Ninja Blast Max Portable Blender, Twist & Go, 22oz, Lavender, BC251LD

I am a die-hard ninja shark customer and I have been purchasing products from the company for years. I have yet to have purchased the product from Ninja that has not met my standards. First the quality and the value for the money are there this product is completely worth it I use it every single day. It is versatile I'm able to make my simple dreams which are just maybe watering powder or milk and protein powder without it being any chunks love or anything stuck to the sides it has a really strong motor. But even when I made things with fruit or I have to add ice the fruit and the ice are always blended into a smooth consistency because the blades are phenomenal. I have even used it to make alcoholic beverages with my sister and they come out perfect every time we usually make moonshine milkshakes with the Ninja blender and it's always creamy well mixed and a good time. The lid functionality is everything that I have ever wanted from a handheld blender. The lid locks into place it is very sturdy and you're able to put it in your bag without it leaking it doesn't leak the button that you press to open the mouth spout is very strong and functional it does keep you from having to worry that the lead is going to open unnecessarily in your bag. The material is sturdy and of good quality and I don't have any fears that it will break or need to be replaced anytime soon. The material feels very smooth and sturdy in the hand and I also like the fact that you can strap the cup to your bag with the handle that is provided. It's also very easy to clean I haven't had any issues with anything being stuck in the inside to where I can't get it loose and clean it fully. I've also not had any problems with any mold growth in the cracks or crevices of the blender body at all.

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!

Excellent Portable Blender with Great Power The Ninja Blast Max is an impressive portable blender. It’s powerful for its size, blends smoothly, and the Twist & Go design makes it easy to take anywhere. The build feels solid, the battery lasts well, and cleanup is quick. A reliable, convenient blender that delivers strong performance on the go.

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.

Just the right size for one, convenient to use and store in a small space. Blends well, for a smoothie. Great if you take it with you, the office, camping, its portable once its charged. Nice quality blender. I add a little ice, small pieces are best with fresh fruit works well.

I love this little bugger! I’ve used it every day since getting it and it’s one of those things that you consider ordering a “backup” to be sure that you have another one when the life of this one is over. I’ve researched how to optimize its lifetime. That’s how much I really love it. I use the “crush” feature every morning and it’s the most smooth drink I’ve made - and I’ve tried several different brands of smoothie makers. It’s so easy, the most convenient to use right from the base, actually fits my hand nicely, and never clumps so that’s some great power in this little gizmo. I’ve taken it with me for long work shifts and it goes in to my bag just great. Wonderful “on the go” or on the counter. Can’t say enough good things about this Ninja. It’s simply amazing and I’m wowed because it’s so nicely priced for such a great appliance.

Love the three settings, crush, blend, smoothie. Works as described. Does not leak and the materials are holding up just fine. Holds a charge but generally can only use two of the settings in a row before it needs to be recharged. Charging doesn't seem to take a lot of time. Would have liked a little bigger container but that is not a deal breaker. The price seems reasonable for the product. Do not take this product out of the home so not sure about its portability but I really cannot imagine taking this to and from home without taking up some space in my bag.

This is my best Amazon buy of the year. It’s so easy and quick to use and clean. Blends/crushes ice and frozen foods easily. I am pleased with my purchase! Power, quality, easy to use and comfortable to hold on to.

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.
