My husband started making smoothies for breakfast and our old, inefficient blender was hard to clean. Santa surprised him with the new Kitchen Aid blender. It's a hit!

Like so many others I had the circuit board go bad after only a handful of uses in the first season. When I called for parts, (as mine had a limited lifetime warranty), KitchenAid said they no longer supply the circuit board and I would need to purch ... ase another new machine.

I wanted a bender that would be great for crushing ice and making smoothies. It crushes ice quickly and works really well, I crush about 2 cups of ice no problem All blenders are going to be noisy, especially when crushing ice but it's really not that bad considering I expected it.

looks great; durable; easy to clean; powerful

some noise

I used this blender every morning (for a week) to make my smoothies, the only disappointment in my opinion, it's too loud & vibrates too much for me at this price point!

Beautiful Blender; Easy To Clean; Powerful

Too loud; Unstable

I love how easy the buttons are to use on this blender. I also love how sturdy the machine especially the way the container sits on the base. I also like the way the power cord can be tucked away on the bottom of the base. It's not the most quiet machine but it works great!

i like the sturdiness of this blender...it mixes really well and I love the colours...

very sturdy

Loud

i have only had this item for about a week, but compared to previous blenders this one seems to be the most powerful i have used..

This is definitely an efficient blender. When I make a shake the liquid does tend to go all the way up the sides and I have to scrape it down which is a bit annoying. Nevertheless, I am happy with this product.

Capacity; Easy to clean; Even Mixing; Heavy Duty

Heavy

I used this blender to make frappuccino the other day. It came out pretty good! It seems to be a good blender, it's quiet and it looks great. It's very light weight compared to my old Cuisinart blender. I'm happy with my purchase.

I knew I wanted a blender, but didn't want to go cheap or too expensive. I wanted one that was good quality and could crush ice (for smoothies). I have had this blender for two weeks and have almost made a smoothie every day. It is so easy to use and has a lot of power!
