THis is my second krups blender , they are big and powerful but quiet. I like them but they are a little on the expensive side.
This is the best blender I have ever purchased. The chop ice option is great. It is easy to use and easy to clean up after use.
Easy to clean. It can't handle the task if the ingredients are not thinned out first by adding lots of water. This should have been the best blender on the market. Acceptable price. If you do buy one of these, be sure to put clear plastic tape (the wide kind you use for packages) over the buttons to keep liquids and powders from getting inside them. Glass jug. It lacks power, no matter how many watts it's supposed to be.
(That's happened twice). Quiet, yet powerful. The motor burns out. Stable base on jug so it won't tip over. One problem. So keep your receipt (although the warranty is only one year). You just push the buttons through the tape.
It did smell, but so did my new toaster, its just a new appliance smell. I received it for my bridal shower. It DID blend the margheritas, but it left chunks of watermelon in the center. Broke it out for the july 4th weekend to make frozen watermelon margheritas. yum (frozen watermelon cubes, contreau, lime juice, tequila- much more healthy than the shakes described in the other reviews;. Not the worst experience, but this thing is like a tank compared to my hamilton beach blender that did the job (loud) but got it done. i wouldnt run out to buy it, but its not the worst.
Bizarre, since the bottom twists & locks into place. It liquefies everythng I put in there easily & quickly.When it was brand new, yes, it gave off a burning rubber kind of smell. I've had this blender over a year now, but have not used it excessively.I've started using it again recently to make raw green smoothies & other raw smoothies. You have to push it down & twist it & you will hear it click & lock onto the jar. So much nicer than plastic.At any rate, its a nice blender as far as I'm concerned. I guess if you don't attach it properly in the first place, then it's your own fault that the bottom falls out. Some of my latest creations have included watermelon, bananas, strawberries, baby carrots (whole), spinach, kale, watercress, blueberries, cherries, mangoes, pineapple, raw almonds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, raw oatmeal, and everything else you can imagine.
It's just how things are. It works perfectly for me.I'm not sure why some people are having trouble with the bottom falling off. But that's typical of most new appliances such as this. Seriously, there's no way for the bottom to come off unless you do not attach it properly. Anyway.It blends everything perfectly for me. It goes away after a few uses.The glass jar is awesome - very heavy duty. It does what I need it to do, cleans super easy, and doesn't take up huge amounts of counter space.
