Reliable but noisy machine June 6, 2008 C. Meyer (Raleigh NC) I've been using this blender daily for the past couple of weeks. It is very sturdy, a little noisy because of the big plastic base but still makes an excellent smoothie if you get the liquid to frozen fruit ratio correct (my problem not its).

A Nice Blender to Have! April 20, 2008 P. Prior (Herndon, VA USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The product has an attractive look. When I ordered this blender I wasn't sure about Factory Re-conditioned product, but it turned out to be as good as a new one! The negatives of this blender, the spout on the glass pitcher is too small, made it harder to pour drinks. Also, there's no cord storage as it mentioned.
Poorly designed, breaks, pours sloppily April 10, 2008 Felix Binder (Lincoln, NE) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
There is, effectively, no spout from which to pour; consequently, I am always making a mess, especially with thick liquid. The bottom blade assembly is poorly designed and has locked up on me twice from crushing ice and blending thick soup. Cuisinart sent me a replacement once, and then, reluctantly, a second time, warning me that this was the last time. Now another cheap plastic piece has broken and they won't replace it. Total piece of junk.
Excellent blender December 8, 2007 Z. Elliott (Sacramento, CA USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Over the course of a few months I had gone through 3 blenders. I was looking for a blender that was heavy duty and durable and found it in this cuisinart. I make protein drinks almost daily and use frozen fruit, ice,ect..this blender handles it with ease and I am totally satisfied. If you need a blender that you can depend on than I recommend the cuisinart CBT-500FR, you can't go wrong and the price is worth every dime spent. The only drawback and it is minor compared to what you are getting over-all is the pouring spout on the pitcher is a little ackward to pour and this means for heavier smoothies or drinks you have to be careful to avoid spillage over the sides. The dependability and power for shakes, protein drinks and smoothies is well worth this one drawback in my opinion.
