Tribest PB-250 BPA Free Personal Blender, Complete Blender and Grinder Package



8-years and still going - It's earned a review!
I rely so heavily on other buyers reviews when purchasing that I felt after all these years I had to finally write a review. Thanks all you reviewers!!!

In my opinion here are the pros and the cons:

CON:
Not as aesthetically pleasing as other personal benders. (But I'd rather have functionality over fashion any day)

PROS:

Grinds Coffee !!!
Grinds Ice
Grinds Spices (think dried mulling spices ground for a tea or the holidays or all my indian spices- Mmmm)
Blends (anything)
Puree: Hummus
Puree: Pesto
Whips: Salad Dressing
Whips: Personal Whip Cream

I bought this blender for a friend many many years ago and fell in love with it- then bought one for myself. The one I purchased had two blades an S blade - 1 piece of metal and a + or cross blade- 2 pieces of metal. (If you are seriously debating on the $6 difference - absolutely get BOTH. While one is in the dishwasher the other will be...

Excellent blender, 1 issue, comprehensive review (+useful tips)
Like most of my "reviews" this is in two sections. If you don't like or don't have the time for a lengthy review, read just the IN BRIEF section. If you want to read a lot about this potential purchase, read the FULL REVIEW section.

<< IN BRIEF >>
Great blender. Used multiple times a day over many years and is still going strong. Powerful motor for its size. Has some leaking blade issues, after a few years. Blends well including fruits, frozen fruits, beans, dressings, nuts, ice, and more. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a small and easy to clean personal blender. I give it 4 stars; 1 star off for the leaky blade issue (other people have experienced this also).

I've been using these blenders since the year they came out (in New Zealand), perhaps 8 or more years ago. I currently own two. One 240v and one 110v (I travel a lot). As far as I know Tribest was the first company to make a popular person blender. I get the...

My favorite blender
While this blender isn't as powerful as a Vitamix, it is perfectly adequate for most purposes and is great for everyday use. What I love most about this blender is the convenience and easy clean-up. It stays on my counter and I use it every day for making smoothies and salad dressings. As another reviewer mentioned, it isn't the best at blending frozen items. It does takes a little time to blend up frozen items like chunks of fruit but it will do it. Having 4 cups (2 different sizes) with tops is wonderful. The small cups are perfect for blending things like salad dressing without pulling out your large food processor. The tops make it easy to store left overs. Another thing I like is that you can order parts for the blender should anything go wrong. The size is great and I plan on taking my blender with me whenever I travel. I highly recommend this product!
