Our Verdict

Smeg BLF01

Smeg Personal Blender PBF01

The Smeg Personal Blender PBF01 and the Smeg BLF01 have a similar appearance but perform quite differently. The Smeg BLF01 is a full-size blender. It doesn't feel as sturdy but does a much better job of processing fibrous ingredients like kale and crushing ice. The PBF01 looks like a smaller version of the BLF01 and comes with a pair of 20oz jars. However, It does a much worse job of pureeing fibrous ingredients. Its smaller jars are better for blending hard ingredients like nuts, but it's still not ideal for that purpose.
