It’s disappointing for processing small batches of fibrous ingredients. Each blending cycle lasts for 30 seconds, which is a little longer than other portable blenders’ 20-second blending cycles. However, you must run several cycles to get the best results. Even after more than five minutes of blending, it struggles to process fibrous ingredients like kale, resulting in a grainy puree. Bits of kale can also get stuck between the sides of the jar and the motor base, and there’s no way to dislodge them without unscrewing the motor base.
