![]() I had to pay a little over P500 for that delivery. ![]() One thing to note: While BlendJet itself has free shipping options, they ship via Fedex which charges for door-to-door delivery. Surprisingly, it shipped almost immediately and I had it even before a week had gone by. Even the USB slot can take in some water so washing and rinsing the blender will not damage the blender even if you accidentally get some excess water dripping down its sides. * Water-resistant – The blender can withstand some water but dunking into water is not advisable. Pour out and rinse any leftover soapy water carefully. Blend for a full cycle to remove the soapy water. * Easy cleaning – To clean, just pour in some water around halfway. The original blender did not have these markings. This makes it easy for those following recipes to measure out portions. * Measurement markings – The side of the BlendJet 2 has measurement markings in ml and ounce. This way, it won’t activate the blender even if you accidentally press the Power button. Lastly, when you need to travel and place the BlendJet into a bag or you are drinking straight from the BlendJet, hold down the Power button for 3 seconds to put it into Lock mode. You can do quick blends of a few seconds to cut down these hard items into smaller bits, much like a food processor, before going into full Blend mode. Press the Power button twice to go into Pulse mode. Pulse mode is good when trying to blend harder items like nuts and ice. * Blend, Pulse, and Lock modes – The normal mode is usually the Blend mode which blends your ingredients for 20 seconds. ![]() A review I saw says the BlendJet2 has a 4,000mAh battery while the original has a 2,000mAh battery. * Battery life – The manufacturer says that you can go up to 15 20-second blends on a single charge. It takes about 1.5 hours to reach full charge. * USB-chargeable – The blender is chargeable via a USB cable using a USB-C (the original BlendJet used a micro USB connection). ![]() Plus, there are measurements on the side of the body (the original BlendJet didn’t have these). * BPA-free body – It is heavy and almost feels like glass but it isn’t. I put in 1 papaya slice and 2 small bananas with just one-third of the body filled with water and after blending, I already had a full 16oz smoothie. * Larger capacity – The BlendJet 2 can hold 16 oz (475ml) compared to the original which had a volume capacity of 12 oz (355ml). I don’t take ice much (one of those things I learned in my yoga practice – not too much cold stuff) so I just use cold water with my smoothies. My daughter has tried blending with ice cubes in them (we recommend using Pulse mode first to break down the ice cubes into smaller ice chips before doing a full blend) and it did its job fairly well. Look at my first attempt at making a smoothie out of a papaya slice and two bananas. This makes it 5 times more powerful than the original BlendJet, the website claims. This creates a tornado effect that blasts ingredients against the jar “at 275 times per second”, according to their website, resulting in better blending results. BlendJet 2’s stainless steel blades are offset from the center of the base. * Patented Turbojet technology – Other blenders have blades that are meant for blending. There are some great improvements on it since the original BlendJet was introduced. So, here is my very own BlendJet 2 portable blender in HOT PINK!!! One of the latest designs they came up with was the Lisa Frank line of blenders and if not for the fact that I had already placed my order for one, I probably would have gone for a Lisa Frank design. The BlendJet 2 comes in 26 (so far, and still growing) different colors and designs. I finally gave in and ordered right after New Year. I also thought it was a great idea for blending stuff on the go, when I am at the office all day, or traveling. The ad of BlendJet had been popping up on my Facebook feed for some time already and while we have a blender at home, this personal blender caught my fancy because it looked so easy to assemble and clean (unlike our blender here that has to be disassembled and parts washed separately).
