Note: I received the blender to facilitate my review. I was not compensated monetarily for this post. All opinions are honest and are entirely my own.
Now that the school year is underway, we’re fully immersed in what I like to call the wake-and-dash routine.
This involves getting up, waking the kids up, taking the dogs out, showering and getting ready, making sure the kids have breakfast, making sure the kids are getting dressed, making lunches for the kids… you get the picture, and if you’re a parent you know all too well how much of your morning routine is taken up with thinking about the kids.
As a result, I’m often out the door with no thought of breakfast for myself, and I end up snacking on things not ideal for starting the day. I’m thrilled, though, to discover the Black and Decker BL1820SG-P Fusion Blade Digital Blender
At first glance, this might seem like your typical blender; and in reviewing it as just that, it stands up pretty great against competitors. I love the glass vessel and the plastic casing around the bottom that slips over the base and stabilizes everything. I’d buy this blender just for having a good blender.
Black & Decker takes it one step further, though – or several steps, really – by providing pre-programmed buttons and a personal smoothie jar, too. Love it!
If you’ve ever made a smoothie before, you know that you typically have to start and stop the blender several times, jostling things around to get it well-blended. No more! Just push the “smoothie program” button and you can walk away and finish one of the other million things you need to do.
If you watch the video above, you can see how simple it is – and how well it works – but you can also see my before & after pics below. I just threw in some frozen fruit and some orange juice, and ended up with a great smoothie ready to take with me!
I love that once you’re done blending you can just put on the new lid and you’re ready to go; you don’t have to try to pour it into a different cup, potentially spilling it all over the counter (ahem… speaking from experience), and you don’t have to bring a cup with no lid in the car, accidentally splattering some of the smoothie in the car (ahem… again… speaking from experience).
You can find the Black & Decker digital blender on Amazon or at Target and other retailers. You’ll love it for making your busy mornings a little less crazy, and for all the other things you can make with this high-quality blender, too.
That sounds like an awesome blender. Can you believe I don’t even own one?
This looks like a great blender. I am looking into getting a new blender. I will have to see if i can find this one.
I have one of these travel blenders not Black and Decker and I love it. I use it to take smoothies to work sometimes!
I have been looking at new blenders recently, but I hadn’t considered this one. It looks awesome.
we were making smoothies every day over the summer. I’ll have to invest in frozen fruit to do this again
I love smoothies, but I need a better blender. This looks like a good option!
We love smoothies! This looks like a great blender to create smoothies on a daily basis.
this is amazing! I’ve never seen one like this before, but I would love to be able to grab my smoothie and go!
This looks so useful! I love to make smoothies.
This is so neat. We love a good blender and smoothies.
I am in the market for this. My husband is constantly on the go, but really enjoys shakes for breakfast, so we’re looking for something like this to allow for him to enjoy his favorite breakfast where ever he goes.
It’s so nice that you don’t have to keep pushing the contents down with a long-handled spoon. It does a great job!
That’s a good looking blender! I love the glass jar blender. Is the to go cup also glass?
No, the to-go cup is plastic. I love the glass vessel for the large part, but I think for the personal bottle it’s nice having it plastic – easy to throw it in your bag and not worry about it breaking while you’re out and about!
I love having a personal blender like this since I have a smoothie for breakfast every morning. It really makes it easy to clean too.
I miss making myself smoothies. I can’t remember why I ever stopped, maybe I’ll start again. This looks like a great blender.
I need a new blender. Our old one was cheap and started breaking and leaking after a handful of uses.
That looks like an awesome blender. I make a smoothie everyday so I would just love one of these!
I would love a blender like this. I enjoy make smoothies on the go.
That’s a nifty blender! I love the retro look!
I am in desperate need of a good blender and this one looks amazing! I would love to have this!
That blender looks like a powerhouse. Now I am thirsty!
Looks like a great blender. I really like the to-go cup.
I am going to start making breakfast smoothies and this would be awesome!
