KOIOS 4-In-1 Immersion vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion Side-by-Side Comparison

By , , , and ·Updated
KOIOS 4-In-1 Immersion vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion

Overall Verdict

Both these models are low-range blenders, but the KOIOIS 4-in-1 somehow managed to churn out smoother results, from smoothie to puree soup to mayonnaise. Another reason why we much prefer and would like to recommend the KOIOIS 4-in-1 over the UTALENT 5-in-1 is its more pleasant user experience with more responsive buttons and a smoother operating motor.

Of course, at under $50, your KOIOIS won’t come with many special features. It is just an average bender that deals with most light-duty tasks without blowing your mind, but given its more efficient performance compared with not only the UTALENT 5-in-1 but also other low-priced blenders we tested, we believe it is your only practical choice in this range.
