[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with this blender! It's easy to use and so easy to clean that I never dread when I need to use it. The light up buttons are so attractive and the preprogrammed blender settings cuts out the guess work and worry of blending. They make it so easy to just adjust the dial for what you want to blend up and breaks it down into texture too. There is a timer that counts down its blending and I can even hear it go through different blending speeds and powers along the way to make the textures just right. I love that I can make absolutely anything in it from soups and purees to chunky salsas and smooth or crunchy nut butters. I have even made mashed potatoes in this blender and carrot cake muffins! It truly is an amazing blender that lives up to its quality. I have vowed to never buy store bought nut butters again because it runs so smoothly. I love the triangular shape too. I noticed that it helps prevent foods from getting caught between the blade and the bowl which prevents it from just getting spun around and around rather than blending. There is even a self clean setting on the blender that actually works! I would totally recommend this blender to anyone! From beginners in the kitchen to expert cookers. This is a kitchen tool that you really should not live without!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently began using this Braun TriForce Power Blender. I have been incredibly impressed by the number of customization options, especially the texture, which makes it so easy to get soups, smoothies, or even spice blends just right. I love that there is a heating option for soups and sauces! This blender is more powerful and not as loud as my previous blender. It is very easy to clean and store.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender has been my favorite blender to date. It's functionality has been unmatched by other ones I've used, and I'm rapidly seeing less reason to have a food processor around here. It has a sleek appearance and holds a large amount of liquid so we aren't doing things in 2 batches these days. Having the customizable features has been great for things like today where It was used to mix together a coffee protein drink for one family member, a greens smoothie for another, and a muffin mix for the whole crew! I didn't even have to dirty a bowl for that last one, and my baking rhythm may be permanently changed from now on. This blender is the first one I've owned to have a clean setting and it is used nearly everyday. It does well to get all of the crevices of the liquid container, and typically does well with the lid too, although I rinse the ladder a little extra just in case. I think overall though my favorite part about this all is how smooth my greens smoothies have become. I had upgraded from an immersion blender, to a normal blender, to the Triforce and it is seriously so smooth on the smooth setting. I can put it into nearly any of my kids' straw cups and they can drink it with ease. 10/10 would recommend. The only thing I would note is that it is powerful, so if you have an old GFCI, it may trip it! We had to originally blend in our dining room for a few days before replacing the GFI and then it's had a permanent home on our counter ever since.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender is absolutely AMAZING!! It’s by far the easiest piece of kitchen technology to use!! I love all the different modes which has speeds to each and then manual setting if you want to do it yourself. I love that the timer is digital and you have the option to pause if you want. The cleaning setting is by far the best idea ever! I so love and recommend this blender!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am pretty happy with this blender.
I like how each program had 3 different settings - from smooth to chunky. I also appreciate the clean program. This is a feature that I’ve never seen before and made the clean up process so much easier.
My biggest dislike isn’t even a real dislike. The clean setting worked great for my liquid mixtures, but didn’t clean as well after the nut butter (I made a thick hummus). I did the wrong clean cycle twice and it mostly got everything but it couldn’t reach the cover or underneath the blade. However it made it super easy for me to quickly clean by hand, so overall the setting definitely saves me a lot of time (picture attached).
One other thought: this item is big. Like really big for a blender. That’s not a bad thing, just takes getting used to. Personally, I’ve never really needed a blender of this size, but now that I have it I’ll be looking for ways to take advantage of its capacity!
The blender worked very well for my more liquid mixtures, but for my super thick mixtures, I felt it didn’t do as good a job - needed to add more water to make it more liquid to get it to mix and had a hard time using the stick to push the nuts back down towards the blade. To be fair, I tested it out with a REALLY THICK nut butter, but for most everyday uses the blender worked perfectly.
While I loved the blender, the price is very steep, and I think it lends itself to more of a commercial setting or a professional chef .
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LOVE this blender. We have another high-end blender from a different brand, but because of its bulk, I tended not to use it. The TriForce, on the other hand, is a bit wider and shorter, so it can fit the same volume, but you can tuck it underneath your upper kitchen cabinets, which is helpful. I also like the preset programs. It makes it very easy - and therefore, fun - to use. I used it more in the first week of getting it than I've used our other blender in the past 3 years. Finally, it's easy to clean.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender has become our most used kitchen appliances. Powerful, strong and precise for no matter what you are blending. From tough veggies to ice, everything is blended. But also fast! All the programs and texture settings make anything you make a breeze. Like Chunkier salsa, it's a breeze. Want smoother sauces, just as easy. The biggest surprise was the ability to blend and heat at the same time, making soups a breeze . Everyone is shocked when I tell them about it but wants it! Great size for an individual or a family. Easy to clean with a lot of the items easy to place in the top rack of the dishwasher. but since we use it so often, it rarely makes it to the dishwasher!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this blender and we are REALLY enjoying this blender.
Pros: - the pre-set food program allow you to "set it and forget it". So I would add all my items for a smoothie and just click smoothie and smooth and continue doing things in the kitchen and I did not have to watch it - self clean - LOVE this features. Very annoying to wash a blender every time you use it so this feature was fantastic and did the job of cleaning it. - this blender is a BEAST. I really feel like it can blend ANYTHING. We have had success blending EVERYTHING we have tried in it (this is probably why it is so loud) - the three settings "smooth, medium, coarse" really help customize to the right texture you are going for (especially handy for soup if you don't want it FULLY smooth). I really really like this feature
Cons: - it is VERY loud. Very is an understatement. Like as loud as you can imagine a blende to be, this is it - I did not always find that the "pre-set" textures worked out and I would often just click "smooth" or "medium" and do it for as long as I needed it. - the "frozen dessert" pre-set program left my frozen blueberries/bananas with a weird gummy/gelatin like consistency that we were not fond of so we did not use that feature again.. not sure what that was about
