Breville blender
Totally amazing blending power. I use this blender on a daily basis and it still does wonders with frozen bananas for fresh fruit smoothies.
Try this delicious frozen-fruit smoothie for breakfast: 1-2 bananas, water/green tea, 2-3 strawberries, 1/2 cup blueberries, 3-5 pieces of mango.
Cost: around $80
