Overview
Not a single-purpose smoothie maker, this corded blender pairs a ribbed jar with an asymmetric blade that cuts at several angles. A motor control senses the contents and adjusts speed, while preset programs cover ice crushing, icy drinks and smoothies.
Knob control and a variable dial give hands-on command of texture, from rough marinades to smooth blends. The weight and height are the limitation, since the base is built for a permanent counter spot.
Who it's for
Home cooks who blend something nearly every day and want manual speed control alongside presets will use this well. Occasional blenders, or anyone tight on storage, are better served by a lighter jug.
Pros and cons
- Five speeds plus three preset programs
- BPA-free jar with dishwasher-safe parts
- Motor senses contents and adjusts speed
- Long five-year warranty
- Heavy and tall for under-cabinet storage
- Knob controls only, no digital display
- Corded unit needs a nearby outlet
Performance notes
The ribbed jar walls push ingredients down into the blade, and the asymmetric blade slices from different directions to give an even texture. The motor control reads the load and holds a steady speed through ice or fibrous greens, so results depend mostly on jar fill level and the speed or preset chosen.
