It blends straight into leakproof bottles for ease and convenience, and it’s a practical gadget for whipping up sauces, dips and soups, with a 30-page digital recipe book for even more ideas. The beauty of the Tefal blender is that it does most of what a full-sized machine does without colonising the worktop, and it’s slashed to £44 – a saving of 32%. It’s also cheaper than rival blenders with a similar spec, such as the Nutri Ninja blender and smoothie maker, which has a 700W motor and costs £59.99. The size of the Tefal model seems to be what most shoppers love the most. The blender has drawn a run of five-star reviews on Amazon, with many choosing the Tefal specifically because they didn’t want a full-sized machine. One buyer called it a “brilliant little blender”, using it for silken tofu and fruit while away from home and then keeping it in regular use once back.

A third picked out the practical stuff, noting “easy to use, compact, looks great, and the quality looks fine. “It has suckers that keep it stable, and you can do smoothies to go with two convenient containers that serve as blender and drinking bottle.” Not everyone got on with it. Some shoppers noted that the battery charge only lasted for a few uses before needing to be recharged, and others wished the bottles came with a better-designed drinkable lid.
