The ultra-powerful motor has 10 variable speed settings and its heavy-duty base won't easily shift on the counter when in use. With pro-quality precision and control, it can make everything from silky smooth green smoothes to creamy soup and more. There's nothing the showpiece Vitamix can't do when it comes to blending, pureeing and grinding ingredients. These are the best blenders you can buy in 2023, according to extensive testing and in-home use by Good Housekeeping experts. Our top tested picks include blenders ranging from $80 to $550 from brands that we love including picks from Vitamix and Ninja and models that have personal blending cups with lids for easy portability.

In the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab, we’ve tested everything from immersion blenders to food processors and more than 100 blenders over the years to find the best high-performance blender models. Your blender should crush ice for silky smooth frozen cocktails and vegan protein shakes, puree velvety soup in minutes and grind oats for homemade oat milk. But that's not all these kitchen staples are good for. You need a blender that can easily process your ingredients into smooth, creamy perfection if you're whirring up an energizing healthy breakfast smoothie.

We updated the prices of each blender to reflect any changes in sale prices. We carefully reviewed this story in January 2023 and stand by our picks selected by the Good Housekeeping Institute.
