This is the blender of the future. It performs all the traditional blending tasks (crushing ice for margaritas, thinning ice cream) plus it can be used like a food processor (mincing garlic, puréeing peppers). The wide jar is rounder and squatter than old-style blenders, which makes it easier to reach in and scrape the sides (when the blender is off!). To reduce splatters of strawberry daiquiri, the Step Start feature starts blending slowly, then picks up to the chosen speed. This blender also comes with a booklet containing 75 recipes--my favorite is the Frosty Chocolate Raspberry Latté. --Dana Van Nest Editor's Choice:KitchenAid's five-speed blender has a number of functions that set it above the crowd as our choice for best blender under $100. It starts with the five speed settings and the pulse function, which works at any of the speeds--a really nice touch. The blender's 40-ounce glass jar has a squat shape, making it more manageable than taller blenders, and comes completely apart.
Product Description
Whirl up a fruit and yogurt smoothie to get your morning off to a healthy and energetic start. Or wind down after work with an icy cold margarita. But that's not all: chop ice, grind coffee beans, puree soup and much, much more.

 The worst investment I ever made September 24, 2008

I purchased two of these blender a long time ago from Amazon and another one from the NAVY Exchange when I started my small catering business. I only used one for two months when the rubber that propells the blade started chipping off. Called KitchenAid and they gave me a company name that charged about $35 to replace the blade. Needless to say that the same thing happend to the other two and now I am looking for a cheap blender that is durable to use. KitchenAid blender is not living up to its brand name indeed.

It will last for 10 hours of use if you're lucky. Rubber gear on top will brake, but not hard to replace. Problem is the control board that goes bad and nothing but blinking lights when you turn it on. See the reviews for the white version of same blender for the same set of problems. Stay away from this one.

I expect a high-end blender such as this to last for more than a year and a half. And, of course, Kitchen Aid's warranty is for one year! Argh.

The blade is a poor design and has a hard time making margaritas. The coupler between the motor and the blades has shredded twice now, leaving parties hanging. Shoot the product manager, this is a poor excuse for a $150 blender.
