Awesome blender!
Date of Review: Aug 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: Worth every penny!
This blender is great, by far the best I've ever used. The last blender I had (a cheaper brand) was basically useless. Unless I just wanted to blend liquids, I was basically out of luck. I wanted to start making smoothies (blending ice) and my blender was definitely out of the question.
So I sucked it up and invested in a good blender...and I sure am glad I did. The Breville has no problem blending anything, including ice, the motor is very strong. I also really like the looks of this blender, very sleek! I love the design, its very sturdy, and even easy to clean. The pitcher is very thick glass, and the base is stainless steel. Its also got led lights and a digital display which is pretty cool!
One of the coolest features is the "snow" option, it will literally turn cubes of ice into finely blended snow! Great for making snow cones.
This blender has plenty of different settings, but is still very easy to use. The quality seems to be very good, so I bet it will last a long time. It operates with ease, unlike some blenders that burn out blending anything bulky at all. Overall, I would definitely recommend it, and think it is worth the investment. Those cheaper blenders don't last very long and are such a pain!
