Product Description
From Amazon.ca
Equipped with a durable 0.9 horsepower motor, this countertop blender works great for making anything from pureed soup, salsa, and hummus to protein shakes, smoothies, or margaritas to serve to friends on a Friday night. Choose from five speed settings for stirring, chopping, mixing, pureeing, or liquefying, or select the "pulse" function for an extra burst of power at any speed or the "ice-crush" function when making slushy frozen drinks. The unit's sharp blade thoroughly combines ingredients, while its Intelli-Speed electronic sensor automatically adjusts the power to maintain a consistent speed even with thicker mixtures. In addition, the blender provides a 48-ounce glass jar with an inner-lock collar for safety, a secure-fitting lid, a generous easy-grip handle, and a drip-free pouring spout for graceful serving. Other highlights include a user-friendly control panel with LCD lighting, an easy-to-clean design, and a sleek, modern look that will complement any kitchen decor. With its solid die-cast metal base that comes in a variety of fashionable colors, the blender measures 9 by 7-1/4 by 14-2/3 inches.

Bought this blender based on the reviews I read on this and other sites. It landed here at $149 with all taxes and shipping in. It blends fine, seems powerful enough and is fairly quite. We use it daily for smoothies and it will crush ice and frozen fruit without a problem. It cleans easily and over all seems like a decent machine. Time will tell on how durable it is but the construction looks solid. Wanted the stainless color but it cost more and did not seem worth the extra.

1. Eccentric shape of glass jar makes for easier emptying.
2. Locking mechanism of jar to base is greatly improved - simpler, sturdier, easy on, easy off.
3. Base gasket easier to install/remove.
4. Easy wash [I prefer by hand].
5. Stable
6. Noisy, but that's expected,
7. Blends well even though blades aren't sharp; a safety feature
8. Better than 2 other brands which preceded it and better than the older KitchenAid

So far I am fairly satisfied with this blender. The motor is extremely powerful, and it does a great job on soups, smoothies, anything liquid.
I would have given this item 5 stars, if not for the fact that the ice crushing mode turned out very scary. The first time I used it for this, I put in about 5 cubes directly from my freezer and used the "crush ice" setting. The pulsing movement seemed to be working fine, but, on about the 4th pulse a big chunk of glass blew out of the side of the jar. Some glass stayed inside the jar, and got shredded on the next pulse, before I could shut it off, damaging the blades. I called KitchenAid Canada and told the rep what had happened, and they replaced the jar and the base; the parts arrived in about a week, and I did not have to send back the damaged parts as proof of loss. This is customer service as it should be!
In short, great blender, fantastic customer service, wear safety goggles if crushing ice!

Function and style
I had read reviews saying that this machine wasn't working to make super smooth smoothies for people. Wrong, it makes great smoothies. Read more

Excellent rendement
Fonctionne très bien. Il est seulement un peu bruyant comparativement à mon ancien modèle. Je le suggère tout de même.

powerful
a great little machine for a decent price to produce smoothies and crush ice, replacing the totally inadequate inefficient magic bullet

Disappointed
I expected much better performance from a Kitchen Aid product. The motor would stink up the kitchen when making a protein drink with a frozen banana. Read more

Nice!
Came so fast!
I have had this blender for a couple weeks now and didn't experience any seal issues at all. We have used it at least twice a day and have no complaints. Read more

Durable and strong!
I've been using this blender for a few months, making mostly smoothies from frozen fruit (which burned out my cheaper blender). This one has no issues at all with heavy duty use.

Overall good blender
The blender came just as described, it works well and does the job! I'm giving it 4 stars just because it's louder than what I thought it would be, but definitely a great addition... Read more
