Blend All You Want... And Everything!
Review of Sunbeam 6629 10 Speed by
Lejandro
Advantages: Durable, powerful, Affordable
Disadvantages: Hhmm... 2.5 feet cord? (seems standard for blenders)
...the summers' scorching heat! The Sunbeam 6629 10 speed is a product that will decieve you with its conservative and conventional look and price. Performance wise, it is somethin' you'd be happy for a long time. We have been using this more than 2 years and still hasn't given us any problem at all.
You can choose from high and Low option for each 5 setting that this blender comes with. It can basically do almost everything that you throw in it. Cubed ... ...just 10-15 seconds of spin you will see nothing solid after.
This blender also comes with a durable plastic pitcher. When I bought this I had my apprehension because of the pitcher but I was proven wrong. All this time it is blemish free. It is also light which is good when you want to use it as a pitcher straight-up. The blender motor is also surprisingly lightwieght too compared to others.
I can't believe this product was cheap @ $40.00. Sometimes ...

Horrible blender
Review of Hamilton Beach 50644 by
rprmsr
Advantages: none
Disadvantages: it doesn't blend
...This is a blender I would be imbarrased to recommend to anyone. It's a waste of money no matter the cost, because it just doesn't come close to completing the job. I am very dissappointed and hope that Hamilton Beach puts better quality into their other products. ...

Good concept, poorly executed
Review of Magic Bullet 7712.00 by
rprmsr
Advantages: Ease of use for small jobs, compact
Disadvantages: not big enough for larger blending jobs, too expensive for quality
This is a great option for those with small spaces and who need a blender for small jobs and less frequently. It's kind of a hassle to blend large quantities, because you have to blend things up in smaller portions and it takes awhile and can get kind of messy. The commercials are misleading as they show someone using it for several different jobs in one meal. You can't really do that, because you only have one blending blade and one grinding blade. ... ...the motor in the dishwasher. Several of the parts never get used. I would recommend buying the set that includes the blender attachment to do the bigger jobs. I don't think this is worth the $50-60 I paid for it, I'd rather get a food processor. But, it's ease of use can be rather handy. ...

Worth it!
Review of Cuisinart CSB-77 by
pamelaannesee
Advantages: One 'engine' operates all three appliances and is easy to store.
Disadvantages: The measuring cup is not generally big enough to blend or whisk things in.
I was given this as a housewarming gift and it has not yet disappointed me. The measuring cup is a bit shallow for the grand-scale of smoothies and various other foods I like to blend but it serves very well as a measuring cup anyway. The hand-held blender is perfect for blending in bowls or in pots when making soups. The chopper works great as both a chopper and a blender. It quickly chops things like onions which is faster than chopping it with ... ...it can end up blending the food too. There are no speed options on this product but the speed provided is perfect. The hand-held blender blades are a bit difficult to clean but, if soaked in water for a few minutes, the food residue comes off easily. The whisk splatters a bit but it whips cream quickly and easily. ...

Affordable Quality
Review of Hamilton Beach 52284WV 12 Speed by
jollyholly
Advantages: price, simplicity, speed
Disadvantages: none
This Hamilton Beach Wave Action blender has been the best blender I have ever owned. True to its advertising, the 'wave action' makes it less necessary to stop and scrape down the edges while blending which makes the whole process a lot faster. It is easy to disassemble and reassemble, all of its parts are conveniently dishwasher safe, and it is easily stored; yet does heavy duty work. I have even been able to use it to crush ice well enough to make ...
