We’ve recently upleveled our blender game in the kitchen to the Beast Health Blender Mini. I can already say that this is the best kitchen appliance acquisition we have had in a long while. (Some of my past favorites were the Balmuda Toaster and Kettle and our Evermill Spice Rack.) Our previous blender was a wedding gift we received seven years ago. Right after unboxing, I chucked our stained and cracking Ninja Blender into the trash bin. The Beast Health Blender Mini knocks it out of the park on so many levels! It is a great product for tiny kitchens, busy parents, health nuts, and minimalist, aesthetically obsessed interior designers. Here are the reasons why I personally deem the Beast Health Mini Blender as one of our best kitchen upgrades.
Powerful Blending Capabilities
When evaluating kitchen appliances, it’s all about function. I used to work at Jamba Juice, a smoothie chain, and thus have an appreciation for well-made blenders. I like my smoothies thick, but not chunky. Most blenders on the market (especially the smaller ones) have horrible blending capability. The Beast Blender did not hold back on the motor. They sell three motors with varying strengths and sizes:
I personally have the mini blender, chosen for it’s small footprint, light weight, and portability. However, at half the wattage of the Beast Health’s strongest blender, the mini is way better at blending smoothies than my previous Ninja! Large frozen fruit chunks are easily conquered by the Beast Mini Blender blades. The smoothies come out smooth and velvety in texture. Say goodbye to chunks of fruit swimming at the bottom or getting lodged in the straw. I absolutely cannot imagine how powerful Beast Mode Blender is. My girlfriend who owns the Beast Mode says that it is super powerful. The con is that it is also large, heavy and bulky. It’s a trade-off I am happy to make as I am primarily using the blender for 1-2 person servings.
Quieter Motor
Despite the motor’s power, it is a fairly quiet blender. As someone who relishes the morning calm, I greatly dislike the deafening whir of a blender. My previous blender was insanely loud. I recognize technology has come a long way since then. The first thing Mike said about the blender is “It’s way quieter than the previous one.”
Honestly, this unique attribute could be the blender’s claim to fame. I remember when Mike and I wanted post-workout smoothies but Casey was sleeping in his bassinet as a baby. This blender is a great asset for all parents. No more choosing between a healthy drink and disrupting nap time!
Aesthetically Pleasing
Hands down the most modern looking blender on the market. The inner ridges that were designed into the blender to increase friction and improve function actually give the blender a luxury look. Plus Beast Health offers multiple colors depending on the blender you choose. The Beast Mini Blender has five color options. I chose Sand to fulfill my beige home dreams. Pick out your favorite color here!
Because I chose the smallest blender size, it isn’t overly bulky and doesn’t take up much counter space. It is so beautiful that I have decided to leave it out on the counter. Only a few kitchen items get this privilege in our home. The color-matching base is sleek and hides nicely behind our Google Nest hub . The power button is hidden behind the base, and there is only one button on the front face. Press the button for less than a second to pulse, and longer than a second to run a timed 1-minute blend. For anyone wanting a “pretty blender”, look no further.
Affordability
You might think that a prettier and stronger blender would cost more. However, Beast Health sells their blender at affordable prices. The Beast Mini Blender costs under $100 and the most powerful version is under $200. There is a blender option for your price range. We have the Beast Mini Blender Plus+ package. For only $20 more, you get a total of three blending vessels in the following sizes: 415mL, 530mL and 650mL. I like the variable sizes and the option to meal prep for busy mornings ahead! You also get two storage lids, a carrying lid, and a straw lid. Included are two straws and cleaning supplies. I think for $20, there is a lot of value there. By the way, all their blenders have a plus option. You can always tack on the accessories at a future date if you wish.
Minimalist and Miniature
As you may already know, my minimalist heart is leaping with joy with the Beast Mini Blender offering. Tiny home dwellers rejoice! Not that we live in an especially small home anymore. But we still have a fairly small kitchen with limited counter-space. Paired with a home-owner who has low affinity for clutter (me!).
As a petite person, I love that the Beast Mini Blender weighs at a mere 4.8 pounds, making it extremely portable around the kitchen. For those who dislike clutter or have more space limitations than me, you can even put it away in a cupboard every day. For comparison’s sake, the Beast Mode Blender weighs at 6.9 pounds and our previous Ninja blender weighed at 7.1 pounds.
Time-Saving Helper
Most important of all, having a powerful blender is a super-power for busy moms. It is a major time-saver for me. In the mornings, I can easily prep a healthy breakfast for me and Casey. Aside from morning breakfast, I can do a smoothie after a workout or in the afternoon to-go when we head to the park.
With a reliable and sturdy blender around, it is easier to be a healthy eater despite my busy schedule. I throw whole foods into my smoothies including nuts, chia seeds, and hemp seeds. For protein, Mike adds some sort of nut butter and protein powder. And all my mamas out there cannot forget the collagen. I personally have been using Thrive Market’s grass-fed collagen peptides for years. I can prep smoothies ahead of time when I know I will have limited time later as well. With all this is saving me, I can spend more of my time taking Casey on adventures outdoors.
I would highly recommend this product. This was not sponsored by Beast Health, although the product was a gift. The post contains affiliate links, which help to support this space and my work. I hope this was helpful and useful.
