   This Tribest Glass Personal Blender is the mini version of a very high dollar brand name big blender. It comes with three different sized tempered glass containers that attach upsidedown to the base. It has a dual set of stainless steel blades that make short work of the blending process. The base has suction cups on the four corners that hold it in place. It is small so it is perfect for individual servings. The whole thing comes apart for easy cleaning. It only took a few seconds to turn whole cashews into almost cashew butter. The housing is chrome colored plastic. All things considered, this is an excellent product!

   It blends well, jar is small, the upside-down jar is very inconvenient (i add things as i go, i dont blend ‘everytng. at once’, certain things needs less blending) so it is very messy to do that. ‘Right-side-up’ would be better (opening of the jar up)

   The three glass tumblers included with this blender are pretty thick, and I like that they are glass and not plastic. The lids are polypropylene plastic, but each one has a full silicone liner so that food does not contact the lid itself; the liner also acts as the gasket. The liners can be removed and washed. Attaching the blade assembly is a bit clunky because it requires handling the actual blade. The thickness of the silicone liner makes the assembly a tight fit, and it requires some fiddling to get it attached. Everything seals tight, and there are no leaks with either the blade assembly or the regular lids.The base has a good weight to it, but the knob is light weight and feels a bit flimsy. The actual power switch is on the back of the base. If you forget to turn it off, the blue lights flash constantly and it’s a good reminder. Noise level during blending is about average for this size blender.It tends to bog down if you try to blend something like a milkshake. Instructions recommend a short 50% duty cycle (use for 30 seconds, let cool for 30 seconds), indicating a small motor. But I’ve found that it works great for things like grinding spices such as pepper or dried chili peppers. The blades are relatively thin, and I would not try ice cubes or anything hard.Overall it’s a pretty good blender, but the lower power motor and thin blades limit it to lightweight use.

   We already have many kitchen appliances, and we didn’t need a large-capacity blender. So, we were looking for a diminutive appliance that wouldn’t consume much storage or counter space, and that we could use to make individual or small-portion mixed beverages. This product fits our need perfectly. We found it was almost completely intuitive to use this blender, only glancing at the picture sequence in the operating manual to confirm we had connected the blade unit properly. For safety reasons, some users might not like that the containers are a glass product, but we prefer glass rather than plastic, because it’s easy to clean and doesn’t look scrubby and cloudy over time. To the credit of the product-designers, product safety is enhanced by the rubber feet at the bottom of the blender which act like suction-cups to keep the blender from moving during operation or when adding/removing the containers. Also, the blade assembly (a 6-blade stainless steel knife) effectively seals the container, so that when it is removed from the blender (in an upside-down position) there was no spillage. After being turned right-side up, the containers served double duty for immediate use or as a storage container, by removing the blade assembly and attaching a screw-on lid which is supplied. This design eliminates the need to clean a separate container – a bit of genius. As you can see from the attached pictures, the unit quickly crushed ice cubes into pebble size fragments or to a granular form (snow cone consistency). This all happened in a matter of seconds with a few pushes of the burst speed button.The blender base itself measures just 6” x 6”, and weighs 3-1/2 lb. A single rotary knob controls both the speed and supplies a pulse burst of speed when pushed in, perfect for crushing ice and blending solids. The location of the on-off switch at the rear of the blender, helps to prevent accidental operation. The set includes 3 different-sized containers (8, 16 and 24 oz), and companion storage or tumbler lids (lanyard can be attached to the tumbler lids). The containers are easily cleaned, by filling a container with soapy water and running the unit for a brief time. There is a lot to like about this blender set. It works very well with plenty of power to blend food product and ice, takes up modest space on the counter and in your cabinet, and it’s a handsomely designed modern-looking appliance. I would recommend it to a friend.

   Using it every other day, or nearly daily. Assembling, operating, and disassembly have an easy learning curve. Cleaning is quick, and it’s best done immediately. Better than expected for the cost. I hand wash the base cover (not to be confused with the motor base), the silicone ring, and the stainless blade assembly, plus the glass container of choice. Convenient.

   For years I used a regular blender for my family, but the time had come to find a personal blender just for me. I really like this Tribest Glass Personal Blender. It comes with several glass containers, which I prefer over plastic. The base stays firmly put when in use and the appliance is easy to assemble and use. After years of pushing buttons to change blender speeds, it was kind of weird to be able to simply twist a knob to change things! But I think I like it better. So far, the blades have handled everything I have put in and the appliance has not strained to blend any of my concoctions. It’s easy to mix different amounts and either put on a top to drink with or a top to store the mixture. This seems to be a sturdy little blender that will serve me well for a long time.

   We had a cheaper personal blender, but after a few years it had given out. I was impressed with the quality construction of this unit; it seems more durable. The suction feet are nice to keep it in place. The glass containers also give a better impression than the plastic ones we had. The blender works well to make smoothies. It chops and liquefies fruits and vegetables nicely. The storage lids make it easy to store extras.

   I had the opportunity to evaluate this nice little blender. I must mention I did not expect it to have so many choices for mix and store containers. The unit is brite chrome stylish and the control is a low to high knob eliminating the old style push buttons. The mix/cutter is the same as my 20 year old blender and I was surprised that it the new one! It works very well and due to the containers shape it mixes very fast. Easy to clean with a damp cloth and remember to unplug it for safety when finished.

   This is a great blender to save space. It is small and powerful, and you can use the jars to drink from. The blade is very sharp and it blends quickly and easily. (See video). The only drawback I’ve noticed is that when you put a powder in first, before the liquid, it sticks to the bottom, so when the jar is flipped to blend, it tends to stick to the bottom. The remedy is easy, just put other things in first. However, it can be a bit annoying. That being said, I still really love this blender and how easy it is to use. We’ve made a lot of smoothies, salad dressing, and have even ground nuts and seeds.Overall, great product and I’m very happy with it.

    Wanted this exclusively for smoothies. It works great for that. Easier to clean than any of my other choppers and blenders. If you require glass, like me, this is perfect.

    This was purchased as a back up to the one that we use commercially over the past 3 years. Our first one is still going strong but we purchased this back up for the ‘just in case’ scenario. We use it for making our Bullet Coffee at our coffee shop and it is perfect for this.

    Well this is different. A personal blender for those who make healthy drinks, not so healthy drinks, homemade recipes and all the while picking the size you drink you want or to split, lids to refrigerate or to take to sip in during the day and cleanup super easy.Let’s start off by what this personal blender comes with. The machine itself with sucker feet to insure it won’t slide around. Three glass containers, 8, 16 and 24 ounce so the size is right. The 24 ounce has the handle for the road, but the sip lid and hard storage lid fits on all containers as the tops have the same circumference. These glass containers although more fragile than plastic are easier to clean, stand up better in the dishwasher, hard to scratch and can be replaced. All of them use the same blender blade and screw lid to container ring.It’s a simple process to blend almost like the old stand blenders without ten buttons that do the same thing with different names. Basically you use four different speeds and turn on the unit by a switch located in the back. Dial the speed to what you believe will be powerful enough and push the pulse button for about thirty seconds. Now this does come with a manual of recipes and you’ll get some idea of the speed you should use on certain hardness and thickness, but this unit is also protected by a overheating device that will stop its use until it cools down. That should give you a clue whether you’re mixing too long or at too high or too low a speed.Like I said it’s easy to use and clean. Gives you options on making just the right amount or grinding separate ingredients before mixing. I did call customer service about the 42 ounce large container they said was optional for purchase. It is supposedly on the products to be produced board but none have been made. I’m going to say that it didn’t sound like it was a sure deal that it was going to happen so maybe keep that in mind if you’re thinking that this may become a regular size blender in the future, but who knows? All other parts replacement parts are readily available however.If you’re a juicer, or make many homemade mixed recipes this is a must have. As for price, I’ve never done enough healthy eating in my life to know but my doctor has told me that I need to start so I guess we’ll find out if the high price people pay for those smoothies downtown are as tasty as a good ol’ milkshake!

    We have had this blender at our business to make bullet coffee drinks. We are going on at least 2 years with it with absolutely no problem. Love the glass, no worry for harmful toxins. It does build up a little pressure with the hot coffee we blend and so sometimes it “pops” a little after blending and releasing the seal, but this has not seemed to compromise the unit at all. We are ordering a second one for the back kitchen to do our little jobs such as sauces and speciality dressings. So happy to add the additional blender to assist us in continuing our quality handmade.

    Easy to clean, functional blender. The stainless steel looking base is actually plastic, which is disappointing. But it does the job and does it well – frozen fruit, ice, and veggies inclusive. Also, it’s quite quiet.

    I already have a big blender with plastic tumblers but I wanted this one because it comes with glass containers. This is a sturdy little blender, I couldn’t believe how powerful it is. The speed dial is very light; it turns very easily without much effort. The blades are sharp but the way it’s designed you can clean them very easily without having to risk cutting your hand. The containers have lids with flip top so you can prepare a drink an take to go or excellent for making salsas and storing in the fridge. Then you can easily pour by opening the flip top. I’m thinking to make home-made salad dressing so the lid it comes with it’s perfect for storage and pouring the dressing. The price seems high, but considering the quality of materials, how powerful it is, and the design, I feel it’s a good value.

    Glass personal blender. This blender works well , glass mixing containers with closed lid or sip lid . Nicely styled motor base with suction cup feet to keep in place on your counter. Included are 8,16 and 24 oz glass containers . Operation is fair , the variable speed dial with start stop switch works funky. By turning the dial it throttles up to high with the power switch on. The on off switch I cant really tell at what speed it turns off. It seem to turn the speed off at the last throttled speed then back to low when you restart it. The dials has a light weight feel. The motor seems weak if loaded up and the blade probably is the weakest part . My blade with one use on soft boiled vegetables has already turned as the rivet fastener seems loose . While blending the unit does a good job but it doesn’t have enough blade pitch to keep everything moving on a thick purée the top stays floated unless you shake the blender around or add more liquid. I’m also worried putting ice might make the blade unusable. The motor spins fast enough and does have some torque it just sounds light duty in comparison to my 30 year old blender. Recommended use is 30 second bursts with 30 second rest. For the expense of this unit I don’t think it delivers the value . I do like the glass containers lid and the easy assemble of the blade .

    Being a Tribest juicer & Personal Blender owner for over 10 years, I was amazed when I opened this newly designed blender. The machine body is light with a nice small foot print for leaving on my counter but how you assemble the jar base & accessories just amazed me. I couldn’t believe how sturdy and well made the glass jars and lids were made. They are almost industrial strength and I’m so pleased. I see this blender lasting many years. I’m still a bit awkward getting the centering ring just right when I screw it on a glass container but I’m sure time will resolve that. Having the multiple speeds showing as tiny lights that increase in number as you set the speed faster was unusual for me because I’m used to seeing a dot or something on the knob showing where I’m at but, again, just a different way of doing the same thing. I’m used to having two separate tops with different blades in each so it took me a little time to settle this new single, multi purpose blade exactly in place but it really seals well and works beautifully. I do wish Tribest included a few blender recipes dealing with different speeds because I’m used to just pressing down as Tribest has always been designed. This is truly a different perspective on a personal blender and absolutely beautiful. I bought the Deluxe Travel Bag as well and this is coming with me on my vacation next week. It’s a different method in terms of assembly & blending but I like it very much and am, as I said, so very impressed with the sturdiness of the accessories. You can tell this is, indeed, a high end, well built personal blender. Happy Blending :).
