Mueller Heavy-Duty Personal Blender for Shakes and Smoothies with a 15 Oz Travel Cup and Lid, Juices, Baby Food, Portable Blender & Food Processor, Turquoise

This is the perfect personal blender and it is powerful. I blew my first blender motor by holding the button to blend too long too many times on my first blender that I purchase I did not know what I was doing so I bought a second one. I make sure I fill almost to the top or just enough to put the top on with added water or milk push the blender button and hold it for 3 to 4 seconds let off and push the button again multiple times and everything will be blended perfectly. I love this blender. you just have to know how to use it properly.

After buying and returning two other, more expensive rechargeable brands, I decided to take a chance on this corded one. I'm both glad and sorry I did. I'm glad that it works beyond my expectations; easily producing excellent smoothies. I'm sorry because I didn't buy the slightly more expensive version that comes with an extra travel cup. The downside of using the blender cup for travel is that I'm lugging around the bottom part containing the blades that's permanently attached. Not only does this make it more difficult to drink every drop, it creates a cleaning problem. The instructions say to clean the cup ASAP after use by adding a little watter and dish soap and running the blender a few seconds, then rinse. But when on the go, I have neither the motor base nor any dish soap. The solution was easy enough, I guess. I just pour the smoothie into a travel mug so I can clean the blender immediately after use. This is probably a better solution, as the travel cup that comes with the more expensive version appears to be uninsulated. While that solution is easy enough, be advised there is no way to actually get to the blades, as they are part of the permanent base of the cup. That cost a star, as I'm worried something might damage one of the four blades or get stuck on one, like a nut, for example. Also, the instructions say to add no more than four, one inch square ice cubes. I actually had to buy a dollar store cheapie ice tray just to make chilled smoothies using some of the 10 recipes the excellent manual has in the back. The manual, by the way, is well illustrated and in English, not a translation. The manual lists the manufacturer with a CA address, but one reason I decided to try this blender is because the name suggests it is a German company. The manual confirms this, because the U in the name on the cover has the two dots above it as is common in German. Would I buy this again? Probably not. This was my first experience making or even drinking smoothies. I didn't realise that smoothies tend to contain a lot of foam, so I'm out of smoothie before I'm satisfied. My next one will be at least a 24 ounce one. But for the price, and as long as you don't want a big gulp size smoothie, this inexpensive blender is a gem.

I didn't give this 5 stars for 3 flaws I believe it has 1) if used consistently regularly (1/2 times a day) eventually the lid begins not to seal/sit properly. 2) there is no way to completely disassemble for a thorough cleaning 3) Ive checked several places ( Including the manufacturer'a website) and you don't seem to be able to buy additional/replacement cups without replacing the entire assembly. Great tool if you want to see if you'll use it, at a good price point! I have gotten more than my monies worth out of it. But, not necessarily for long-term everyday use.

This little powerhouse handles both fresh and frozen ingredients like a champ. I’ve been whipping up smoothies packed with greens and fruits in no time, which makes my breakfast feel like a treat rather than a chore. One of my favorite features has to be the portable blending jar. It’s so convenient! I can blend my drink straight into the jar and toss on the custom drinking lid—no extra cup necessary. And since it’s made from food-grade, non-toxic material, I feel good about what I'm sipping. Plus, it holds up to 2 cups, which is more than enough to keep me satisfied without having leftovers. The one-touch power blending is another highlight. I love that it’s simple enough for anyone to use. With just a press of a button, I can make smoothies, sauces, or even baby food without the hassle of complicated settings. The four stainless steel blades are super sharp and do a fantastic job of pulverizing everything quickly, which means smooth consistency every time.

So far I really like this blender. I can use frozen or fresh fruit and I don't have to cut it up in small pieces or anything. I just tap on the button a few seconds at first to get it to start cutting everything up or to pulse, then I hold the button down to finish the blending. Takes less than a minute. Its also easier on your blender to do it that way if your not cutting things into to pieces. It's easier on the motor and also the pieces around your cutting blades, especially if your using ice. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and I'm glad I chose this one. It's the perfect size for what I was needing and the price was good at time of purchase.

Good deal

After 3 years it finally broke! It served me well. For the most part. Did blend better with stuff where it wasn't too thick. I enjoyed using it while I had it. However it's time to spend more money and upgrade to a stronger portable blender.

It's motor is really loud!! Easy to use and clean.

I love it! I wasn’t sure because I had a bullet unit for along time! But it’s value $ and gutsy performance was a nice surprise! I would recommend it! ( tip) before first use after washing / lines by measurement area) HAVE to be lined up before it will pulse!!! Don’t think, that’s it’s NOT working!) Enjoy! 😎

This blender was smoking from the air vent and left black marks all over my kitchen bench. It was faulty after arriving really late. The electrical outlet points are not Australian standard either.

It’s exactly as described and for me with an 18-inch kitchen counter, it is ideal. I use it ever day and have enjoyed tremendously so far. I make sure to wash it immediately after use using warm not hot soapy water and dry it right away. It has stayed “new” that way. I have used milk, a little ice cream, lots of cut-up fresh fruit, yogurt, etc and whiz it around for just a few seconds and it is perfect. I just love it and I would highly recommend it for preparing one portion at a time.

Al principio no le tenía mucha fe al producto pero vaya que me sorprendió su funcionamiento y su facilidad para trabajarlo. Muy recomendable!!

My son wanted this for milkshakes and such. So far has been perfect for easy to blend things such as ice creams and yogurts. No faulty parts, no lack of power, no missing parts. Exactly as described. Also an added bonus offer for a free milk frother in the box.
