I bought three years ago and use it everyday to blend green smoothies. But it started to make a loud noise :( So I contacted Blendtec and they responded with total support. They replaced the blender and mixing containers PRONTO! I am very pleased with the support I got and how the company stands behind their products...A true American company! Thanks Bendtec!
Most powerful yet easiest blender we've ever owned. My wife especially likes the 'Smoothie' button which pulverizes everything in the jar including ice - and, it's totally automatic - changes speed to match the current steps and stops at the ideal time. We've owned several blenders over 53 years of marriage and this is absolutely the finest, bar none!
Made it easier to make meals/desserts/drinks for my family that are more healthy. My husband is a teacher and only has half hour for lunch. I make him a green smoothie with the Blendtec and he has much more energy for the rest of the day. My kids love the spinach ice cream, I have had trouble getting the ice just right in the ice cream. We love all the receipts from the Blendtec website. I wish the Blendtec book came with the blender for more great ideas.
I didn't want to spend this much for a blender but when our Kitchenaid finally died, we wanted one that would last as long, more volume, and was easier to clean. After two months of ownership, Blendtec appears to be exactly what we were looking for.
I bought the blender about a month ago due to changing my diet to paleo. Since the diet is full of home made food I needed a good blender. I have tried many blenders before and was never happy. I kept changing blenders regularly due to the fact that I couldn't make simple dishes. I have burned one on trying to crush nuts. I never thought I could spend money on something like blendtech till I have visited my friend. Everything she tried to make was fast and easy. Today Blendtech is my best friend in the kitchen:) recommend to anyone.
My husband and I had blender envy for a long time and finally purchased this blender a couple months ago. This blender lives up to the hype and then some! I make a smoothie every morning for breakfast now and it always comes out perfect with no chunks. The recipe book included is great too - it gives a lot of cool ideas. I started making my own almond milk, and even my own nutella. You should absolutely invest in this blender. The blender is loud, but it isn't advertised as being quiet. I will trade the noise for the quality any day.
