5 out of 5 stars Great Product!   January 18, 2008

Powerful, big motor, I love the 1/2 gallon stainless container, perfectly smooth drinks without unwanted ice or fruit chunks. Outstanding for a variety of uses including salsas, dips, soups, sauces, cocktails, fruit smoothies, margaritas, anything you can think of. The heavy-duty, self-aligning guides the pitcher right in to place.

I've had this blender for a year now, and it is definitely worth the money. The stainless jar does not hold food odors from, say, a super-garlicky chipotle adobado sauce to pina coladas, it's easy to clean, and will not shatter from physical or thermal shock. But the real beauty is the 1/2 hp motor. Even under the heaviest demand, like hummous, a pitcher of frozen daquiris or a 1/2 gallon batch of chile d'arbol hot sauce, this thing just keeps on grinding without so much as a complaint. Haven't even been able to get it hot, unlike several so-called "commercial strength" blenders I've ended up burning out. Pricey, yes, but if you do a lot of high volume, heavy-duty blending, this is the one you want.

It's never leaked. I've never had to replace the blades. Reasonably easy to disassemble/assemble for deep cleaning, though this is usually unecessary if you're diligent about rinsing it right after use. And the coupling with the motor has never slipped, like it used to do on my old Waring. Sure, this one doesn't have the show-car looks of the chrome and glass Waring; it's built for power and utility, not show. Kind of like comparing a 1957 Cadillac to a Caterpillar backhoe.

The only thing they could have done better was the standard vinyl center-removable lid. With the abuse I put my kitchen tools through, it cracked after a few months. A more durable metal lid would have been nice, but luckily mine came with an extra (smaller, smoked vinyl) blender jar and lid, so no worries.
