Estate sales, yard sales, and antique shops were regular weekend destinations for my brother and me as kids. My parents, always on the hunt for period-appropriate decor for our Staten Island 19th-century house, made sure of it. Since then, I’ve had a love for home design and…read more

My 94-year-old grandma is an amazing cook, and she’s my go-to source for kitchen recommendations. She’s always on the lookout for devices that simplify her life, like the Ninja Blast Portable Blender. She loves its small footprint and impressive mixing power — especially because she doesn’t have to lug out a heavy blender for her daily smoothies. Naturally, I knew I had to get one for myself.

Luckily, it’s currently on sale for $59.99 (and now through November 3 is QVC’s Non-Stop Holiday Party with Black Friday-worthy deals and free shipping on everything). Plus, new QVC customers can get an extra $30 off their first order of $60 or more with code HOLIDAY30. This discount, combined with the additional savings, makes it a deal I’m definitely jumping on — and you should too!

What Is the Ninja Blast 18-Ounce Portable Blender?

With the Ninja Blast Portable Blender, you can create delicious smoothies, dressings, and more, wherever you go. This cordless blender weighs only 37 ounces, yet it features a powerful motor and stainless steel blades that my grandma says “pack a punch.” The blender has just one mode, and its 18-ounce capacity allows you to make single servings. The set includes the motor base, a vessel, a sip lid with carrying handle, recipes, and a USB-C charging cable. Cleanup is a breeze, as the vessel and lid are both dishwasher-safe.

The Ninja Blast Portable Blender is currently on sale at QVC, but this deal won’t last long. Get yours today — and tell them Grandma Judy sent you!

What QVC Shoppers Are Saying

Average Rating: 4.1 / 5

“Small but mighty, I was able to quickly make my smoothies. It definitely cuts time in half.” —Anonymous

“I have been using this daily for almost one year. I love it! I add everything I can for fruits and vegetables in my smoothies. I originally had multiple Blend-Jets, but they couldn’t process what I wanted and broke down. This product is performing great for me. Cleaning it is easy and fast. I have given this to three other people who love it too.” —MLPO

“I bought this last year and I’m absolutely in love with it! I took it with me on my trip to the UAE and Pakistan — it was so handy and convenient. I used it to make shakes and smoothies on the go, and honestly, it was totally worth it!” —annam
