Blenders, smoothie makers and juicers worth a look

Personal blenders are quick for one-portion smoothies; full-size jug blenders handle soups, sauces and bigger batches; slow juicers press juice rather than blending the whole fruit.

Tip: if you mainly make smoothies to take out, a blender that blends straight into a drinking cup saves washing up.
