what you add - 6 ounces minimum of liquid. It has a max fill line. It comes with good instructions and a great guide for making your smoothies: liquid, fresh fruits, leafy greens, sticky stuff, and frozen fruits/ice. You are cautioned if you add more frozen fruits you may need to add more fluid. I added an 8 ounce protein supplement shake, a banana and a cup of frozen strawberries. It was so easy to use. Power on. When the white lights were on, pressed the smoothie button and let it do its thing. It will power on and off for a minute or more. Remove the vessel from the motor, push the button on the lid and drink. The texture was just right. You have the option of taking just the vessel or taking both the vessel and motor (for remixing later). I only have 1 complaint and it isn't worth subtracting a 1 star. It is an irritation though. It should have a standard USB-C charger instead of the one it has that is a dedicated charger. I do recommend the mixer because of the power, versatility, and ease of use. Great for smoothies, milkshakes and more. We made daiquiris and they turned out perfect.

I used it four times so far, and I thought it was pretty good. Some reviews state it couldn't do frozen fruit. Mine did frozen fruit at max capacity just fine. Another reviewer stated it melted in their dishwasher. Make sure you read the instructions on this one - instructions do state it isn't dishwasher drying safe. IMO - if it cannot be dried it isn't dishwasher safe in general. To me that is a strike - it is based on the notion that the customer is likely to damage the product enough, and these blenders are cheap enough that a customer would just buy a replacement. Especially considering most people won't check if it is dishwasher safe or not. Or - it is dishwasher safe with caveats which less people are likely to investigate. Other review state poor battery life... Time will tell in up to 6 weeks. I suspect the reviewers are letting the device die completely and then charging it back up, which isn't great for batteries. I just recharge it before putting it away... But storing batteries at 100% is bad too so we will see how well Ninja's internal battery management is. Based on the plug I'm going to assume it isn't good. This is the part that brings it from just about perfect to 1*. It is 2026. Why doesn't this BATTERY powered device charge from a USB connector? Why does it charge with an antiquated barrel jack? Why is the charging voltage 13 volts, or something ridiculously specific? Why not 15?? You need to regulate voltage to charge a battery anyway, so there isn't much difference between 13 and 15 volts at this point. Ninja definitely could have used a USB C receptacle. Based on my experience in engineering I suspect it was an executive cost cutting decision, or some old luddite who thinks barrel is better than USB C. It is one or the other ( or both ). There is no good excuse to not use USB C in modern times. Paired with power delivery it is objectively the superior solution. USB C could have a water resistant gasket. The barrel plug does not. The instructions state the base isn't supposed to get wet - and fair - but this is a product that will need to be cleaned EVENTUALLY. Using a barrel jack is simply a cost cutting method ( that does not save very much, mind you. Maybe $5 per unit at volume. Probably less ) that does not have water resistance and is designed to fail. This product is designed for you to lose the proprietary charger. This product is designed for you to make a mistake and damage the unit. This product is designed for you to buy another one. I can look past the USB C choice, ironically enough. In overall use it is actually a nice product. It feels small somehow because my AC blender is so much larger. But the same AC blender which is much louder and larger only has 2oz more of capacity. This review is meant to be critical to ideally, and hopefully have feedback makes its way back to Ninja. I still like it ( for now ), and hopefully it doesn't physically break. But this seeing a barrel jack in 2026 carries a similar feeling to getting a product with a USB micro connector. Like why does this still exist. It is a problem and I hate to see it. I do like some features specifically, though. Traditional blenders have a removable blade base, and the liquid is sealed via gasket. But that gasket is so far recessed that making sure it stays clean, especially during hand wash cycles is difficult. The gasket would need to be replaced frequently because it is hard to clean and sanitize. This blender does not have that problem. The blades are not removable, but integrated at the bottom of the container. I am concerned about keeping it clean. If it ever gets a dry crust on the bottom side of a blade you might be toast... But between then and now, I use a cup rinser to high pressure spray it with hot water and clean it that way. So far, so good. Being that the shape of the container is more efficient too, I can actually fit this blender container in my ( Delta ) cup rinser. I cannot do that with my older, plug in AC Ninja Blender. As a fun bonus, the lid also works well with the cup rinser too, so it is very easy to clean with the configuration I gave my home. Time will tell if I buy it again. If it survives for over a year, why not. But for now I am certainly on the fence if these would be good gifts to buy for others, if I am not sure I would buy it again.

So in love with this blender. The color, power, portability. It looks fancy, work great, blends frozen fruits, oats, nuts and all perfectly. Just finished my smoothie with almomd milk, frozen blue berries and banana, oats, chia seeds, peanut butter and cinnamon. Yummie!

Quick update after using it for a few weeks - the charging indicator works fine, showing green for a number of smoothies, turning red/orange after 7 of them. Probably needed a couple of cycles to calibrate the display. I took it camping a few times and it works just great. I love that the mixing container does double duty as a smoothie bottle rather than having to use yet another thing that needs to be cleaned. I also bought a sleeve/bag for the Blast Max which protects it well during travels. Allow charging via USB-C (or car 12V adapter), and perhaps simplify the cap somehow for easier cleaning, and it would be a clear 5/5. I am an avid Camper and a Health Nut. For my daily smoothie, I use a Vitamix 6300 which reduces anything in the container to a smooth mass. For camping, I had one of those hand-held blenders which do work but tend to clog up quickly and create more of a lumpy than a smoothie. Also, there is always the danger of getting splashed which isn't fun when you're dealing with beets. So I figured I'd give this a try to bring my camping smoothies up to the next level. Note that I pre-blend most of the ingredients in my Vitamix and then freeze the result into concentrated cubes for camping, add banana and frozen pineapple and some Chia, let it sit outside the freezer over night and blend it in the morning. Anyway, I haven't gone camping with the Blast yet, but I think it will work out just fine. I tested how many smoothies I get out of one battery charge and got 11 after the first charge. So blending twice per smoothie will make it last 5 days which is fine for me. The resulting smoothie is right in between the Vitamix and the Blender stick, better than expected for greens like Celery and Kale and even solid things like Beet. Don't pack it too tightly because it will report being stuck if the blade can't spin up freely. Once it turns it makes quick work of the ingredients. There are a few small "room for improvements" and one bigger one. The cap for example is designed well for its function, but not for cleaning. Lots of crooks and nannies in there that need lots of work if you happen to not rinse it right away. Another small thing that could be improved is the charge display. According to the manual, it is green when charged and red when it needs a charge. However, mine turns red right after disconnecting the charger. It blends a while before it stops, but I would like to see a 0/25/50/75/100% indicator, or a digital percentage. Just a red light doesn't do a fairly pricey blender justice. The big thing for me is the dedicated 110V charger. This makes it more challenging to charge on the road. Of course, charging may not be necessary if the batteries hold strong, but I think it would be good to be able to charge this via regular USB-C or at least a 12V. Also good luck if you loose the charger. We'll see how it holds up long term and if there will be replacement parts (like the container/blade assembly) if that should be needed.

Very very good blender excellent love it use it almost every day. Best portable blender People who have problems have not read the instruction it is important Learn to use it the right way take care of it It is the best and i had many diffrent blenders I am also a diet assistant an know much about fruit and vegetables you can use in the blender So treat it right and it will treat you right Enjoy thanks ninja for this product

Really nice, very easy to use and clean up. Perfect smoothies. Blends ice and frozen fruit easily. Has consistant results.

Muito bom. Vale a pena cada centavo!!

Great tool…expensive but it does the job

Práctico, fácil de lavar.

I charged the product several times, but it still struggled when blending. I charged total of 4 times but it could not finish 1 full cycle. very weak product, do not recommend.
