 Ruined it in less than a week July 6, 2008
Gv Florida (Florida)
We decided to start making smoothies with frozen fruit, and the old blender wasn't working well, so we replaced it with this model. It's definitely more powerful, blending the frozen fruit effortlessly. But the design is horrible. I made a mistake and started it without having the pitcher properly seated on the base. In about two seconds, it had totally stripped the locking teeth and now no longer works at all.
While it was my fault for not making sure that it was locked in place before starting it, I wouldn't have expected a $100 blender to become a worthless piece of junk from such a common, easily made mistake.
Fine product July 3, 2008

Biggest issue I have had with blenders in the past is frozen drinks. I like them very icy and most blenders are unable to keep blending because the ice is too solid. I thought the shape of this blender's container and the position of the blades would make it work better. And it does slightly better job, but my opinion is no traditional blender can do a great job on icy drinks.
Overall the blender is a quality product and good design, cleanup is easy. However, they don't recommend throwing it in the dishwasher every time, so only time will tell if it holds up for me.
 Nice choice. July 2, 2008

In the few weeks since we got this blender we have used it at least every other day.
It stays on the counter near the matching-color KitchenAid mixer and looks great. The performance is great; malts, smoothies, veggie drinks, margueritas, and cooking/pureeing jobs are no problem to use and clean-up.
The 12 mo. warranty is impressive as well.
I recommend this mid-priced appliance for looks function and price.
 Satisfactory July 1, 2008

This blender works fine. It doesn't work great. It doesn't process small amounts of food well without a lot of work to get the food to the blade. I've had it for around 4 months now and it's getting the job done just fine though. I just wish it was a bit easier to use for the smaller tasks.
Works well...but LOUD June 18, 2008

We originally had the previous model of this blender with a glass jar. We loved it and had it for 2 years before the motor burned out. I feel it worked hard for its price. My husband used it twice daily to make thick protein shakes. When we received our new polycarbonate version, the motor burned out in just a few days. Amazon was great and sent a replacement and we've been using the new one with no problems for over a month now. Love the large capacity, polycarbonate jar. It works well, but very noisy. Overall, pretty good purchase.
