This machine is an amazing “blender”- it makes totally smooth smoothies in one minute and with the correct amount of liquid will blend or cream any other concoction in a matter of minutes. It is loud but that’s the powerful motor and well designed blades at work. The container and top are very sturdy and well designed and extremely easy to clean. It has a sturdy industrial cord and plug and off switch to preserve the motor. I’ve had it for a couple of months now, use it twice daily with liquids, powders, solids, ice and frozen items and it works like a charm! And it’s a US company and I believe it’s made in country. My old Vitamix pales by comparison Blendtec gets 5 stars from me! 👍👍👍👍👍 Read more

I used to manage a Smoothie King. After that, I worked in another juice bar/smoothie business. Those were high school/college jobs, but I still got a ton of experience with smoothie making and use of top tier, commercial blenders. I though Vitamix was the end all be all of blenders. Screw Ninja with all the blades, a Vitamix can pulverize and powderize anything you throw at it with the two small blades at the bottom. Flash forward to my first apartment after college - I had my eyes on a Vitamix but spending $3-400 just to make smoothies made absolutely zero sense financially. I was complaining about the Vitamix price tag to a friend of mine amidst a night of heavy drinking, and he asked me why I didn't just get a Ninja. I told him I thought Ninja's were dumb and gimmicky, and that nothing compares to a Vitamix. He then asked if I'd ever heard of a youtube channel called "Will It Blend?". I told him I hadn't, he quickly pulled it up, and after watching this blender turn an iPad into powder, I knew I'd found what I was looking for. Vitamix power at half the price. You cannot go wrong with this thing. It's absurdly easy to use, absurdly easy to clean, attractive to look at, and seriously just as good as any of the commercial Vitamix's I used at Smoothie King. Don't think twice. This is it. Blendtec > Vitamix. Read more

I am so pleased with both the price point and the quality of this blender. Blendtec surpasses in quality and ease of use. Most of all...the amazing self cleaning feature is sooooo nice! I have enjoyed more healthy juicing choices and soups since I purchased this and believe it or not, I lost weight because I turn to my Blendtec for lovely smoothies. I also find myself with lower cholesterol! I think adding celery and parsley (blended twice) really improved my skin! You won't be disappointed! Give it a whirl! Read more

This blender is definitely much better than the cheap like $30 one I had before. I make a smoothie bowl nearly every money, so it gets a lot of use. It blends fruit, spinach, and ice very well. We've even made soups a few time. That being said, it is a little hard to blend for one person. It takes a little finnessing. I'm going to look into getting a personal blending cup attachment for the future. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Update: the seller reached out and handled my issue promptly and politely! Definitely recommend buying from responsible sellers like this one. Thanks again Pattern. The new Blendtec I bough is defective after 66 smoothies/4 months. I will update this after customer service gets back to me about a refund. It stops after mere seconds and says overloaded and smells burnt! It was just a smoothie and definitely not overloaded (liquid) see the video for proof. The older Blendtecs last FOREVER. I still have my 2011 model and it’s up to 2490 smoothies and still kickin! I only upgraded because the new base looks nicer on my counter and I assumed it would also last forever so I could just use my older one in my RV and the new fancy one in my house. Wrong. I’m asking for a full refund and I’ll use my old Blendtec from now on! I hope it’s a fluke and they all aren’t this poorly made! Stay tuned. Read more
