If you want a personal blender that’s portable as well as compact, check out the cordless NutriBullet GO. Put your money where your mouth is with Walmart’s blender steal, coming in at $24.96. Its powerful, stainless steel blades are designed to blend smoothies smoothly every time.
Indeed, the appliance only succeeded in slicing through the bottom half of the cheddar, leaving plenty of the block of orange cheese unscathed. There’s no getting around the fact that the Hamilton Beach MultiBlend is not a fearsome slicing and dicing machine. For that you’re much better off springing for a much more powerful blending device from Ninja, Vitamix, or Blendtec.
Frankly it’s a heck of a lot more options than the Stay or Go which only sports a fat switch on its front face. Even the Ninja Nutri Ninja and Oster Beehive Blender have more basic controls, either push-down to blend or an old-school flip switch. My only real complaint here is that these keys feel hamilton blender a bit lightweight and tend to jiggle around in their housings. Another trait the MultiBlend shares with the Stay or Go is a small footprint. Compared with the monsters of the blending world, the Blendtec Wildside , Vitamix 7500 , or Ninja Ultima , the MultiBlend seems cute and even harmless.
These small appliances help you extract the fiber and flavor of your favorite fruits and vegetables and use them to make drinks, smoothies, ice cream and more. Sam’s Club features several dedicated juicing machines as well as those that do double-duty as more traditional blenders. When you boil it all down, I find it hard to enthusiastically recommend the Hamilton Beach MultiBlend Blender. Sure, priced at a rock-bottom $40, the gadget gets plenty of slicing and dicing done for not much cash. That said, its rather weak motor delivered essentially the same blending performance as its more smoothie-centric sibling, the Hamilton Beach Stay or Go . Oddly enough, the Hamilton Beach MultiBlend didn’t shine as brightly on our smoothie-making trials as its smaller, less powerful sibling.
You can find more powerful personal blenders that are still quite quiet, like the NutriBullet Pro 1000. Like almost all blenders, it can roughly chop the nuts, but after that, it can’t process them any further. Even if you undock the jar and shake it often, it can’t pull the crushed ingredients into a vortex.
