The moment you see the Tiger Edge SLB-A100 Slanted Mixer, you'll understand why it won the 2023 iF Design Award, one of the most prestigious prizes in the design world: the idea of creating a cup with a tilt that has the cutting mechanism on the side instead of the bottom goes against everything we know about how a blender should be and is certainly worth a prize, but does it also make it more functional? The answer is a resounding yes: exactly because of this tilt, the Edge not only makes your smoothies and juices well, smoother, but also grinds even whole fruits!
The trick is the positioning of its four-blade mill: it not only allows the device to attack the ingredients better but also helps separate the water in three currents and therefore steers even the tiniest bit to the blades. The cup has a capacity of one liter, the mill's rotation can be set at 10 steps depending on the hardness of the ingredients or the consistency you want, plus it's a compact 17.1 x 35.2 x 33.2 cm (6.7 x 13.9 x 13.1") so won't take up a lot of your valuable kitchen space. If there's such a thing as a next-generation blender, the Tiger Edge SLB-A100 Slanted Mixer is definitely it!
