Got three Auto-iQ presets for blend, crush, and smoothie that run timed 30-second pulsing cycles automatically. High motor torque powers through tough icy drinks and frozen fruit, and the rugged 22-ounce jar twists off the cordless base for travel. The battery drains pretty fast though if you're running back-to-back heavy ice blends.

Blends frozen fruit and leafy greens smoothly when you load ingredients using the printed liquid-first fill lines on the jar. The 22-ounce BPA-free cup detaches from the motor base with a quick twist so it's easy to toss into a gym bag. Its spring-loaded sip lid locks all the way back and won't bump your nose while drinking. You don't get USB-C charging on this model though, so you're stuck packing a bulky dedicated wall adapter for trips.

Larger and stronger than the smaller Blast, and the go-to personal blender for daily double-scoop protein smoothies with cereal, ice, yogurt and fruit. The bottle detaches from the base without buying a separate lid.

Upgrades to a 22-ounce cup that unlocks from the motor base so you aren't lugging the heavy motor around. Extra motor torque crushes ice cubes and blends protein shakes smoothly, and the lid adds a comfy carry loop. It drops standard USB-C charging for a proprietary pin cord though, so you'll have to keep track of a dedicated charger.

Twists the 22-ounce cup right off the base for light carrying while Auto-iQ pulses blend dense frozen fruit into silky smoothies. You'll have to use its proprietary wall charger though since it doesn't take USB-C.

It's how well reviewed Ninja Blast Max BC251 is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a appliance needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed appliances here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
Category: Blender. Type: Portable blender. Capacity: 22 oz. Model number: BC251.
