ksaug21 81 Posted April 2, 2013 Hi all- Looking for some suggestions for a blender. I really do not have any experience with a blender so this will be very new to me. I'm having my surgery on 4/29 so I'm trying to do some research and get prepared! Any suggestions that you have will be greatly appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ksaug21 81 Posted April 2, 2013 Great, I'll look into it! thank you, appreciate it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexasJeff 179 Posted April 2, 2013 Yeah, the one I got from costco has 3 different blades, 2 large cups, 2 med and 2 small and a blender pitcher. It was $50. The best part is I use it for many other things than just Protein Drinks. I grind my coffee, make smoothies, salsa. And, it's compact and fits great o. The counter.

michpell39 399 Posted April 2, 2013 I just got my Blendtec in on the pricy side but I swear I could liquefy a tennis shoe in it and its warranty is 7 years 8 through costco with an extra jug amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted April 2, 2013 I have 2 Hamilton Beach small blenders. They double as your drinking cup. They are around $15-$20. at Walmart, Target etc. I fit into it 8oz of milk, 2 scoops of Protein Powder and the rest are tiny ice cubes and I make a very thick shake. I have been drinking these for 1 year but my band was July. Good luck with your choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiny1234 121 Posted April 2, 2013 Nutri bullet...almost like magic bullet but has bigger motor and can break down anything you put in it. I make green smoothies that taste amazing. 2 handfuls of baby spinach, frozen mangoes,water, Protein powder, some berries, ..very good. U can add seeds nuts etc. 1 Kitt3000 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hely88 883 Posted April 2, 2013 well.... I have a vita mix. It is the King daddy of all blenders and it costs as much. You can even blend veggies up and keep blending until they heat up for Soup. They sell it at costco and online. I have heard the bullet is a good choice. You can put in peanuts nothing else and it makes the most amazing Peanut Butter or any other nuts. 1 michpell39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry just reread my post the Peanut Butter was for the vita mix. It can pulverize anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
