Blenders are probably the loudest kitchen appliance. The glass is loud but seen as required for visual effects and cleanliness. In theory there should be a way to blend that is not that loud, or at least is insulated.
Even if it wouldn't be a "serious" startup project, it would be a good brain exercise for startup people to think of a way to engineer a disruptive quiet blender.
Not to completely ruin the exercise, but think of marketing a blender that's so quiet it could blend homemade baby food while the baby sleeps. Or imagine selling quiet blenders to sports bars you can see the video commercial already of the old fashioned loud blender noise drowning out the "big play". Or a blender so quiet you can keep talking while having a margarita party. Or a blender so quiet you can mix a drink while watching a movie at home without hitting "pause".
- eptcyka 5y agoThe noise a blender makes is also proportional to what is being blended. If you were to try and blend a thick liquid, it'd be far quieter than blending frozen strawberries, for instance. There isn't much one can do about this. Speaking of blending frozen strawberries, be aware that frozen berries can destroy cheaper blenders.
