Pros: It grinds like no other blender that I have previously owned. Smoothies stay the same even after hours unlike other-blender-made smoothies that tend to settle down after sometime. It is easy to clean and I love that there is only one blade for all tasks. The pre-programmed cycles are great! I have tried a few recipes that came with the blender and they are yummmm :)
Cons: The jar turned foggy in just one cycle so forget leaving it on the counter. I wrote to customer care and they requested more information, which I provided, but am still waiting to hear back. In the meantime I purchased a second jar, and even that turned foggy within two or three times usage. Due to the powerful motor, it makes unbearable loud noise and it hops and moves on my counter-top (about 5-14 inches) while running the higher pre-programmed cycles. On one occasion, the lid pop-ed off in the middle of the cycle causing hours of cleaning :(

I bought this about a month ago and love it. We have blended just about every day. We love making smoothies. I love how durable it is and also how it blends things really smooth. It's clean up is easy and great. Best investment I believe. I have gone thru 3 other blenders and I'm glad I finally broke down and bought a blendtec. It's amazing.

I bought this over a month ago and I really do like it and all of the great features however it doesn't blend frozen fruit very well for smoothies (it jams up) and it doesn't seem to work as well as shown in the demonstration that I saw at Costco. It is also very loud.

My interest in Blendtec came from an infomercial I was watching while waiting at a tattoo shop. I was particularly impressed with the quality of materials and workmanship. Later, that day I googled Blendtec and saw we get what we pay for...a bit pricey for my wallet. Well, during Amazon's Prime day in July I could not resist saving about 40% off of retail price! I've used the blender every single morning for a wide variety of different smoothies and on a couple of occasions for some frozen ritas. They have all turned out smooth - absolutely no solids or chunks at all. This is in contrast to a Vitamix I bought for my Ex a couple of years ago. Vitamix gets killer reviews - but the bottom line is: the Vitamix frequently leaves behind a lot of pulp and other unblended chunky material. I highly recommend the Blendtec to any - or all - blending enthusiasts! You will not be disappointed.
Plus the blender's 'auto' buttons/ functions take all the guesswork out of blending. And even with it's powerful motor does not vibrate and is NOT so loud it wakes the neighbors-lol! In addition, it fits nicely under the kitchen cabinets = small footprint for an 'industrial strength' blender

This blender has far exceeded my expectations and I've barely tapped the surface of it's capabilities.

My husband makes smoothie every morning and he is very happy to use our recently bought BlendtecTotal with Wildside. It's simple in design, but superb in blending fruits and vegetables. I made soy milk in the blender as well as smoothies. I like the simplicity , functionality and the price, which is much lower than Vitamix blender. Thanks to Costco, where I bought the blender.

It performs extremely well. My only disappointment is a better guide to what speeds to use for what purposes. I am experimenting, but there are so many possibilities for length of time and speed, it would be nice for a technical guide for speed and time to accomplish certain tasks. Yes it depends what you are blending, so use a examples (ice, carrot, apple, ripe fruit etc.) that provide something of a standard. It certainly makes great nut milks easily, a vast improvement over buying such products.
