I've had my blender for a few months now. I mainly make smoothies with it but trying to venture out with all the amazing recipes the book has. I also bought the small twister jar and it's helpful for smaller portions and nut butters. Only downside really is how loud it is. Tough to make a smoothie in the morning and not wake up anyone.

The bearings went out on my daily used Four-Sided jar. I called the company and a new one was on its way to me right away. This company stands behind its products....there is no comparison!

I chastised my husband for buying such an expensive blender, but we use it practically everyday and have gotten our money's worth. We make protein shakes, soups, baby food, as a chopper for nits...really so many uses for it.

I was given this blender as a gift this past Christmas. I've been doing my research for some time and decided that Blendtec was the brand for me. Before this I'd had a vintage Oster blender that worked surprisingly well for it's age and how often I used it.
I've been using my Blendtec blender for daily green smoothies, and they're the smoothest they've ever been. I also used it to make avocado margaritas, and was astounded when the ice crushed down to a fine snow-like consistency. I used the smaller jar for making some cashew cream with turned out fantastic! This blender really performs. The only cons are that it is startlingly loud - my cat who is usually unphased by other kitchen appliances flees the room every morning. The "Smoothie" mode button just keeps ramping up the speed until the 12 ounce smoothie is all over the jar walls and lid base, so I feel like I'm making a bigger mess than necessary. I'm also used to the locking base on many blenders, which I was surprised this one did not have.
Overall I'm really happy with this blender - it's super versatile and I can tell it will last for years to come!

Bought this from costco.com, with the Wildside and Twister jars; it showed up Christmas Eve 2015. My doctor had told me I needed to bring my blood pressure down, so I looked into what people do to achieve that. Healthy food. And exercise.
I figured I could take on ONE of those things without breaking a sweat, and, after reading about the joys of smoothies, I headed to Walmart to buy a blender (cuz, a blender is pretty much a blender, right? Er, nope.) I bought a martial-arts-themed brand, because it was more expensive than the $20-40 cheapies, and only the best for MY mother's son, amirite?
It wasn't long before I started reading more about this stuff, and realized the limitations in my blender. I read countless reviews and watched countless videos of countless blenders, and, like most people who get into this stuff, my search was narrowed down to 2 brands (YOU know who you are, other brand!)
I really couldn't decide based on the reviews, but the 8 year warranty, the dull-bladed blunt-force-trauma approach, and Costco's $350 price tag put me over the top on Blendtec. Roughly 100 blends later (after 45 days of ownership), and you'll find zero buyer's remorse from me!
I feel SO much better having switched to the easy-to-prepare fresh-fruits-and-veggies diet this appliance has afforded me (from a diet consisting mainly of a large pizza lasting me a couple of days, prior to this), and the NUT BUTTER!! Oh, man. The nut butter. Just put your favorite nuts in the Twister jar, rotate the top counter-clockwise when butterizating, and in about a minute, you get the best nut butter you've ever had the pleasure of eating.
I could go on and on (just ask my friends and relatives!), but suffice to say, this is probably the best $350 I've spent on anything food related, not being a gifted cook or anything (just ask my friends and relatives!).
Do yourself a favor, and just buy one already.
