Few brands innovate as relentlessly as this one, and even as a Kitchen Appliances Editor, it’s hard to keep up. I’d barely wrapped up testing the Ninja Blast Max for our best blender guide before getting a first look at their next, even cooler creation.
The new Ninja BlendBOSS™ retailing at $139.99, landed on the site today. It has that classic tumbler shape with a sturdy handle (just like the Stanley cup that sits on my desk 24/7), but you can flip the tumbler upside down, place it on a motor, throw in fruit, and blend a smoothie in seconds.
Here's everything you need to know about what is set to be one of the very best portable travel blenders launched in 2025.
The 1200‑watt motor powers a 26-oz tumbler that’s perfect for smoothies, frappés, icy cocktails – you name it. One vessel does it all – no extra washing up – and it's dishwasher-safe.
At first glance, I'd worry that the Ninja BlendBoss could be a gimmick, but Ninja promises it's not some underpowered portable gadget. The motor is strong enough to crush ice and fibrous smoothies, or whip up savory dips, soups, or purees.
I immediately thought of my sister (always running from the gym to work), and my friend who packs a huge Stanley Cup, a portable coffee mug, and a blender cup of green smoothie for long study sessions at the library. The Ninja BlendBoss is the kind of tool that actually keeps up. It’s completely leakproof too, so you don't need to stress about tossing it in a tote or gym bag with your other possessions.
I love the adorable spaceship-style design. The BlendBoss comes in four colors – Cyberspace, Blue Raspberry, Lavender Lemonade, and Watermelon Bubblegum – which remind me of the Ninja Crispi portable air fryer, and the Ninja Slushi sorbet shades released this summer.
At $139.99, the NinjaBlendBoss hits that sweet spot for gifting. Nicer than something you’d buy yourself on a whim, but not out of reach.
