I live in a small space and wanted a smaller food processor and a blender and this seemed to be a great solution. In principle it is a really good idea but the manufacturer should have included hearing protection. I use my earplugs when I use this machine. It's as loud as a skill saw. The blender design is such that there are always chunks in my smoothies. I can't make a full recipe of meatloaf in the processor.
I'm going to have my old Cusinart DLC-7 repaired and go back to it. Get more detail about Cuisinart SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor.

Great look, worked great, hit at the party every time. Just today started to notice chrome flaking off from the inside near blades. No replacement parts anywhere. Probably going to buy another brand.Get more detail about L'Equip Model 228 R.P.M Blender - by LEquip.

The Breville Blender is a well designed product with good controls. It's excellent at crushing ice and I've had blenders that couldn't get it right. Haven't found an instance where I wasn't completely satisfied with this (new or used). Get more detail about Remanufactured Breville XXBBL600XL IKON Hemisphere Blender.

I got this blender two weeks ago and have been using it to make milkshakes. It works very well, but sometimes you need to blend twice to make sure all the fruit lumps have moved around and been blended. Upsides: it's stylish, matches my toaster, and the whole thing feels good quality. The jug is made of nice heavy glass and the blender is sturdy. It's also not too noisy. Downsides: it's expensive. I bought it as a visual treat for myself, so if you just need something that does the job, you might be better off with something cheaper. If you need something super-fancy that makes bar quality margaritas, pls read some of the other reviews...Re seller: this blender is actually available in several colors from various different vendors for vastly different prices, i.e. this is not the only entry in the Amazon catalog. I recommend doing a specific search on the blender, and seeing what comes up. Also, I recommend getting the one shipped by Amazon/Target. Some of the other reviews weren't very happy with the other sellers and I read most of them. So this is something to keep in mind.

These plastic jars just don't last. I don't know how this even qualifies as a viable product. We have to replace ours every several months. We don't do anything abnormal with it. Smoothies mainly, and we use our icemaker to pre-crush the ice for it (since we know it's so sensitive). It doesn't take long for cracks to appear, and then come the sticky leaks that get all over the blender and the counter. And, it's so expensive. Unfortunately, our blender (the KSB-580, which is similar to the 560, I think) doesn't take the standard glass jar. Big mistake on our part. At some point, I guess, we'll need to buy a new blender so we don't have to keep replacing the jar. Argh.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSB56POB Blender Jar with Black Lid.

This will probably sound shallow to the blender connoisseurs out there, but after reading the reviews comparing and contrasting Blendtec with Vitamix (its main rival), I chose the Blendtec in the end because I couldn't stand the idea of paying a fortune for the Vitamix that is (in my opinion) really unattractive :). The Blendtec, on the other hand, is fantastically sharp-looking on the counter. I use it daily and it performs like a dream. It is goof-proof. Decide what you want it to do and push the corresponding button. It turns itself off when it's done, and counts down the seconds digitally while it's working.

I use it almost solely for smoothies and it is every bit as good as the Vitamix that I borrowed from a friend for several weeks when I was test-driving these (expensive) machines. When you're spending so much cash on a kitchen appliance, you don't want buyer's remorse. I was thrilled to discover the Blendtec right before I was about to plunk down $500 for a Vitamix.

Another perhaps shallow reason I chose Blendtec over Vitamix is that the Vitamix is too tall to rest under my upper cabinets, whereas the Blendtec is just the right height. But if you think about it, this is not a trivial difference, because one is much more likely to use a machine that doesn't have to dragged out of hiding.

In my situation, the decision to get rid of my perfectly operable and nearly-new Cuisinart and to pay so much for the Blendtec was a matter of health. I have a young husband with stage IV cancer and I thought it was imperative to have a top-notch machine to make healthful smoothies and shakes into which I could add supplements like protein powders and extra vitamins and minerals. The Cuisinart, while a nice machine, just couldn't touch what the Blendtec does, which is make smooth as silk drinks without any grit or unblended material at the bottom.

According to the manual, this machine can also create ice cream and warmed soup. Once my husband is cured, I will branch out beyond smoothies and hope to enjoy many years of fun and experimentation with this gorgeous workhorse!Get more detail about BlendTec HP3A Blender - Red.
