Ninja Blast Portable Blender, Cordless,18oz Vessel, Metallic Blue, BC151BM

I was so happy with this blender when I first got it to replace my generic made in Germany personal blender that was growing mold under the seals and didn’t blend very well. Well, I’m not happy anymore. Every time I have gone to use my Ninja, it has needed to be charged. I literally charged it yesterday with my smoothie in it, got it to full battery capacity, ran it once to blend my smoothie, and a second time to clean it. Now it’s dead this morning and charging with yet another smoothie in it. I just want a reliable personal blender. Is that so much to ask? Update from a few days later: I charged it TWICE this morning because I knew I’d be using it tonight. IT’S DEAD! After two charges and not being used, it’s dead! And it’s not like I used this thing to death when I first got it either. I have used this blender maybe 9 times since I got it. I’m beyond disappointed. Ninja used to be a good brand. ***UPDATE TO THE UPDATE*** I registered my blender with Ninja after all of this nonsense, and then I reached out to support. I sent them videos of the issue and they gave me a case number and a phone number to call. I didn’t have to prove anything to them, they just told me they would have to send out a replacement and that I didn’t have to send mine back. I know that shopping for personal blenders is a NIGHTMARE AND A HALF, because they either don’t chop, don’t hold a charge, burn your house down, etc. If you’re going to take the risk to get one anyway, just go with this one. When it works, it pulverizes everything you put in it. When it doesn’t work, Ninja stands by their products and takes care of the issue. I’m updating my review to 3 stars, but if my replacement blender works, it’ll be 5 stars. Oh, and by the way, the customer service dude was really pleasant and spoke English. I was never transferred to India or anything like that. ******Hopefully Final Update****** So, I got my replacement blender from Ninja, and I love it! I use it about every other day, and I have only had to charge it four times now. It works wonderfully, but the only thing it sometimes struggles with is whole frozen strawberries. Don’t get me wrong, it can pulverize them. It just may take more than one blend cycle, which is fine when you have a blender that actually works, unlike the one I got from Amazon. I can finally wholeheartedly recommend this blender.

Got these about two weeks ago. They are awesome! I have been using my old nutribullet for the last 10+ years which works well but this is actually perfect for what I need. The container is the perfect size, 16oz. i am using it more for a smoothies, i am going to try to do shakes sometime soon. Pros of this product: Lightweight and portable. Cleans real easy. Nice sturdy base and container give it a great quality feel. Also the instructions and description of how to use the blender and what to look for as far as the indicator lights was very well laid out. The lid as well with the handle is also a big bonus not to mention the flip cap. Cons: the only minor thing for me is that when I make my smoothies using frozen strawberries and other frozen berries is that you will have to hit it for two 30 sec cycles to ensure the berries get completely blended and not form clumps. For me this is no huge issue just something I have discovered and if I have spend 1 min to blend my smoothies instead of 30 seconds, no big deal. I would also recommend buying the accessories cap for the bottom and cover for the blades that are offered through third party. If you do not want to haul around the whole blender with the blades these things work great! I highly recommend this product not for the price alone which for me you get your bang for the buck, but for the ease and versatility it offers for being able to take your favorite, smoothie, shake whatever to the gym or office.

In attempt to improve my health, I decided to include more fresh fruits and veggies in my diet. Since I'm not very fond of either, having smoothies seemed like the perfect solution. Scrolling through all of the blenders, most seemed like overkill. I only needed something to make one serving at a time, so a portable smoothie blender seemed like the way to go. I ordered the Ninja Blast Portable Blender last night and assumed it would take a week to arrive. It was delivered this morning. Awesome start. As for the blender itself, it works like a charm. Easy to use, just small enough so that it doesn't take up too much room in my tiny kitchen, creates the perfect portion for a single smoothie, and is very easy to wash. It's battery operated, charges via usb-c, and took about two hours to charge. Since I just got it, I don't know how many smoothies it will make on one charge. People say around 20, so we'll find out in a few weeks. The attachable cup used to blend is also used to drink out of, which is really very convenient. The only thing that could be improved is that the cup doesn't have a bottom cap, so if you don't want to pour it into another cup, you have to leave the base attached while you drink. Not a problem, since it's small and relatively light, but it would still be nice to have a bottom cap for the cup so that it can be removed and used as a normal cup without the base. Other than that, this is a great little blender and I'm glad I purchased it.

I am blown away by this Ninja personal portable blender. I own a large tabletop Ninja blender but it is just so incredibly loud, it hurts my ears to use. Plus, who wants to use a huge blender for a single serving smoothie and have to clean up the entire mess before work? That, in addition to feeling bad using a blender as loud as a jet engine at 8am with a roommate 10 feet from the kitchen, led me to this blender. Right off the bat I was worried that it would be too large to comfortable carry with the base, but that is not the case at all. It is only as tall as my 18 ounce Yeti, and only slightly wider. It’s compact, but not so small that you won’t be able to fit all of your ingredients for a personal smoothie (assuming you don’t drink massive smoothies). It feels really quality too. The base is solid and has some weight to it. The plastic “cup” is pretty thick and also has a bit of weight to it which is nice. The “ribbing” is only on the external for aesthetic purposes and does not influence performance. Opening the cap to the drink position feels really sketchy, but I haven’t had any issues. You open it and then essentially snap it down into a locked positions so that it doesn’t fall onto your face when sipping your smoothie, but snapping it into that position feels like you’re breaking the cap. Again, no issues yet for me but it just feels wrong applying that pressure to a plastic cap. In my video, I was worried I would be doing the product an injustice by not filling to the “Min Liquid” line, and additionally by over filling the container slightly past the “Max Fill” line. I loaded the blender with a small splash of water, maybe 2.5-3 ounces (even though it says 6 ounces is the minimum liquid), added a cup of Chiobani zero sugar yogurt, a medium banana, and a whole cup of frozen fruit that contained strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries. I expected that the blender would not blend well given that I did not have enough liquid and technically filled beyond the max fill line. To my COMPLETE shock, the smoothie was fully blended by the end of a SINGLE 30 second blend cycle, without any shaking to aid in the blending. Ninja recommends shaking the blender while it runs to help everything blend, but that wasn’t even necessary. Some people claim that 2 blends is necessary for fully blended smoothies which, sure, might be necessary if you have mostly frozen fruit. Even then, an 30 extra seconds with a blender this quiet is nothing. In such a tiny device, is incredible to me. It’s incredible to be able to put such a strong motor in such a small, portable device. Set realistic expectations for this blender and you will not be disappointed. If you expect to make enough smoothie for 2 or more people with this device, it’s not for you. If you expect to be able to blend all “dry” ingredients without adding a bit of of liquid, this likely is not for you. If you expect this to blend with the power of a $400 Vitamix that is 5-7 times larger, this is likely not for you. But, if you’re looking for an incredible personal blender to make single serving smoothies on the go, this is for you and you should buy it as soon as you can. I regret not buying it earlier! It’s also great for homemade sauces/dressings. I’ve made homemade chipotle adobo salad dressing with it and it came out fantastic. I’ve also made low calorie Alfredo sauce out of cottage cheese, milk, cream cheese, and Parmesan and it, again, worked wonderfully. Cleaning is fine but not a breeze. No matter what you’re going to end up getting the base wet and it feels sketchy getting water all over a battery powered motor base. I do my best to be extremely cautious when cleaning the base (I remove the cap, fill with water, blend to clean the blades, empty the cup, then remove it to focus on the blades/base) but water always ends up flowing down the base so I can see this causing problems if the charging port cover comes loose and water gets inside. Now for the cons: I’m rating this a 4/5 stars and the one star is lost to the battery life, lack of low battery warning, and inability to blend while charging. It claims that the blend light will turn yellow to signify that the battery is running low and then red for when it is in need of a charge/doesn’t have enough power to blend. That was not the case for me. I turned the blender on before making a smoothie to make sure it wasn’t reading low battery, put in my smoothie ingredients, hit the road to drive to work, and started to blend within 10 minutes. After running for about 5 seconds, the blender stopped and showed the red light signifying that the battery was dead and needed to be charged. Leading up to that blend, I’d maybe run about 6-8 blender cycles. There was also no yellow low battery warning light. It was really frustrating. I managed to find a charger once I got to work and to my surprise, the blender is unable to blend while charging. I don’t understand the reasoning for that, but it’s disappointing. I tried to run the blender again after about 7 minutes of charging and was able to get 1 full blend cycle in which was enough to fully blend the remainder of my now semi-thawed smoothie. Not the most delightful experience that day but I guess just charge it after every use and you should be able to avoid that situation. Overall I’m really satisfied with the product and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a personal smoothie blender or salad dressing/sauce blender!

I absolutely love my Ninja Blast Portable Blender! It’s become one of those items I never leave home without. I take it with me everywhere—whether I’m heading to work, the gym, traveling, or running errands. It’s lightweight, convenient, and powerful enough to make smooth, delicious drinks on the go. The battery life is great, and cleanup is quick and easy. If you’re looking for a portable blender that combines convenience and performance, this one is a fantastic choice.

I absolutely love this Ninja portable blender. It has impressive blending power for such a compact size and handles frozen fruit and ice much better than I expected. The Ninja Blast Technology really does create smooth, consistent drinks without leaving big chunks behind, which makes it perfect for smoothies, protein shakes, frozen drinks, and quick blends throughout the day. The 18 oz. capacity is a great size for a personal drink, and I like that I can blend and sip from the same vessel. The easy-open sip lid is very convenient, especially when I’m heading to work, the gym, or traveling. The hinged carry handle also makes it simple to grab and go without needing an extra bottle. Cleanup is another big plus. The lid and vessel are dishwasher safe, and the self-cleaning option with water and a drop of soap is quick and easy. I also appreciate that it comes in premium colors, so it looks stylish as well as functional. Overall, this blender is powerful, portable, easy to clean, and perfect for everyday use.

Been over 1 week and still haven't had to charge it, solid green light remains for a full charge. I've had zero issues blending frozen fruit or ice. Zero jams or chunks as I've seen others say they encounter. You need to use if properly with plenty of liquid before adding anything else. I have no tried any leafy greens bc I simply prefer to eat them. I premix my protien shake in the blender leaving enough room to add my frozen fruit, I only add ice when I'm out and about to give a fresh boost since it takes me forever to get this down after gastric bypass. No smell, minimal noise for a blender which i appreciate, speed is terrific and yes u can pulse by pressing the start and stop button repeatedly. The size is perfect for me but I see where the new ninja comes in handy with the space for added fruit if someone is looking for a larger beverage. Super sharp blades, zero leaks. I have taken this all over with me for a week now, I purchased a carry cozy along with a blade cap and bottom cup cap for if I needed to ever store in the fridge. It's super easy to clean, I add a pea size dish soap in the cup with water then let it blend to get the blades clean, clean the cup and rim around blades is simple using a brush. Air dry on a towel and tada.. i never let it sit dirty.

Product did not come with the vessel cap nor the blade cap; part D and E missing . Update on review: Initially gave this product 3/5 star bcuz it was missing the above. I called Amazon they sent a replacement but it was still missing the caps . I called the manufacturer and they agreed to send the caps. It arrived in 5 business days and took away my paranoid. If you don’t have the blade cap you are going to feel paranoid charging the motor without the vessel especially if you have kids. I had to charge the motor under my bed when I didn’t have the cap bcuz I was afraid it took just two press for my god baby to lose a finger. Now to the actual product * it is not noisy unless you blending ice and even then it’s reasonably noisy * it does a great job at blending; I blend ice, almonds, nuts, powder, frozen fruits, slushes etc. no problem * it blend in increments of 30 secs it usually takes me one half to two cycles to get my soothe perfect * battery life; the battery goes low quickly in about 4 blends . I overlook it because I can always plug it in or plug it in the car while traveling. If you are looking a portable blender that does the job get it but if you looking something for battery life I’d say no. * it’s not heavy; has a decent motor, vessel measurements goes up to 14oz, the max line say 18oz and there is like another 2 oz above that . * small enough to hold in the side of your bag and big enough to pour a full glass * I didn’t judge how long it take to charge but I charge it with my phone and it is usually full when I go to get them * I’ve had it for a week plus and I use it twice a day with no problem. I really like it and will keep using it and hopefully provide an update in a year. All and if you make morning smoothies on the go it’s perfect. It also make awesome slushes

Lo compre para mi hija y le encantó! Super funcional. Excelente artículo.

An absolute fantastic item. A must for all shakes lovers.

Excelente producto, licua muy bien y adicionalmente tomé precaución de picar los trozos pequeños. La carga me dura 5 molidas. Muy fácil de limpiar. Es muy útil para licuar batidos en cualquier lado y tomarlos recién molidos. Muy portátil

Compré varias (5 para ser exactos) como regalos de Navidad en pasado diciembre del 2024 y a la fecha (junio 2025) dos ya fallaron y no hay manera de hacerlas funcionar. Dónde o cómo se puede hacer válida la garantía??? Gracias!!!

Handy and very pretty
