PopBabies Portable Blender vs. OBERLY Portable Blender: Portable Power

Overall Verdict

Ranking by

Showing: 2/2 Items

The PopBabies and OBERLY share a cordless, portable design and intuitive operation, but this comes at the cost of reduced efficiency when compared to traditional corded personal blenders. In all the tests that involve tough ingredients like raw nuts, ice cubes, leafy greens, and frozen fruits, they both struggled to deliver consistent results.

Nonetheless, if you have to choose between these two blenders, the PopBabies would be the better option, especially when it comes to pureeing baby food and soft fruit smoothies.

The OBERLY, unexpectedly enough, failed to pass any test and received an overall performance score of zero points. In contrast, while the PopBabies just received a score of 2.3/10 points, we found it at least can grind oatmeal and process frozen fruits. The OBERLY may appeal to some for its cuteness, but its inadequate capacity may also leave you underwhelmed.
