Cuisinart SPB-650P1 1 HP Blender 7 8 x 10 x 13 6 Silver

I use this mostly to blend liquids (shakes, batter for pancakes etc.). For that it's great, and the price I paid is a lot less than I would have expected for Cuisinart ($79). I like the plastic jar, rather than the glass one on a lot of other machines. Of course, some people will find this a turn-off. Actually, the whole unit is made of plastic, but looks like stainless steel from a distance. It's quite powerful (and noisy) and presumably would do a good job blending fruits etc. Be careful cleaning it, though. The first time I did this, I cut a finger on the blades. I bought a brush for cleaning babies' bottles, and that worked well. Read more

I did literally return 5 other blenders and never thought I would find the perfect one, but this is it! Perfect counter size. Effortless to clean after unscrewing the bottom and wash in the sink or dishwasher. I make a smoothie every day and that is what I bought it for. I use the smoothie size fruit packets from Costco that are frozen and it grinds them up quickly. I feel like this is a true work horse! I've bought my last blender! Read more

I bought it about a year ago, but it stopped working because the black part of the blender that moves the blades looks like it melted off and can no longer hold the blades to turn. I didn’t pour hot liquids directly. It just started to deteriorate overtime. Worst product I ever bought from them. Read more

I love the cuisinart product. This is a very nice blender. I been using it for five years now and the quality is very good. It is expensive but it can last more than five years which will worth buying it. Function very smooth and not too noisy. Read more

Works really well and easier to handle, our last one was glass. Easy to put together and pretty powerful. Easy controls too. Read more

Just use this for bar drinks. Compact, which is perfect. Good quality, powerful, easy to use and clean. Replaced an older Cuisinart, which kept tripping our new ARC circuit breakers. No tripping with this new one. Read more

Ordered the white version but got the stainless steel color (it’s plastic). Not returning for correct color since we really need a blender today. One would expect better since I paid full price for the blender. Blender itself is powerful for smoothies, and it is a replacement for the same model whose blade assembly broke. Had repaired that assembly once already, but decided to buy a new one since it was already 3 years old. Still, the old model (SPB-650) outlasted the cheap Ninja we had that broke its suction foot after just a few uses and never could really make the smoothie smooth :) Would give this new version (SPB-650P1) blender a 4 but have to take a point off for getting the wrong color.
