Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description
Equipped with a 1000-watt motor, this durably built countertop blender delivers the power needed for everything from blending up fruit smoothies before work or protein shakes after a work out to pureeing soup for dinner or mixing up frozen beverages when gathering with friends on a Friday night. The machine's Power6 TurboEdge design creates a strong vortex for thoroughly blended ingredients, while its automatic pre-set programs combine timed pauses with bursts of power for excellent results--choose from Smoothie, Ice Crush, or Pulse functions. A lightweight, 64-ounce, BPA-free, Tritan co-polymer jar comes included, complete with easy-to-read measuring marks up the side, a generous comfort-grip handle, a secure-fitting lid, and a drip-free pouring spout. Other highlights include a rugged die-cast metal base, low and high speed settings, backlit buttons, a count-up timer with an audible signal after four minutes of blending time, and a handy stand-by mode. Sleek and stylish, the blender measures 8-2/5 by 10-2/5 by 14-3/5 inches.

5Lots of power!
By T. Mehrens
A very powerful blender but it takes a bit of learning to get the results you want.

It tends to put a lot more air into the mix compared to other blenders so you need a bigger glass when you are ready to serve whatever you have mixed.

Don't drop the ice i a little at a time. Put it all in at once and then use the appropriate setting to mix the drink. In my first attempt with new new unit I dropped the ice in a little at a time and the blended drink froze up so quickly that the last pieces of ice didn't get chopped/blended into the drink.

Easy to clean using a little dish detergent and water (mix), bottle brush or the blade assembly can be removed if you have something that has gotten really stuck in the bottom of the container.

5Best blender ever!
By Trudy Rose
I looked at what seemed to be a million blenders. I do a lot of vegan and raw foods but I didn't want to spend upwards of $400. I love this blender! It has handled everything I hoped it would, including frozen fruits for smoothies. It is very quiet for a blender. I like the die-cast base, the simple controls (who really needs 14 settings?), and the pulse setting. The only minor flaw is the difficulty in getting out the last 1/4 cup of whatever I've made. Overall, I very much recommend this blender.

4a month in and i'm still glad a bought it
By ChaseBase
This is a great blender for the dollar, and about a month after the purchase I'm quite pleased. The only design problems I've identified is that, with such a large container, the end that is shaped for pouring isn't quite big enough and liquid can go over the edges if one is not careful. Also, I like the buttons in general -- a huge improvement on my old blender -- but having to toggle it on and off after running a program like ice crush (for mixed drinks) seems a bit quirky.
