The short answer

Breville Fresh & Furious
3 sources2 derived$199.95as of Aug 1

America's Test Kitchen names the Breville Fresh & Furious its best midpriced blender, and it is a smoothie specialist: the 60-second green-smoothie program makes some of the best green smoothies TechGearLab has tasted. Soft fruit blends beautifully, though berries can leave grit, and the machine is not meant for nut butter or grinding. At around $200 with presets and an LCD, it is the features-per-dollar pick for people focused mainly on smoothies.

Strengths
  • — Dedicated 60-second green-smoothie program produces "one of the best green smoothies" TechGearLab tasted
  • — America's Test Kitchen's best midpriced pick at about half the flagship's cost
  • — Five speeds plus auto-clean and ice-crush programs on a clear LCD
Watch-outs
  • — Berry and oat smoothies can leave a slightly gritty texture
  • — Not built for nut butter or grinding — it's a smoothie specialist
  • — Lid can pressurize during blending and be hard to remove

NutriBullet Pro 900
Ranked #4 in Best Blenders for Smoothies
NutriBullet Pro 900
3 sources2 derived$77as of Aug 1

The NutriBullet Pro 900 is the best personal blender for smoothies: a compact bullet around $90 that turns leafy greens into a silky-smooth puree and doubles as a travel cup. RTINGS scores it 8.1/10 for single-serving smoothies and calls it "an excellent choice for smaller batches" of nut butter and dips. It is single-serve only and not built for ice or hot blending. For a solo daily smoothie, the value and convenience are hard to beat.

Strengths
  • — Blends leafy greens into a silky-smooth puree on single servings, per RTINGS (8.1/10 single-serve smoothie score)
  • — Compact bullet design fits in a cabinet — no counter real estate needed
  • — Blend-and-go: jar doubles as a travel cup with a to-go lid
Watch-outs
  • — Single-serve only — 32 oz jars, no family-size batches
  • — Not meant for crushing ice or hot blending
  • — No speed control or presets — you press and hold

Derived means the reviewer published no score, so one was inferred from their written verdict. Everything else is a number the publisher printed. How we rank.

How they stack up

Breville Fresh & Furious

The smoothie specialist: its green-smoothie program out-tastes the Ninja BN701 on greens, but it leaves more grit on berries than the Vitamix 5200 or Vitamix Explorian E310 and isn't built for the heavy-duty work those handle. Pricier than the Ninja BN701, cheaper than the Vitamix picks.

NutriBullet Pro 900

The single-serve specialist: silkier than the Ninja BN701 on small portions and far more compact than any pick here, but it can't match the family-size capacity of the Ninja BN701 or the ice-crushing and hot-blend versatility of the Vitamix 5200 and Vitamix Explorian E310.
