We put together a guide on the quietest blender in 2023. So what’s changed since then? This guide looks at the best quiet blender available on Amazon right now.
You will read the decibel level of the leading low noise models (where the manufacturer has made them available), as well as a round-up of other important features, weighing up the pros and cons of each blender.
Before we begin with our list of the 7 best quiet blenders, there is something we wanted to address that you might have been wondering…
How loud are blenders?
Some blenders can get seriously loud – up in the 80-90 dB range – and this puts them in a category of home appliances that can make a disturbance; think vacuum cleaners and garbage disposals 😞
But all is not lost, because the quiet blenders we feature here are in the 60-70 dB range. That can make all the difference (it might keep you, your loved ones, or roommates sane!).
Let’s be honest, if early morning smoothies or night-time food prep is disturbing your household, this 20 dB reduction in sound will make a big difference.

Before you get to the separate spotlights on these quiet blenders, here are some stats:
#1 – Vitamix Quiet One
Simply the quietest blender around. Makes just 64 dB with vibration-dampening technology, a full sound enclosure, ample power and clever program settings make this the leading low-noise option.
With a noise level of 64 dB at top speed, the Vitamix Quiet One is considered the quietest blender on the market.
This noise level simply won’t be beaten by any blenders you’ll find, and that’s due to a number of factors. Firstly, the whole thing is built with vibration-damping materials, which means you can crank the power up (with a 1800W motor) and not disturb others.
An air management system is also designed to suppress loud noises. And finally, it has a feature you will see a lot on this page – a sound enclosure with a twist-lock that acts as vital insulation to bring down the volume further.
Whether you are a regular blender user at home, or have an open-pan cafe or restaurant, the Vitamix is designed to keep the noise down. I
There are 6 easy-to-use programs that means you don’t need to think – just press a button. Aside from these main modes, you will also have 34 other programs and a mind-blowing 93 speeds to choose from.
The Vitamix Quiet One is simply unsurpassed. It is the premium quiet multifunctional blender.
Pros
- Quietest blender on the marker (64 dB)
- Sound enclosure
- Noise reducing air management
- 10-year warranty
Cons
- On the pricier side
Best for: Quietest blending possible at home or work
#2 – Blendtec Professional 800
Buyers are lining up to praise the Blendtec Professional’s quietness. An excellent alternative to the Vitamix Quiet One at just 67 dB, with a full sound enclosure and blunt blades for smoother blends.
If you are interested in a viable alternative to the Vitamix Quiet One, read about the Blendtec Professional 800.
Not quite as quiet, but around half the price, the 800 will be an excellent compromise for many who want a premium blender with less noise. It has been described as the world’s quietest residential blender – and while you can obviously use the Vitamix Quiet One at home, what that is hinting at is that the Blendtec Professional 800 will be more affordable to homeowners. It’s independently tested as making 67 dB when in operation.
As ever with the quietest blenders on the market, there is a sound enclosure that makes some serious noise reduction wins. Keep this on, and it’s happy days.
User reviews back up the quietness. Here are just a couple. Shosh says on Amazon: “This is quiet. Really quiet. I can run it at 2am even and not bother anyone.” While Smoothie Queen, who also bought the 800 on Amazon, concurs: “The GO Bottle and noise dampening hood are remarkable. The smoothie cycle is 1 minute and is quiet, no earplugs needed!”
What else? Patented ‘blunt blade’ technology provides smoother blends because they are 80% thicker and 10 times stronger than standard blades. It’s another reason why we can describe this 1800W Blendtec Professional 800 as ‘heavy duty’.
There is an easy-to-use touch interface, and we liked the 5-sided wildside jar that cuts the time for making smooth blends. It’s very versatile – coasting through anything from soups to ice creams to smoothies – meaning it can support food prep all the way.
Oh… and there’s a 10-year warranty.
Pros
- Quiet (sound enclosure + innovative airflow system)
- Versatile
- 10-year warranty
Cons
- Relatively big size means medium-large countertop is most suitable
Best for: Busy home kitchens
#3 – WantJoin Professional Blender
A very powerful blender with a sound-reducing shield – this WantJoin model gives you the muscle and capacity for big batches, while still keeping the noise (and price) down.
Let’s take the price down a lot, and the noise only up a little. The WantJoin Professional Blender is another model with a ‘soundproof’ shield – take this description with a pinch of salt; it is not fully soundproof, but it is a quiet blender.
For the price, what this WantJoin gives you is a nice combination of power (2200W) and quietness. Make no mistake, this model has enough muscle power to be used in a professional kitchen for food prep, or just at home.
It’s a heavy-duty blender with quite an attractive design that certainly won’t be an eyesore on the countertop of your kitchen, cafe or restaurant.
A big volume pitcher (88oz – enough for 10 cups) means it can be used for big batches of your favorite smoothies, shakes and soups. There is a feeding hole at the top of the shield cover for convenience, and a tamper to use when you are trying to dislodge hard ingredients during a blend.
There are 15 speeds to choose from, and a 10-year warranty.
Pros
- Quiet (sound enclosure reduces sound by 30%)
- High power (2200W)
- Good value
- 10-year warranty
Cons
- Perhaps bigger and more powerful than required for simple smoothies
Best for: Good value, quiet commercial or regular blending
#4 – Breville Super Q
With smart features, power, speed, a good amount of settings, and – an inoffensive 82 dB noise level, the Breville Super Q has a lot going for it and deserves your consideration.
The Breville Super Q has been measured at 82 dB in independent tests. It has noise suppression tech, which includes a cooling system that brings down operating noise significantly.
But those aren’t the only reasons you might want to put it on your quiet blender shortlist. The truth is, it’s a solid all-rounder that might be within reach of your budget.
Power isn’t an issue, because it has a 1800W motor and 186mph blade tip speed. That means it can blend even the toughest ingredients, quickly.
There are 5 one-touch programs and 12 speed settings – we think that’s about right. There is a personal blender attachment for whirling up quick smoothies, and the good thing is that the intelligent base recognises this automatically, and can optimise performance automatically. And it’s compatible with the Vac Q BBL920, a blending vacuum pump that removes air from the jug for a super smooth blend.
Into the bargain, you’ll get a tamper, a spatula, recipe book and a 10-year warranty
Pros
- Quiet (82 dB with noise suppression technology)
- Powerful and fast
- Good selection of settings
- 10-year warranty
Cons
- No sound enclosure
Best for: Good value quiet all-rounder
#5 – Cranddi Smoothie Blender
You’ll do well to find a more powerful option with a sound enclosure for this price. Not the quietest in the world, but the Cranddi Smoothie Blender is a good low-noise performer.
This is a no-frills quiet option with a moderate capacity that is an excellent choice for smoothie lovers.
Crucially, it has the removable sound cover that insulates noise and makes such a difference. For the price, you also get a high-power 2200W motor – 9 speed controls + Pulse Mode – and 6 lead blades for consistent results.
There is a Self Cleaning mode that will save you from prodding around at the bottom of the jug. It also comes with a tamper and a recipe book.
If you are serious about smoother and want a high-powered performer that won’t break the bank, this Cranddi model is worth a look.
Pros
- Quiet (comes with sound shield)
- Powerful
- Self Cleaning mode
Cons
- Not as quiet as some on this list
- Warranty information not immediately available
Best for: Regular smoothies done quietly
#6 – WaterElfo Quiet Commercial Blender
Quiet at 68 dB, made from quality, long lasting materials and with a solid 9 settings to choose from; this WaterElfo model is a low-noise box ticker.
We know what you are thinking – another quiet blender, so what more is there to say?
Well, the WaterElfo Quiet Commercial Blender does noise reduction differently. It gets down to 68 dB, which is comfortably in the seriously quiet category.
It does this with a sound enclosure that fits over the top of the main jug, but there is also a silicone ‘mute strip’ that sits around its edges. Sealing is an important aspect of all soundproofing, so we aren’t surprised that this allows the WaterElfo to get down to 68 dB.
The WaterElfo is a long-term investment – it is made from multi-angle steel alloy. With 9 settings to choose from, you’ll have what you need to slice down fruit, vegetables, ice and nuts. And it has a decent capacity with 50oz.
Pros
- Quiet (68 dB)
- Durable
- Good value
Cons
- Warranty information not immediately available
Best for: Durable, quiet smoothie maker for commercial or regular home use
#7 – Potlimepan Multifunctional Blender
Good value, cleverly designed drinks blender with a sound shield. This Potlimepan Multifunctional Blender even has a rare feature – the 24-hour preset function.
There’s nothing wrong with a budget buy. The Potlimepan Multifunctional Blender gives you a decent capacity, sound enclosure and plenty of settings.
It doesn’t claim to be a food processor. The Potlimepan Multifunctional Blender is for blending drinks – hot or cold – and blending them quietly.
With a 50oz capacity, you have all you need to get going on smoothies, coffees, milkshakes and soy milk. 600W means it isn’t powerful, but for this kind of drink, you don’t need it to be.
One setting you won’t find on many blenders – a 24-hour preset means you can set the blender to start up at a certain time. You don’t even need to press a button – just wake up to your favourite smoothie ready for you in the jug.
Overall, probably the cheapest blender you will get with a sound shield. But you should note, it isn’t suitable for hard ingredients.
Pros
- Quiet (comes with Sound Shield)
- Decent capacity
- Excellent value
Cons
- Not powerful enough for tough ingredients
Best for: Budget blending of fruit and veg for smoothies
