Since 2007 i've been on a hunt for anything American made. Glad i made the choice to spend my money on this. The preprogramed cycles actually do the job! Cleaning is a snap... no knobs to work around.
Bought this Blendtec a few months ago, cause my wife wanted an all purpose blender/juicer (we've had other juicers... waaay too much time in prep and clean up) - this unit really lived up to expectations and then some - from juices, to smoothies, to ice cream and more - most importantly, 15 secs to clean up - we're beyond pleased :))))
I use it everyday - right now to make smoothies - but it is the perfect start to my day...both the smoothie and Blendtec. I love the features - not sure why I waited so long to purchase this... It's the best! #lovemyblendtec
I have had this blender for three months and love it. It is intelligently designed and ultra-simple to use. I make a green smoothie daily. It's a matter of tossing the ingredients in and pressing one button. Super easy to clean, too.
Went in half with my girlfriend on this and then after a few weeks If i could do it again i would just buy it myself because I'm afraid she will try to take it if we break up.
Seriously, if you are looking for a blender just spend the $500 and don't look back. It will pay for itself when you realize that you will be making professional quality smoothies and much more at home. We buy bags of frozen fruit and probably make 2 smoothies a day as well as use it as a food processor because it can turn everything into dust!
I heartily endorse my Blendtec blender! I purchased it seven months ago and have been 100% pleased with it ever since. It works like a charm, cleans up beautifully, and I never worry about blades. I am a "farm to fork" kind of cook and expect all my kitchen tools to work as advertised. The Blendtec blender goes above and beyond for me. What a great superblender!
