Nutribullet has launched a new personal blender that lets you drink your creations without disassembling them, reducing the risk of accidental spills while you’re on the go. Instead, the Nutribullet Flip lets you sip straight through the flip-top blender lid once your drink is ready, so you can take the whole thing with you to work or the gym.
It’s a different design than the Ninja Blast portable smoothie maker, which also has a sip-through lid, but has a blending blade built into the motor base. The Nutribullet Flip also has a more powerful motor (11.4V compared to 7.4V for the Ninja Blast and most other personal blenders), which should make it easier to blend frozen fruit and ice.
It runs on a three-cell lithium-ion battery that charges via a USB-C cable. According to Nutribullet, one charge is good for 14 blending cycles, so you don’t have to plug it in daily or even weekly.
The Nutribullet Flip comes with a 20oz stainless steel insulated tumbler that keeps your drinks cold for up to 24 hours, rivaling popular tumblers from brands like Stanley and Yeti.
It is operated by a single button, which can perform a 30-second mixing cycle or pulse. When it’s time to clean, simply pour water and a little dish soap into the cup and let the machine run one cycle – no scrubbing required.
It’s available in black, white and stainless steel for $99.99 (around £80) directly from Nutribullet or from Amazon. At the time of writing it is not yet available for sale in the UK.
We’ll be testing the Nutribullet Flip soon to see if it deserves a spot on our list of the best blenders.
