New Zealand made quality product that mixes well and is great when added to shakes.
4/5
Highly recommend! Especially being vegan protein
4.5/5
Love this stuff, it is the only protein powder I would happily drink mixed with water. The vanilla flavour is not too sweet, and the texture is nice and smooth. I’ve been drinking this for about a year now and haven’t got tired of it yet!
4.5/5
This is the best plant protein that I have ever had!
5/5
love balance plant protein powder great in shakes and in porridge
4/5
Balance plant based Vanilla flavour is the best & most genuine vanilla taste out of all the brands I've tried. Mixes smooth & creamy in a blender but a little grainy in a shaker so I don't take it to the gym. It's a smoothie only protein for me, not recommended in a shaker. Flavour kicks ass though
5/5
Flavour is amazing.
4/5
Good flavour

Not as smooth as whey protein. But hoping it is better for me
4/5

5/5
Great tasting protein powder for smoothies and mixed with yoghurt or mashed banana, coconut cream, nut butter and sweet spices(cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, etc) Not to sweet and not heavy in the stomach, digests really well.
5/5
Balance and Prana are my go to plant based protein powders after trying many on the market. Vanilla and Chocolate both excellent tasting, non grainy and mix easily. Plus low fat and good protein content with added BCAA's, Glutamine and digestive enzymes at a good price.
5/5
One of the best protein on the market
4/5
I use Berry every day in my morning berry smoothie. It's one of the nicest tasting plant proteins I have tried with no stomach issues. Definitely helps me in the gym with my training and my recovery.
1.5/5
Has a grainy finishing taste. Wasn’t my cup of tea but hubby didn’t mind it
5/5
So yummy!! Absolutely love this protein powder, tastes just like chocolate milk, and isn't too heavy on the stomach.
5/5
loved this protein powder, tastes amazing and will definitely be buying again
4/5
Good flavour profile for a plant based protein. Not as nice and doesn't mix as well as whey but that's to be expected with all plant based protein. A little grainy/sandy but again it can't be avoided and still goes down very easily without causing the bloating or gassy issues sonetimes associated with whey. Definitely replenishes energy and helps with muscle recovery. I mix mine with soy milk which gives it a good consistency. Would 100% buy it again.
4/5
Pretty decent product. A bit too sweet for my taste but no issues with consistency and taste.
4/5
Vanilla tastes good, mixes a lot better then other flavors
5/5
So so good. It has a really unique berry flavour I haven’t tasted in other protein powders. It mixes really well. Highly recommend!
5/5
Great product!

5/5
Just what I need.
4.5/5
Good product a ted to sweet
5/5
Okay this is definitely the best vegan protein powder I've tried, and I've tried them all! Such a nice texture and goes extremely thick with just water, it's honestly like drinking a chocolate milkshake made with ice cream. A lot of proteins with artificial sweetner give me a major headache straight away, but not this one! would high recommend
5/5
Highly recommended! Won't go back to whey protein again!
4/5
Very nice. Good amount and tasty
5/5
Love this protein, favorite vegan protein! Also Sprint Fit were amazing, I ordered this in the afternoon and it was there the next morning.
5/5
This product is awesome. It is a smooth tasting, effective protein that is gentle on the gut. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has gut issues or who wants a great protein powder.
5/5
Tastes pretty good. Goes down nicely. Handy part inside of the container to hang your scoop on.
4.5/5
Fantastic plant based protein - goes great with unsweetened almond milk!
5/5
Had both vanilla and chocolate. Great flavour. Slightly grainy as basically all vegan protein powders but if you blend it well and add some ice it makes a decent shake! Vanilla is perfect for smoothies as well. Would definitely buy again.
5/5
What a great value for money plant based protein. You get everything you need without breaking the bank. The vanilla can be a bit grainy however it's not a deal breaker for me. The Chocolate and Berry are great. It's a nice thick shake considering it has such low Cals. Highly recommend.
5/5
Great tasting, can’t stand any other brand now
3.5/5
Great product
5/5
I love this brand of protein powder, it's gluten free & different yummy flavours. Defiantely worth the $. I have in smoothies & my partner has milkshakes
4.5/5
This is my go to protein..other ones were affecting my stomach this was not. Out of all the plant based proteins I have tried i have falling on this one. Its a little bit gritty but that's not a bad thing, it's nicest flavour. My one is vanilla!
5/5
Great flavor and value, my go to pea protein!
4/5
Great product, I've been using this for a couple of years now. Great alternative to whey which my stomach doesn't agree with!
5/5
Fantastic product. I was worried it would have a bad taste or texture, but I was wrong to worry. I bought the berry flavor to put in my banana blueberry breakfast smoothies that I have after my morning workout and it's great. I would definitely buy this again.
4/5
Best 'blending' vegan protein! Can actually taste the vanilla too
5/5
I started taking this to supplement my exercise, and I have noticed a big jump in energy since doing so. As a plant-based athlete, I find it is a great help! And it's delicious!
4.5/5
Tastes good and works, what more could you want?!
4/5
This is a house hold favourite we all use it and it’s tasty we usually have ours with berries as well
5/5
Delivery fast and easy. Product Flavour Vanilla Love it in my blend..++++
3.5/5
Very fine. Taste is pretty good. I tried this in my morning smoothie first and it is very fline. The feeling after I had my smoothie was as if I had inhaled very fine dust through my mouth and I wanted to cough. I then tried it on its own with water. It was still quite floury but not as bad as with the smoothie.
3/5
We got the berry flavour. It tastes nice enough but doesn't mix in as well as the whey product. Has a grainy, powdery finish in a shake or smoothie.
5/5
Love this protein, have it in my smoothie every morning. Nice and mild taste, and keeps you going for ages!
4/5
Loving my protein, honestly keeps me full for longer so cant complain.
4/5
Tried the chocolate for the first time. I like it alot , maybe a little sweet for others but for me with a very big sweet tooth I love it haha . Mixes well , very with milk or water without being too thick like others I've tried. Would definitely recommend for a plant based option and would buy again !
5/5
Great product, low in sugar and plant based with a delicious flavour
4.5/5
Love the flavour of this product and it's not too sweet tasting unlike other plant based protein blends. Recommend.
4/5
Tastes alright. Having for the Nutrition content.
5/5
I would never order anywhere else, fastest delivery service!! I’ve been using Balance plant based protein powder for a few years now, and it’s the best pea protein I’ve tried. Doesn’t have that chalkyness to it like some proteins powders. My favourite flavour is vanilla, which you can also put in your morning oats to add extra protein. I do get the berry sometimes just to mix it up, this is great with smoothies! Also LOVE the fact they have such great deals on their products! Will definitely keep ordering. Thanks guys!!
5/5
We purchase this product for my elderly father-in-law and he has this everyday on his morning cereal. Hes not exactly a body builder, but we have found that this is an easy way to provide him with much needed protein to keep his weight in balance. He enjoys it and we can mix it easily into his milk to go on his weetbix. We have tried other formulas but find this one the easiest and nicest one to use.
5/5
Great product, have been using for over a year now
5/5
I do not stomach dairy based protein, so I tried many types, but a year or two ago I tried this and stuck with it ever since. Also Sprint Fit get it to me so fast and sometimes run promotions to throw in a free item, which is cool.
5/5
I’ve been using this for the past 2/3 years. And sprint fit.co.nz is the BEST website, has the fastest shipping!!!!! Since being a vegan, this is the perfect way to get my full dosage of protein. I LOVE the vanilla flavour, and it’s not chalky like other pea proteins which is a bonus. The berry Flavour is also yummy! Chocie not so much. Will definitely keep on purchasing!
4/5
Good Protein
4.5/5
Great protein. Taste good for a plant based protein. Just don't expect it to taste amazingly good considering it is plant based so its gonna taste a bit more 'natural' compared to other non plant based protein powders. Has a good chocolate flavour & mix well
2.5/5
Gave it a try for the first time the flavour was ok but I didnt like the texture. Was still ok to mix in with smoothies though.
5/5
This is the best plant protein I’ve ever tasted! Great consistency and not powdery like a lot of other ones. Mixes really well too!
5/5
This has been my favorite plant protein for nearly 4 years. I feel amazing after it, I can turn into a delicious protein pancake or drink in its own. Taste amazing and gives me all the nutrients I need after my trainings. Nothing beats it !
4/5
Love it. Tastes great. Great company,
5/5
10/10. Excellent product and various tub sizes available, wide range of payment options and fast shipping. Reliable retailer.
5/5
Awesome product with a good berry flavour, definitely sticking with this
5/5
We LOVE our Balance Protein Powder. It tastes so good, not the usual chalky taste that other protein powders have. Even better that it is gluten free and preservative free! Highly recommend.
4/5
As I am not used to protein powder especially pea, (like the taste of it) the berry one was so good!! I bought the chocolate and berry and the chocolate was not very nice I had to hide it in food and add coco powder to tone down the sweetness, but the berry was a lot better! It’s still very sweet for me as I don’t really have anything sweet, but you couldn’t taste the pea protein flavour as much. I am keen to try the vanilla flavour. (P.s the chocolate one was pretty good in pancakes and mixed with weet bix + desiccated coconut + coco powder.) yet to try baking with the berry one.
4/5
Very nice taste, mixes well
5/5
I got the chocolate and the berry, and both actually taste quite good.
5/5
This is a fantastic product that I have used for a few years now. It tastes great and helps me keep my weight down and keeps me feeling full. Fabulous meal replacement. Sprint Fit are great to deal with. My product arrived super fast and the communication and customer service were top notch
5/5
Worth the money love the scoop holder in the container. Enjoying the berry flavor in my smoothies
4.5/5
Good value for money protein powder, tastes alright too compared to other ones. My preference was the vanilla flavour.
5/5
I have been using Balance plant protein now for almost a year. the flavor is to my liking, I make my smoothie up with water, berries, banana, flax seed oil, and a bit of cinnamon sometimes a kale leaf if I have one. The taste to me is very enjoyable, I know the goodness I am getting and miss it when not having it as I did last year when out of the country travelling. For me it is a life saver as a vegan I sometimes find it hard to get enough protein and Balance protein powder fills the gap in the mornings, oh and I sometimes put my oats in as well!! happy days!
3.5/5
The product is refreshing, tastes quite sweet and is also tasty. I've used the chocolate. vanilla and berry versions and love them all.
4.5/5
Love this plant protein. Doesn't taste powdery with milk as some of the other brands do. Vanilla goes amazing with cereal/wheatbix.
4.5/5
Love this protein. For a plant protein it tastes great and mixes well with any liquid. I don't follow any specific plant based diet but thought I would try this as a change from what I would normally get and I love it.
5/5
The Berry flavour is the best by far. It mixes just fine in a shaker as long as you use the correct volume of liquid (350ml).
5/5
The best plant based protein powder ever!! Tastes nice and does a great job of keeping me feeling full and helping me keep my weight down. I love the nutritional package in this too. Wonderful product - the best I have used.
5/5
Second time reviewing this, what can I say? Best protein powder on the market. Healthy and affordable, taste really good too! Can't go wrong thanks again Sprint Fit, got here fast!
4.5/5
Good product with no nasty stuff in it (especially for me not being able to drink milk products). Flavor is nice also.
4/5
Great choice, works and helps as a supplement, tastes good.
5/5
Love this product and the ease of calculating the protein and that it is gluten and dairy free and tastes sooo good too.
5/5
Great product, good price. Sprints delivery times are also amazing.
2.5/5
A little too sweet, also has a weird after taste...
4/5
Chocolate and Berry flavor are ok, both in shakes or with just water. Not too many lumps (less than with brand ON for sure)
4/5
Great alternative for people sensitive to dairy Nice flavour Only downfall is texture is grainy when mixed
5/5
I love the vanilla plant based Balance protein powder. It's so delicious! I'll definitely have to try the chocolate next...
5/5
I love this products! I have a gluten and dairy intolerance and have no issues with this! Summer lunchtime smoothies with this to thicken it up is so yum!!
5/5
I find whey protein tends to bloat me so I've used a plant alternative for the last few year. Generally speaking most non-dairy proteins dont taste great and/or mix poorly. I've found balance has done a great job addressing these issues. It tastes great and mixes really well! Been using it for over a year now.
5/5
Awesome product very good taste and fast delivery really happy with service and product thanks Sprint Fit.
3/5
I like this product, for the price I think it’s good. It flavour isn’t over powering so it’s nice in smoothies. It is quite foamy though and is sort of a grainy texture.
5/5
I Love this Protein powder. I’ve tried many different vegan proteins but this one is my go to now for the past year. The Chocolate is my fave especially if you’ve cut out all sugary treats. The berry flavor is a nice and smooth easy to drink protein and good with my oats. But I found the vanilla too sweet, maybe good for those with a sweet tooth. Whichever one you choose would be great.
4.5/5
Great product, I like the taste of the vanilla flavour and it is excellent value for money
