Tefal 1.5L Uno Blender BL2B1165

Key features & specs

• 1.5 L jug capacity (≈ 1.25 L useful capacity) — good for family-size blends.

• 450 W motor — enough for smoothies, soups, sauces, crushed-ice drinks.

• 1 speed + Pulse function — basic but convenient for general blending jobs. 

• “Ice Crush” function — can crush ice to snow, for drinks or frozen treats.

• Durable stainless-steel (Zelkrom) blades. 

• Plastic jar (lightweight, easy to handle) and the jar is marked with a max level. 

• Suction-feet base for stability while blending. 

• Dishwasher-safe jug (though check the manual for exactly which parts are safe). 

• Extra: includes a small grinder/chopper attachment (useful for nuts, spices, onions/garlic) — makes it more versatile. 

• Comes with 2-year local manufacturer warranty. 

What it’s good for — and what to expect

Good for:

• Everyday blending: smoothies, milkshakes, sauces, soups, purees.

• Crushed-ice drinks or cocktails (ice-crush capability).

• Small-batch grinding: spices, nuts, coffee beans, garlic/onion, etc — thanks to the grinder attachment.

• Households needing a reliable, budget-friendly blender for general use.

Limitations to be aware of:

• Only 1 speed + pulse — less control compared to multi-speed/fancier blenders.

• Plastic jar (not glass) — more lightweight, but potentially less premium-feel and more prone to scratches over time.

• Not ideal for heavy-duty tasks like making nut butters or handling very hard items — a more powerful blender or food processor would be better for those.

• Because of 450 W motor, long or heavy loads may stress it — better for moderate-duty kitchen tasks.
