What should you pay attention to when buying a blender?

Haven't been able to make a choice yet because you're not sure what to look for when buying a blender? No worries. We have created a handy overview for you in which you can read exactly what the important things to look out for are.

• Power: The power of blenders ranges from about 200 to 2000 watts. The higher the power of the device, the better they usually are at pureeing, blending and crushing. Want to make a good smoothie? Then a high-powered blender is not necessarily necessary.
• Jug contents: In this we can break down 3 categories, namely: less than 1 liter, 1 to 1.5 liters or more than 1.5 liters. The question is how much you want to prepare. Glasses can usually be filled with 330 ml of juice, so you can divide the number of liters by 330 ml to calculate the number of glasses per liter.
• Material of the jug: Jugs are usually available in glass or plastic. Glass looks nicer, is less prone to scratches and is also less likely to become dull. Finally, glass is also more heat resistant. Plastic jugs are cheaper, though.
• Weight: Pay attention to the weight of the blender. The heavier the device, the harder it is to lift it out of the kitchen cabinet.
• Purpose of use: What will you use the blender for. For hard ingredients, smoothies or vacuuming?
  • For hard ingredients, you need a blender with high power.
  • For smoothies, it's helpful that your blender has a lid.
  • For vacuuming, you need a blender that sucks all the air out of the jug.
• Convenience: some blenders have convenient accessories or automatic programs that make it easier to use. If you want to go for optimal usability, then you can look for these. There are also portable blenders that you can use on the go or blenders with a cup that allows you to drink your smoothie right away.
• Size: Do you want a mini, small or large blender? This is mainly practical, as the size should fit in your kitchen.

Blender vs hand blender

What is the difference between a blender and a hand blender, that's a question we get frequently. Below we have listed some important differences.

• With a blender you can prepare large quantities more easily than with a hand blender.
• The blender requires more cleaning than a hand blender.
• The hand blender has lower power than the blender, making it more suitable for briefly pureeing dishes. Blenders are more powerful, making them well suited for crushing ice and long blending of dishes.
