How to choose

Look at the motor first. All six models use a 500 W motor, so power does not separate them. If you want a bigger motor, read our best 750 watt mixer grinder page.

Then read the warranty. Bajaj gives one year. Prestige, Crompton and Philips give two. Preethi alone adds five years on the motor.

Next, check safety. Preethi, Prestige, Crompton and Philips each describe an overload feature, so four of the six state overload protection. The two Bajaj pages do not.

Prestige says its lids are leak-proof and its jar locks reduce vibration. Philips describes a large knob and high-grip handles.

Compare the weights and sizes that are given. Philips gives 2.7 kg. Prestige gives 21 x 21 x 24.5 cm. No other page in this list gives either figure.

Compare the wet jars. The Bajaj models list 1.2 litres. The Prestige Apex lists 1200 ml. The Preethi Tiara lists 1.2 litres as its largest jar. Philips lists 1.25 litres. Crompton states no volumes. The wet jars are close in size, so the choice rests on other points.

For a smaller set, see the best two and three jar mixer grinder list. For more jars on a bigger motor, the best mixer grinder with 4 or more jars guide covers further options. For juicing, use the best juicer mixer grinder page.

Verdict

Choose the Preethi Tiara as the best overall, for the longest motor warranty, and the Crompton DS 500 BLKX for a named cooling feature. Choose the Prestige Apex for detailed body and safety facts. Choose the Philips HL7505 for listed speed and weight.

The two Bajaj models suit buyers who want a simple set. For other sizes, browse our best mixer grinder guide or the wider mixer grinders section.

Confirm the model on the retailer page before you pay. Bajaj sells the Rex and the GX-1 with almost the same jar sizes, so the title is the quickest way to tell them apart. Ask the seller about anything marked not stated above.
