my fruit are always apples or pineapples and i use spinach mostly ...

thank you for all the help

Answer 1

The pineapple might be tough for the hand blender to chew up, but may work. I've made lots of smoothies with a hand blender, and I usually use berries - not pineapple or apples.  The power level and quality of the hand blender will be important here.
