Preethi Blue Leaf Platinum Mixer Grinder Review is here to offer you an insight into the product’s specifications. Not just but a better knowledge of the details can help you into a better understanding of whether the product applies to your needs or not. As one might know, Preethi is one of the best brands in the Indian domestic market. Despite its rather ‘national’ origins, the product is as competitive as any International brand. This product is one of the best-sellers and is quite popular among users. So, let’s get into the details about the product.
Let us start with the basics. The jars of the product are available in four different sizes and capacities:
- 300 ml Grind N Store Chutney Jar
- 1.2-litre Multipurpose Jar
- 1.7-litre Wet Grinding Jar
- 1.5-litre Juicer Jar
Also available is the 400 ml storage container that can also be fixed on the Grind N Store Chutney jar. The smallest Grind N Store jar comprises stainless steel interiors and an ABS plastic exterior. Here the lid is also made from food-grade plastic. As for the regular jars, these are all stainless steel products and include Polycarbonate plastic lids. The lids are made of plastic and are fixed in place with the help of screws. This arrangement is made from the inside of the jar. It is important to mention this point in the preethi blue leaf review, as the food tends to accumulate in and around the screws inside the jars.
As for the build, the jars are pretty strong, with an impressive 0.8 mm thickness, and the blades have a 1.2 mm thickness. The unique feature of the Grind N stone jar is that the blades include a zig-zag edge. As for the multipurpose jar, it comprises 4prong blades of various lengths that ensure the even grinding of the food products.
Also, there is present an additional chopping blade with the Mixer Grinder. This can easily be fixed within the Mixer grinder jar and be used to chop the veggies as required. What’s more, surprisingly, this can also be used for mice meat! However, one must know that the Preethi Blue leaf Platinum Mixer Grinder does not comprise a tall filter at the centre, much like the other products and brands in the category.
Worth a mention is the fact that there are present screws at the bottom and the side of the jars that are used to hold the handles in place. These have bulging heads; hence, a lot of grime accumulates in and around this bulge. Not just that, but these screws can also loosen out after a couple of use. We suggest flat-head screws that stay put in place and do not have ingredients sticking to them.
The Motor
The product has an impressive 750W motor with pure copper motor winding of superior quality. This is much better than the Aluminum windings found in some of the other machines.
In this product, the Motor housing has a unique tear-drop design and comprises a power-ON indicator, and with the help of the knob, one can select from the 3-speed levels of the Mixer Grinder. Also included is the Pulse feature that allows people to use it for specific utility. However, one of the major drawbacks of the motor housing designs is that there is a gap on top through which any spillage of sorts can flow to the outside. But let me tell you that this gap is rather narrow and is tough to clean properly.
The Performance
With a fairly good performance from the 750 W motor of the appliance, it can run for a continuous 5 minutes at a stretch. However, give it a 2-minute rest after every continuous run. So, overall, one can run the appliance continuously for 30 minutes, with a rest period of 45 minutes before the next major run.
The motor can run for a maximum speed of 11000 cycles with the load included. When checked using a Tachometer, it was found that the 1st speed was 17K RPM, and the 3rd speed was an RPM of 18.5K cycles.
As for the grinding, an excellent performance is observed regarding the Pepper and other hard spices like Garam masala and Turmeric. The coarse leftovers were quite a few, and the rest of the grinding was well done. As for the Ginger-Garlic paste, while the general consistency was quite good, nevertheless, a few chinks were found at the bottom.
The Wet grinding of the product is the star of the performance, as the jar has a good 1.75 L of capacity. It can be used to grind the Idli and Dosa batter for 4-7 members of a family. As for the batter consistency, it is quite smooth, and it takes under a minute to prepare the batter. Also, no heating up was found during and after the operation. It is essential to mention the jars in the preethi platinum mixer grinder review. Here the best is the Store jar which can easily grind spices, chutneys and anything else you might need.
As for the Juicer jar, it is much like the rest of the jars in the category. It can easily be used to prepare Watermelon and Apple juices; however, it is not a good choice for Citrus juices, as the seeds are also ground with it. Also, preparing the Coconut milk could be a better idea in this Mixer Grinder, as the pulp is left behind. As for the grinding and crushing of the ice, the wet grinder can be easily used.
The Safety
The preethi platinum mixer grinder review would be incomplete without talking about the safety features. Here, aspects like the Shock-proof body, insulated wire, overload protection and Vacuum feet are among some striking features. As for the leakproof lids, well, it is missing in the Preethi Blue Leaf Platinum Grinder.
The Noise Levels
It is quite noisy, with about 80Db of sound when in operation.
Cleaning and Maintenance
As for the main jars, these are easy to clean. However, it is recommended that the user add a few drops of dish wash liquid and fill the jars in half with water, then run it for 30 seconds. This is one of the best methods to clean the jars well. As for the chutney jars, these are tough to clean as food ingredients tend to get stuck in between the plastic and the stainless steel part of the jars. Hence reaching out to clean this is another major task. The same can be said about the screws used to fix the handles, and the jar lock base tends to protrude, which has the food ingredients accumulating in there. As for the screws at the bottom, these are thought to reach too.
Warranty and the After-sales
The product includes a 2-year warranty period and a 5-year warranty on the motor alone. For the first two years, the brand takes charge of the manufacturing defects, and repairing and replacing are done for free. After this, too, no service fees are charged.
Preethi Blue Leaf Platinum Mixer Grinder Review: The Conclusion

One can easily opt for this product with basic applications and high efficiency. It is more than good when taking care of some of the most important food–prep work in the kitchen. Overall, a good product if you are on a budget.
