La Reveuse Smoothies Blender Personal Size 300 Watts with 18 oz BPA-Free Portable Travel Sports Bottle (Pink)

I live it, perfect for smoothie for fruit, vegetables and all kind of personal drinks. I like the color and functionality.

UPDATE 2: It's been 5 years now and it's still going strong. Nothing has broken, not even a tab (lug) like I had previously written someone complained about. It was an incredible $19.00 purchase and even at the new price of $26.00 it's still and incredible investment. UPDATE: I've had this for almost 2 years now, using it 3-4 times per week for a breakfast smoothie. I've had no issues with it at all, however I thought I'd try something with more power in case I wanted to make a frozen drink, so I decided to order a Ninja BN301 Nutriblender for $60. Here are the differences: This blender is 300w, the Ninja is 600w This blender makes a smoothie in 15-20 seconds, the Ninja makes a smoothie in 15-20 seconds. This blender's blades aren't as sharp at the Ninja blade, but the difference in the end product is barely noticeable. This blender has the threads for screwing on the cutter blades and cap on the outside, like a normal jar. The Ninja has the threads on the inside, causing them to get filled with smoothie when removing the cutting blades and attaching the pour or storage cap. Why would they design it that way? The one and only improvement of the Ninja over this blender is the hole size of the pour spout is about three times larger. I'm sending the Ninja BN301 back. I have a big Cuisinart blender which I rarely use because it's too much of a hassle for most of my needs. I was going to purchase the Hamilton Beach personal blender, but with 175 watts, it seemed a bit too light duty. This unit with 300 watts seemed a bit more appropriate. First, let me state that I own the above big blender, a Cuisinart food processor and a Cuisinart immersion blender. I bought the LaReveuse Smoothies Blender just for that purpose, smoothies. Secondly, let me address some comments made by other users: 1. Tab(s) breaking off. The jar has three tabs (lugs) that allow the jar to lock in place on the motor base. I have no idea how you break one of these off. Really, given the stoutness of the material and the location of the lugs, I really can't fathom how you could break one off. Even if you did break one or more tabs off, they sell replacement jars, lids and blades on Amazon. 2. To address the comment of another reviewer, the locking tabs (lugs) not only lock the jar into place, they are part of the "switch" for the motor. The motor base does not have a visible switch. Align the locking tabs (lugs) with the slots on the motor base and push down for momentary on. Ease up on the pressure and the ...motor turns off. If you want the motor to stay on (no more than 1 minute per the manufacturer), simply push down, give the jar a slight clockwise turn and Voila, it stays on. To turn of, simply turn the jar a slight turn counter clockwise. So if you don't want the motor turning on when you plug the unit in place, don't lock the jar on the motor. Pretty simple. 3. Addressing the comment that the jar is too flexible. Really? ...REALLY? No it isn't as firm as a glass jar (won't break like glass either), but it isn't a plastic bag either. It has a SLIGHT flex if you really squeeze it. If you handle it like I think most people will, you won't notice any flex at all. Okay, enough of all that, how well does it work? As said, I bought this to make smoothies. My typical smoothie consists of something like the following: 1 peach (skin on), 1/2 banana, big handful of blueberries, 1 individual serving cup (5.3 oz) of yogurt (plain or some fruit flavored) and maybe 1/4 to 1/3 cup of low-fat milk. Toss all that in, screw on the blade cap, set the jar on the motor base and gently press down. I pulse it a few times (2-3 seconds per pulse, just like you would a full size blender), then I leave it on for about 10-15 seconds. DONE! That's it, and for 20 bucks, how could anyone possibly complain?

The blender is super easy to use and good to have for quick protein smoothies and such for work. It only has one setting when you push down the cup to blend, but that doesn't really bother me because I just need it to blend. Sometimes the blades won't get everything if I use frozen fruit but just stir it up between blends and add some water and it should be alright. I will say cleaning it can be a little tedious because the cup is pretty long and skinny, and my hand wouldn't be able to reach the bottom with a sponge. I would also say cleaning the blades also takes some time with getting into the crevices, but other than that the blender works well and is pretty decent for what it is. If you just need an easy to use blender and aren't fussy with details, then it's pretty good.

I am obsessed with this mini blender!! Soooooooooo easy to use and clean! If you are looking for a mini blender that Really Works, and very affordable- this is the one!! It’s tiny- but oh so mighty!! I use blenders every day and I highly, HIGHLY recommend La Reveuse !!!! Love it!!!

These little blenders work great. Don't take up much room, easy to operate and clean, just the right size for one great smoothie! Priced right!

I bought this blender probably 8 years ago on a whim on Groupon. After having a g-tube fed kid a year or two later, we’ve used this blender EVERY DAY for 6+ years. It has been knocked off the counter, traveled around the country, dropped, etc and STILL works fantastic. Just bought our second one only bc the plastic locking lip finally broke but it still works if we hold it in place. Fans for life!

Aug. 15, 2024 update pertaining to the black and silver version mentioned in my original review below: About two weeks have passed since I wrote my original review. A few days ago, the blade's seal began failing; my smoothies began to leak through to the exterior of the screw-on blade attachment. Then yesterday, while I was blending another smoothie, the blender stopped on its own; one of the three plastic prongs extending from the bottle had broken off during blending, and another one had broken but was still attached. Hopefully I can get my money back. I bought a black silver one for me, to replace old and worn-out Magic Bullet, and a pink one for my daughter, for her birthday. We like the colors. Having used mine almost daily for about one month, I find: :) The motor is strong enough thus far to blend ice and frozen fruits into my smoothies. :) Overall, it's compact and convenient to use and store. :( The bottle is too narrow to wash easily, even with my small hands. :( The cap is unusually hard for me to open. I do not overtighten it, but it's extremely difficult to unscrew. :( The rubber-plastic stopper on the cap popped apart this week, with no mishandling on my part. I found the two parts, but snapping them back together isn't a permanent solution; it sometimes pops apart again upon me opening it.

After less than a year of using it every day with frozen fruits, it has completely burned out and refuses to start again. Can't be too mad given the price

Honestly amazing ! All the other commenters saying they've had problems with it or this and that must have just got a defective one because mine is amazing. You just have to be mindful of how much liquid you're putting in it because a little more liquid really does help blend everything up. But I make smoothies with frozen fruit all the time and the only time I have to stop it is if I haven't put in enough milk with it. It's very perfect and convenient and easy to clean, the color is cute, and you can easily store it. Yes as is most lenders sometimes you do have to shake it just a little bit to get things down to the bottom to all blend together but for the most part I've had nothing but good experiences with this blender, there's only been two times where I have to stop at and add more milk. (: 10 out of 10 would recommend

Blender died 30 seconds into ita first use. Only had yogurt milk and strawberries in it. Absolutely terrible product.

This little one person shake is quick, easy and versatile. The best thing I’ve purchased in a long time that I actually use it’s quick. I make myself a quick little shake and take it with me. The little travel cup is great idea then when you bring it back, you just wash the cup. Love it and the shake turns out just as great as any other big blender.

It's been great. I've been making a smoothie at least once a day since I got this. However I wish the cup was bigger. I got to shake it a few times while it's blending to get the stuff on top to reach the blades. I tried looking online for the La Reveuse 24 oz cups but they don't fit this blender model. Still great smoothies though. Just wish Id got a bigger one.

Use this everyday for smoothies and ice coffee, perfect size for single or double serve!
