I received this blender as a gift and was SHOCKED to find out how expensive it was. I find that it is pretty limited in what it will blend; the minimum volume for the blender to be effective is quite large, and whatever you are blending needs a high liquid-to-solid ratio. And then there are things that the blade just don't seem to be sharp enough to touch, like cinnamon sticks when trying to make horchata (I gave up). I have emptied countless recipes out of this blender and into my food processor to get the job done. All told, this is a dependable blender for basic smoothies and soups.
We've loved using this blender so far! I love the power and variety of speeds available. I also love having a blade that isn't so sharp, I feel safe washing it and cleaning.
I bought this one first and loved it. Gave it to my daughter as a house warming and bought another one for myself! Loved the cleaning cycle, thought I wanted the presets on the designer, but have to say, does not actually add much. Buy this one, its a "Classic"!
When my Nutribullet died it stopped spinning. I was heartbroken but was watching The Pioneer Woman on The Food Network and she was blending drinks and all I could read from the show was BLENDTEC? So, I did my research on your blenders after that. I knew what would be my next replacement blender would be? I bought this on 10-23-20 and it came on 10-27-20. This does everything that the Nutribullet does but a larger jar is the difference. I can still make my smoothies and use the self-cleaning button which is a great tool to have on your blender. I have made hot soup in my Classic 575, which I love. I like how it is counting each time I use it. When I crave sweets I can look at her and whip up a smoothie just that fast. I really wanted the Orchid Purple but I took whichever showed up first at the house and it was the Black one. I returned the Orchid Blendtec at no charge. This is my healthy option.
I love my Blendtec Blender. It does great with smoothies, soups, and other higher volume recipes. My only issue is when it comes to making lower volume sauces or toppings - if there is less than a cup of liquid, I can't get it to come out smooth because everything goes right under the blades. This is my only frustration with it. I use it a lot for everything else!
I have a classic model and have earned the accolade of best margaritas on the block! I now need to replace the jar, but don't see where to purchase one from you. Please let me know if you would. Thank you!
We needed an excellent blender for my daughter’s jaw surgery. She was on a full liquid diet for 2 weeks! This blender was perfect, blending up all the soups and smoothies to a perfectly smooth liquid. So glad we made the investment with our Blendtec!
I purchased this blender after owning a Blendtec since 2007! It was well worth the price and this was the only brand I would ever consider for the replacement. I’m hoping this one lasts just as long.
