There's one name synonymous with bullet-style blenders: Nutribullet.

Famous for its compact size, single-serve pitcher, and ferocious blending, Nutribullets are essentially blenders that pulverize foods, such as fruit, vegetables, seeds, and nuts until liquified. They have a bullet-shaped blending cup. You fill the cup with your ingredients (usually starting with the driest), screw on the blade, and flip it onto the base and lock it down to blend.

Best kitchen tech gifts, according to a cooking fanatic
The way to the heart is through the stomach, or for the home cook, it's through a great kitchen setup - and these are the best gadgets to gift.

It's as easy as that. Most models have only one speed and no programs. In fact, if you're wondering how Nutribullets differ from other blenders, it's primarily that they're simpler, smaller, and you can take the blending cups on the go, as you can get lids so you can easily store and transport them. You can also get two different blades: One for blending liquids, and one for milling hard foods.

Another perk is that the Nutribullet blending cup does not contain any BPA (Bisphenol A) or Phthalates - perfect for those of you trying to live a more natural, non-toxic lifestyle. You just have to decide which Nutribullet model you want. Each one comes with different accessories and has varying power and capacity. To see which Nutribullet models are the best, check our round-up below.
