The only complaint I would have for this smoothie maker is it took way too long to come out on the market. This is a great smoothie maker for the price. It chops through ice and frozen fruit like it is butter, never any ice chips. As long as frozen fruit and ice are allowed to sit in the liquid portion for about 20-30 seconds and then blended, there are no problems with chunks or smoothie maker motor failure.Get more detail about Back to Basics SM700 Signature II Smoothie Maker, Black.

Great blender until about a month later when the 'Jar' cracks. Look online and you'll see dozens of people with the same problem. Motor is great, but the plastic container cracks and leaks. Also look online and you'll see that replacement jars are not available. Villaware should be ashamed--especially since the motor is so great. They just don't stand behind their products ... or their customers. Don't waste your money. Get more detail about Villaware Pro Infinity Blender V001-43100.

I bought this blender to bring to work, and of course the cheap price is what attracted me (since I was leaving it there). I make supplement shakes every day for lunch with frozen fruits in it. This blender makes the best shakes BY FAR! I have a $150 Cuisinart blender at home, and even that does not compare to how smooth and fast this blender works. Another nice thing is that the blade is a part of the container which makes it very east to clean. This blender is fantastic!Get more detail about Proctor Silex 58130R 8 Speed Blender with 48oz Jar.

This blender is a piece of junk. Don't waste your money on it. Mine didn't crush ice well, and like the other review states, it stopped working after about 20 usages. The motor died - very cheap quality.Get more detail about Oster 6804 Core 16-Speed Blender with Glass Jar, White.

Every once in awhile I enjoy a protein shake; so every once in awhile I need a dependable blender. That's where the OSTER 14 SPEED BLENDER comes in. Just put in your ingredients, replace the lid, hold on and mix. 'Tis best to use the intermediate speeds; if you go up on the high end speeds the blender tends to get a little. . .agitated.

This Oster oozes convenience. Easy touch push button controls. A scratch-resistant "glass" jar that you can toss in the dishwasher. The 450 watt motor is more than sufficient (who in the world will be trying to blend their ratchet set, for example?). And although I've never attempted to crush ice, this product does have the stainless steel "Ice Crusher" blade. Maybe it would crush a rib eye, but I'm not going to find out (although I've been known to do wackier things).

So Osterize your shakes, your snacks, your fruit blends, your veggie smoothies, your Milk of Magnesia constitutionals, with the OSTER 14 SPEED BLENDER. Being mixed up can taste good.

I bought it because of it's nice design and high tech features. I also liked the metal housing, so I bought it. First issue was a leaking jar, received a new one from oster and it leaked too. Bought the glass jar, it worked good until all the plastic tabs on the bottom broke off and the unit thought that the jar was not on top of the blender. Then after a year the cog broke while making ice cream shakes. I have thrown it in the trash and will buy a cheap blender next time. Oster should have gone back to their old roots and built a sturdier machine for what they charge.Get more detail about Oster 6710 In2itive New Tech Blender and Food Processor with LCD Screen, White.

I agree with the other reviewer--it's a great product. I think you're supposed to hand wash the cups, but mine have done fine in the dishwasher. I also bought it for protein shakes and it makes it MUCH easier than using a full blender. The reason I only gave it 3 stars is because mine died after just about 3 months. I think it's because some of the liquid entered the motor unit, which is why I'm not bothering with returning it despite the warranty. I've had some problems with it sealing well after taking the gasket off to clean the blade unit; seems the gasket just didn't fit well after that (and one of the gaskets moved and got cut by the blades while it was operating). But it's hard to clean it well without removing the gasket. Despite that, I'm probably going to buy another one and hope I don't have that problem again because I use this everyday.Get more detail about MaxiMatic EPB1700 Elite Cuisine 15 piece Personal Blender Set.
