Amazing super powerful blender!! – AMAZING BLENDER! It exceeded my expectations. This blender is incredibly powerful. As a devoted foodie, I’ve been wanting to get a powerful blender like this for a long time. Other brands out there have similar products but with a very expensive price tag, whereas this one has a very reasonable price considering how well it performs. It blends… Read more · 1
frozen fruit super easy and I can finally make extremely thick smoothies effortlessly! I’ve also been using it to make fruit juice along with a milk bag and works superb!
I love this amazing blender, it is the quietest blender we have ever owned. We have made the most delicious healthy smoothies. My husband now uses it everyday, he is so impressed with how his smoothies taste. Show details · 1
Once I had worked out how to use the different settings on the blender I am very happy with the results (I have just replaced my old optimum blender after many years of use 10++) I like the wider squatter jug on the new model,it makes emptying… Read more · 1
thick food much easier. Like the previous model it is very noisy so I am thinking of purchasing the"muffler"
Follow-up · I have blended a few things. It blends fruit for fruit juice really well,making the juice really smooth. I've blended frozen fruit and yogurt to make yummy instant icecream. It is also great for pulverising grains into flour. It's super easy to clean ,just add some clean hot water a soap to empty jug,then blend for a few seconds. Unfortunately… Read more
I’ve had my blender for almost 2 weeks now and I am so happy with it. I have probably used it every day. For a high speed blender, the noise level is not excessive. I’ve blended sauces, puréed sweet potatoes and made smoothies with frozen fruits (absolutely love the smoothie function) I would recommend this to anyone looking for a daily use blender. I gave someone chocolate pudding today and I was asked how I got it so smooth! Show details · 1

Power in a blender – Power to crush everything you throw at it! I've crushed ice, made nut paste and smoothies so refreshing for the summer months. I look forward to Xmas party time to make frozen cocktails. Love this machine. Show reply

My blender arrived and I was very pleased with the size of it. It’s my second optimum blender. It did have an issue that was resolved quickly by the customer service The noise level Is fine and the suction pads in the feet are great. It makes a great smoothie. All in all very happy Show details · 1
So easy and so powerful! Does everything my Vitamix does. A little harder to get things out from the bottom and that's the only issue. Everything else is fantastic. Show details · 1
UPDATE April 2025: Customer service responded within a few days of submitting this review, they were helpful and we reached an amicable resolution. Very happy with the outcome and the care the team showed to ensure we remained happy customers and met or needs was awesome. Thanks Team Original review: This is my second Froothie blender.

bought the slim line as it was advertised as “doing the same” as the others but it is quite disappointing. I make a raw cheesecake base cake with an almond and date base. This was super easily achieved in my old 900, unfortunately the slim line can’t handle the dates even after soaking them. The dates stick to the sides of the jug and miss the blades, the tamper is too short to push down the sides and it was super hard to clean. The blender itself became quite hot. And the functions are limited. Disappointed as it’s one of the more expensive blenders and lacks the performance.

I received my new order with a visible scratch on one of the panels; clearly no quality control in checking your products before they are shipped to customers. Perhaps it was a demo product that was shipped to me. Show details
Does not last… – I have just had this blender for 2 months and it is now starting to show its fault. First, the power light at the front has started to flicker. Then machine is now only running for at most 30 seconds only when using the smoothie mode before it turns off completely. I was not able to make my nut milk and dips anymore. It also seems to emit smell so… Read more
I have stopped using it for safety reason. I sent email to customer support on 7/2/24 and received email that I will receive a message back in 24 hours. I still have not received any response for what to do. I think I should request for return of this faulty equipment….
New but faulty unit, blew the circuit breaker, Froothie exchanged promptly – I bought this unit new from Froothie and used for 3 minutes. That's all it took for it to short out and trip circuit breakers in my house, making lights go off as well. I was testing it with a few cups of water only, and no, none spilled. Froothie immediately offered to swap the item and even exchanged for different model, as I knew that the… Read more
jug for the G2.6 wasn't going to be large enough for my needs. I ended up with G2.1 demo model, which I'm extremely pleased with and have written a seperate review for.

So far so good – It is so far the best blender I have ever used....better than any standard blenders. I also have 1000W Ninja mini blender which is already good enough for small batches of smoothies. BUt i would really like to make a deliciously smooth almond nut butter and after reviewing Choice website, I decided to settle for Optimum G2.6. It also has good size… Read more · 1
for storage in my cupboard. I have had few hiccups on using it for the first time...like i almost called the customer service when the blender keeps shutting down every time I press the start/stop button. It turns out I need to press it just a little bit harder to do the job it is supposed to do, but I need to ask advice if this is expected as I did not see this in the trouble shooting section of the manual. Anyway, I will keep using it as the noise not too bad compared to my previous cheap blenders. I tried high speed blender called Spector from Myer, ( now a days costs only 89aud) the design is so very much similar to other Froothie products but the bottom of the jug became leaky and rusty after 2 months of use. I am hoping this will not happen with Optimum G2.6 as I am expecting too much for its price...Overall, I am very happy to use this everyday.

Excellent Blender – I really love my Optimum G2.6 Series blender. It is so powerful and the jug is the perfect size for everything I need to whizz up. I highly recommend! Show reply
Best blender ever!! – I previously wrote a review after purchasing the Optimum G2.6 Slim for myself a few weeks ago. I mentioned in review that I was so impressed with the blender (and my whole Froothie experience) that I was looking forward to purchasing another G2.6 Slim for my son & his wife. I’ve since purchased the blender and my son hasn’t stopped raving about… Read more · 1
it. My daughter sees him every day, and every day he tells her “it’s the best thing ever!” His wife jokingly asked my daughter if they have a spare bed at their house… haha! So very happy and healthy. It’s so easy to clean too. If you’re thinking of buying one, go for it! ❤️
Good blender - is slim and strong – Blends well and fast. It is essential to layer properly. I like the smoothie option which is allmwe have really used. I did blend some oats into flour and did a good job. The jug is a bit too small for our needs really and wish I'd got another bigger one. The base is lightweight and compact. Our Blade did break within four months and was a bit of… Read more · 1
a hassle to send pictures etc but froothie did send replacement promptly and no cost. I think I just prefer the optimum 9000 series with bigger jug and better pulse.
Good small blender – Good smoothie marker. Crushed ice nicely as well. Does a much better then other brands with only four blades So far can't fault it. Easy to clean Show reply
Gets through anything – What a beast. This thing makes the smoothest smoothies we've ever had. Show reply
Great for smoothies – Great for smoothies. We use it everyday. I haven't used any of the other functions yet - but plan to. It is also easy to clean Show details · 1
It’s everything I hoped it would be! – I have tried so many blenders in the past but had never put the time and effort into researching them. They would do an ok job but there would always be chunks unblended and eventually the motors burnt out. I decided to look into commercial brands and came across Froothie. Very informative with details, reviews and videos that I just had to… Read more · 1
choose the right option for me. This blender easily cuts through hard fruit, ice and vegetables as well as seeds and nuts. There is no gritty residue and definitely no chunks. People referred to it as loud but that’s just a tough machine working hard and it doesn’t last long. Should also mean a powerful motor with little chance of burn out. The deal also came with a smaller, portable blender which is great for the kids.
Nice size blender that works hard! – I have enjoyed the blender and has worked well. I find it a bit loud, but it does blend even chia seeds! I have used it mostly for quite thick smoothies. Show reply
Good mid-range blender – Bought this blender after my previous one stopped working. In comparison to my last Optimum blender, this one is a downgrade for me being smaller, less powerful and having less functionality. It also doesn’t blend as smoothly as the last one. Admittedly, I didn’t do enough research and was sold on this one due to the high reviews. All that said,… Read more · 1
it is a good blender. Takes up less bench space and it does what it needs to. I use it for smoothies every morning. Haven’t tried the ice crush function as yet, but I do use frozen fruit for smoothies and it works fine.

Blender/ Smoothie maker – Fantastic machine. Easy to use. Blends fruit perfectly Best smoothie machine I’ve had Show details · 1
Happy customer – I am extremely happy with my new blender. It’s simple to use and easy to clean, and quieter than I expected. It fits perfectly snug on my kitchen bench. The display is easy to read. I can walk away from it while it prepares my smoothies. The size of the jug is good too, having previously used the baby Ninja, which was also a great little machine for small batches. The service I received from Froothie was exceptional! Very happy with my purchase. Show details · 1
Better then buying boost juice, make your own – I have been blending lots of fruit and vegetables into smoothies, absolutely love the functions on this blender. I want to experiment with some other things in future using the supplied recipe book. Show details · 1
Great blending. Strong and quick – Very good blender. Less noise than my older 9400 which is now 12 years old and still going strong. My nephew's family now have that one and love it too. Good quality and great support services from Froothie. Show details · 1

The best brand for all my blender products! – The best brand for all my blender products! I have used multiple blenders by Optimum over the years and particularly love the G2.6 slim series! It’s super powerful, easy to use, clean and takes up minimal space in my kitchen. I use this blender for multiple recipes, I know I can rely on this brand. It’s a huge win from me! Show details · 1
