Bella Rocket Blender 12-Piece Set vs. Icucina Portable Bullet: Head-to-Head Personal Blender Showdown

Overall Verdict

Ranking by

Showing: 2/2 Items

The Bella Rocket Blender 12-Piece Set and Icucina Portable Bullet have a lot in common in regard to features, build quality, and performance, but there are some key differences between them that could determine which blender fits you best.

The iCucina is good for preparing protein shakes with fresh plant-based foods, but it struggles to blend raw nuts and dried fruits. When we tested its ability to make protein shakes, the batch it churned out was somewhat gritty; the Bella, on the other hand, blended an acceptable batch, although there were some partially intact berries and almonds found after straining.

The iCucina also did not have the necessary strength to handle frozen fruits, which resulted in a diluted smoothie, while the Bella didn’t have much difficulty in grinding such ingredients. However, neither machine delivered a smooth blend of fibrous greens. They both fall short in the task of crushing ice cubes as well.

In conclusion, if you have to choose between these blenders, we recommend going with the BELLA Rocket, considering its slightly better efficiency and a generous set of accessories.
