I tried and tested the BlendJet 2 portable blender last year – and gave it an impressive 4.5 (out of 5) star rating. My opinion hasn't changed since I wrote my BlendJet 2 blender review. In fact, the nifty on-the-go gadget is now firmly a part of my daily routine.
The fact that I can stop by the grocery store or fruit stand on my way to work, then whizz up a fresh fruit smoothie when I get to the office, is a bonus. And it's one reason why we rated the BlendJet 2 the best cordless blender in our roundup of the best personal blenders on the market right now.
There are some great deals on the BlendJet 2 available now, including a price cut of $7.50 at Bed Bath & Beyond – down to $42.49 from $49.99. Your biggest dilemma could be choosing your favorite color.
Below I bring you more great BlendJet 2 deals, and give you tons more info about why this is a great buy.

Why a BlendJet 2 is a great choice
With its 16-ounce capacity, easy USB charging and cordless operation, the BlendJet 2 is perfect for whizzing up smoothies when you're away from home. I use it to make protein shakes for breakfast at work, but I've also taken it with me on holiday, when I wanted to be sure I could make healthy smoothies when away from home.
I have friends who gifted them to their kids when they went to college. And mom friends who prep fresh baby food when they're out and about in their BlendJet 2 portable blender.
If you have a small kitchen with limited counter or cabinet space, a portable blender like the BlendJet 2 is an ideal option. It's so much more compact than a conventional plug-in model – although, if you're looking for the ultimate at-home model, our best blender guide is worth a read.
We've also rated the best immersion blenders, if you'd prefer a stick model.
How a BlendJet 2 portable blender works
The BlendJet 2 is charged a USB-C power cable that can connect with any USB port. It takes around an hour to fully charge the blender, and that provides enough power for 15 or more blends – plenty if you're making margaritas for friends!
The USB-C lead is reversible, so there's no wrong way to plug it in. And the port is water resistant, so you don't need to panic about spills.
Cleaning a BlendJet 2 blender
Some portable blenders, including the Ninja Nutri-Blender Pro Personal Blender with Auto-IQ, now on sale with $50 off the usual price at Best Buy, have removable parts for washing, either by hand or in the dishwasher. The BlendJet 2 does not but it's still very easy to clean – I simply put a drop of dish soap and a little water in the container and give it a shake or press the power button, and any food traces are washed away.
My conclusion: if you want to pick up this colorful and useful gadget at a bargain price, go for it. Breakfast al-desko will never taste fresher than a smoothie you've made just moments before.
