Making smoothie's, is a hand blender or regular blender better?

I have a cheapy (under 15) personal size blender, works fine for smoothies. No idea the brand, since I misplaced the cap.

What are you putting in your smoothies?

I've only had that foamy issue with protein powder and water I think, but then they're not smoothies

Cheapo personal blenders, stick/immersion blenders or jug blenders will all work grand for fruit/veg/nuts/oats whatever else you're having, at least in my experience

Nope, blends well.
