Overview
A frequent smoothie maker gets a handful of preset programs, variable speed with a pulse function and a digital timer on touch buttons, with a tamper prompt on screen. A recipe book is packed in.
Preset programs plus manual speed control are the reason to look. The limit is one container and a body that needs a good deal of counter height.
Who it's for
Households blending daily and cleaning with the self-clean cycle. Those with low cabinets or a wish for personal cups should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Five preset programs
- Variable speed and pulse
- Tamper indicator on screen
- Add time button
- Tall for low cabinets
- One container included
- Zinc base is heavy
Performance notes
Laser-cut stainless blades driven by a large motor set the fineness, and the preset programs fix time and speed so results repeat. The on-screen tamper indicator shows when thick blends need pushing down. The self-cleaning cycle handles washing.
