The Beast Health Mighty 850
Beast Health
When Colin Sapire helped popularise the personal blender with NutriBullet, the category barely existed. Of course, as we now know, the product’s success helped reshape kitchens and habits alike, turning smoothies, acai bowls and the like into something of a daily ritual.
It also, inevitably, triggered a wave of imitators—cheaper, louder, more plastic, more disposable.
So, in something of a recent retaliation, Sapire returned to the space with a very different proposition. Beast Health, his latest venture, is not trying to democratise blending—nor chasing the algorithmic churn of wellness trends—but is positioning itself as a premium, design-forward blender system built around durability, restraint and longevity. A corrective, of sorts, to what the category became.
“My experience at NutriBullet showed me how whole-food nutrition can transform lives, and that understanding drove everything when I set out to create Beast,” Sapire says. “It was built from a genuine passion for health and wellness, believing that your health is paramount and a high-quality tool that supports that lifestyle is essential.”
The key differentiator with Beast, arguably, is visual. Early personal blenders were designed to disappear, a true thrill to store away once their job was done, but Beast, by contrast, assumes it will live on the kitchen counter permanently.
“It needed to be a daily driver for becoming the best version of yourself,” Sapire says. And that ambition explains many of the brand’s technical decisions.
Beast’s ribbed Tritan™ blending vessels are engineered to increase turbulence during blending, and are significantly thicker than the market average, a choice intended to prevent warping and extend product life. According to Sapire, achieving the final vessel design took years of development and required a complex triple-injection manufacturing process.
“One of the most challenging innovations to engineer was the ribbed blending vessel,” he says, “because it was designed entirely to elevate the user experience and deliver the smoothest, fastest blend possible.”
The motor design also departs from the norms of the category. Beast uses a copper-coiled motor—a feature the company says improves electrical conduction and helps maintain consistent performance. Sapire is frank about what he was aiming for. “I really wanted to create the ‘Porsche of personal blenders,’” he says.
And in that vein, despite its engineering credentials, Beast is intentionally simple to use. Each system operates via a single button, offering either a pulse function or a 60-second blend cycle designed to handle most ingredients without any manual adjustment.
Both the ‘Mighty’ and ‘Mega’ systems are built around portability, too, with blending vessels that double as drinking cups, complete with storage lids and straw systems.

The logic is straightforward: the fewer steps between intention and consumption, the more likely the habit is to stick. And it’s working for the company so far. Albeit not without a few caveats.
Since its U.S. launch in 2021, Sapire says Beast Health has taken a deliberately cautious approach to growth. Hardware, particularly premium hardware, comes with unavoidable challenges—inventory risk, supply chain exposure, servicing and warranty obligations—and Beast has chosen to address those before accelerating expansion.
“We’ve really focused on building a customer experience team that’s genuinely committed to helping our customers and that has a true passion for our mission,” Sapire says.
Beast’s “Beastmode” collaboration with former NFL player Marshawn Lynch brought early visibility in the U.S., but Sapire is cautious about celebrity partnerships more broadly, and the same restraint applies to capital strategy.
“Our approach to investment has been focused on building a strong foundation and sustainable business,” Sapire says. Future raises remain a possibility, but only if they support long-term objectives.
“As we continue to scale internationally, we try to stay thoughtful about the inherent challenges,” he adds. “Taking what we’ve learned over the past four years in the U.S. market, we apply a calculated yet common-sense approach and work closely with trusted partners who share the same goals.”

Last year’s UK launch marked Beast’s biggest step in that strategy, and Sapire says the challenge in entering new markets is not awareness, but calibration.
“It’s important that we keep our brand identity and our focus on health and wellness, while recognising that each market has its own customs, food culture, and expectations,” he says.
To broaden exposure, Beast secured placements with Harrods and Selfridges, as well as premium independent retailers, but Sapire was keen to make sure it happened alongside its direct-to-consumer business, rather than replace the brand’s relationship with its customers.
“Retail and wholesale partnerships give us additional touchpoints,” he says, “but they complement rather than replace the direct connection we prioritise with our community.”
And they won’t stop here. Following launches in the Middle East and Taiwan, Beast plans to expand into Japan, Australia and South Africa by the end of 2026.
Asked where Beast fits in five years’ time, Sapire’s answer is notably unflashy.
“Five years from now, I see Beast continuing to play a meaningful role in the wellness and kitchen space,” he says. “Our goal is to make consuming whole-foods more accessible and to improve people’s lives globally.”
It’s a vision rooted less in disruption than in correction—an attempt to slow a category down and give it weight again. And in a market fatigued after years spent chasing novelty, I’d daresay it’s a brilliant bet.
