So what makes the new NutriBullet Blender Combo different than its competitors? Not only are you spending just $130 for the full set versus close to $400 for a Vitamix, it actually lives up to its promises of making recipes faster and mess-free. The new personal blender cups have the rivets for the blade on the inside of the cup instead of the outside like the older models, allowing the liquid to stay inside so you’re not constantly wiping up excess on the outside. And while some blenders don’t come with vessels that are made for blending hot soups and foods, the new 64-ounce pitcher is safe to use with hot recipes thanks to its vented lid.

To buy: $129; amazon.com. Thanks to NutriBullet’s Smart Extract program, which automatically gauges the time and speed needed to transform tough fruits, veggies, nuts, and seeds into silky smoothies, there’s no guesswork needed when wondering how long you should to blend a specific type of food. With three other speeds and a pulse option up to 1200 watts of power, you can pulverize ice and other frozen foods in seconds—it’s honestly like magic! And to address my ultimate pet peeve of blenders, the combo even comes with a tamper so you can easily spread around or mash food that gets stuck on the blade. If you’re currently using two different blenders for big batch recipes and also smoothies on-the-go, consider them garage sale ready. This new powerful interchangeable combo eliminates the need to have both in your kitchen cabinet, ultimately saving you space and time—at least, it did for me.
