Avoid - bulky, heavy and lid doesn’t fit - which they’re aware of but keep selling the product?! Regret buying this for so many reasons but the lid does not fit when I rang there said they are aware of the issues but would not refund me because it’s used but it was not used because the lid doesn’t fit!!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have been using this for about a month. So far, it’s been easy to use. I love the bright red color and the sleek design. It is a little heavier than expected. Love that there’s the glass or plastic jar options. I use the glass jar to blend hot liquids and the plastic for all others. I’ve been pleasantly surprised with how easy it’s been to wash, especially when you use the Clean option. It doesn’t completely clean the blender but it makes the final cleaning so much easier. Overall, I’m very pleased with the purchase. It was worth the splurge.
There is a defect that affects the cleaning of the product, fluid is getting under the ring at the bottom and it cannot be disassembled and cleaned. I cleaned it after every use and after a week or two it started to develop an odor. You can see underneath the glass there is a white moldy substance. If you smell the interior or the jar it is awful. Maybe this is a one off product error but for how much this cost the design is flawed just in general. To be unable to clean something like this appropriately is a silly oversight.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KitchenAid Pure Power blender is great. It has plenty of power and cane be used for so many purposes. The speed control feature allows you to select the texture you want from chunky salsa to creamy smoothies.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender is so useful and feels very well built. I’ve been wanting to find more glass products for my kitchen and this is perfect. Has a cleaning, smoothie and ice crushing mode. I tried all 3 and will say that they each work very well. For cleaning, I followed the instructions and was worried it wouldn’t clean well but it looks and feels as if i scrubbed it with a sponge and the soapy water even got up to the lid. I made a very simple smoothie with frozen fruit. Some other blenders I tried would struggle with frozen fruit but this blender blended everything smooth within seconds. I barely tasted any chunks and it was so quick and easy. I tried the ice crushing mode as well, it was also very convenient and fast. The ice crushed into even pieces and makes me want to try making shaved ice at home. There are two different lids, one for the glass jar and one for the plastic. I appreciate that they are labeled under the lid for which is which. The lids also come with either 2 or 3 layers for suction as opposed to one for other blenders. Feels very secure on the blender! The parts and components have a good weight to them and feel like the quality is there. The one thing I did notice is that this blender doesn’t come with a stirring stick to push down ingredients, but I haven’t needed to do that for this blender. This blender also wasn’t super loud and the sound was smooth. Pieces fit perfectly together and did not feel like there was any unwanted friction. Very easy and simple to assemble. I would definitely recommend this product and appreciate the glass jar feature!
