Jug vs Personal vs Hand Blender: Which Do You Need?
Blenders come in three main types, and choosing the right one matters more than the brand. Here's how jug, personal and hand blenders compare.
Jug (countertop) blender
The classic full-size blender with a large jug on a motor base. It's the best choice for batches - family smoothies, big pots of soup, sauces and dips - and the more powerful models crush ice well. The downsides are size (it takes up worktop or cupboard space) and that it's overkill for a single smoothie.
Personal / bullet blender
A compact blender where you blend a single serving directly into a cup, then twist on a lid and drink or take it with you. It's quick, easy to clean, cheap and space-saving - ideal if you mostly make one smoothie at a time. The limit is capacity: it's not for big batches or large pots of soup.
Hand (stick) blender
An immersion blender you hold and dip straight into a pan, jug or bowl. It's perfect for soups and sauces (blend right in the pot), purees and small jobs, and it stores in a drawer. With attachments it can whisk and chop too. It's less suited to thick frozen smoothies than a jug or bullet blender.
