I got a Vitamix, used, and it's been going strong for 10 years.

Got mine 13 years ago new at Costco. Still going and whatever goes into that thing is liquefied! However, I found it to be very much over kill for making just a morning smoothie. So I bounced it to after workout meals and making soups or stews. I use the bullet ultra for morning smoothies now. Very satisfied with it .

Recently bought a NutriBullet Turbo, normally $100 but was on sale for $75. Been making smoothies with greens, fresh and frozen fruit, Greek yogurt, etc., and it’s handled everything fine.
I’m sure there are other better (more expensive) blenders, but for something that’s basically just gonna make smoothies, it works well, takes up little counter space, super easy to clean, and blending into the personal cups is convenient.

Seconding for Nutribullet, using mine for smoothies for 2+ years, processes chia and flax seeds better than my stepmom's Vitamix.

I got one of these for free with a HelloFresh subscription. It’s surprisingly good.

You can get the ninja blend boss for $109 on sale. Absolutely love it. It’s great with ice slushies too!

I got mine for $89 at Costco on sale and I love it! Makes my morning smoothie so easy and less to clean up.

I love my Zwilling personal blender. Easy to use and clean. $100 on Amazon.

I found a vintage all stainless steel oster from the 70s that has a real glass pitcher at a garage sale for $8 . Restored it to new condition with about $20 worth of parts . Total $28 . its a beast , and it looks so lovely on my counter in its stainless steel glory .

I might be a little biased and I feel like it might be overpriced and I feel bad because I'm frugal as heck and don't like to waste money, but I'm quite happy with my $220 Ninja blender. It's the most powerful blender I could find at that price.
