After conducting a thorough test, we found that both the BELLA Rocket Blender 12-Piece Set and the La Reveuse struggled when it came to blending tough ingredients like ice cubes.

In terms of making protein shake and smoothie, however, the BELLA Rocket Blender outperformed the La Reveuse . In just 1 minute and 30 seconds, it produced a nearly perfect protein shake with only a small amount of partially blended almonds and dried blueberries. Meanwhile, the La Reveuse took a minute and a half to liquify oatmeal, but there were still some chunks of berries and nuts remaining. It also took slightly longer, at 1 minute and 20 seconds, to create a well-blended smoothie compared to the BELLA.

However, the La Reveuse showed its strengths when it came to blending high-fiber foods like kale and spinach. It blended the greens to a fine mixture, unlike the Bella which left a substantial volume of greens partially unblended.

Pros & Cons

  • Adequate build quality allows for reliable performance.
  • The motor is less likely to overheat like some of its rivals.
  • It’s pretty good at processing frozen fruits and raw nuts. 
  • Its ease of use provides a satisfying blending experience.
  • Extra blending cup and twist-on travel lid make this blender perfect for those who are always on the go.
  • It boasts a consistent and dependable performance. 
  • The motor doesn’t struggle much to handle frozen fruits. 
  •  User-friendly design allows for easy control and operation.
  • It may not add any aesthetic interest to your kitchen due to its inspired design.
  • The ability to liquify fibrous greens is compromised by the low price. 
  • The resting period between blending intervals is longer than average, taking up to 3 minutes.
  • The narrow design makes the blending cup tricky to clean. 
  • The blending cup's small opening makes it quite messy to add food, especially powders.
