Advantages: easy to use
Disadvantages: n/a

Some may not like this type of blender but I do. I think it does a very good job blending up things. It is very easy to use and you can blend up so many things with this. It has a couple different kinds of functions.It cost an ok price. Not too expensive or even to cheap at all. But my wife uses it to make the kids milkshakes all the time. It leaves some of the icecream in chunks but it does a very good job in blending it up. It does not take too ... Read review

Disadvantages: none

I have bought this West Bend 6550 blender for my family last month to replace my old one which was Oster. I purchased this blender mainly to make smoothies. My mother can not chew solid food as her has some major dental problems. I use my blender at least once a day. So for, I have used it for several jobs and I just love it. I use frozen fruit to make my smoothies and this blender makes easy work of mixing the ingredients quickly to make a cafe-style ...
...easy cleanup. The plastic jar makes it lighter and not so worried about breakage. The motor is quiet, yet powerful enough to handle my most demanding smoothie tasks. The cord storage on the bottom is also a great feature. Especially it has a satisfactory price. Overall this blender seems to be well made and pretty well thought out. ... Read review

Advantages: Initially, it worked ok.
Disadvantages: Poor construction, bad customer service, defective cooling system.

...a blender. This blender by KitchenAid seemed to be just what I was looking for. I bought the KSB560PK for just over 100 dollars. As always with newegg.com, it arrived seemingly instantly at my doorstep. I anxiously plugged it in and made various cocktails of fruits and vegetables. I was initially impressed with the power of the unit. It handled the carrots and cucumbers with ease. After using it experimentally, I started to get down to business. ...
...by the manufacturer, I contacted kitchenAid by phone. Needless to say, they had absolutely horrible customer service. The lady that I talked to was not only useless, she was rude as well!! I was informed that I needed to send the unit in for repairs or replacement, under the one year manufacturer warranty. I found this out after being asked about 30 questions about how I used the product. I sent the blender in and I am awaiting the new one. Overall, ... Read review

Advantages: Durable, powerful, Affordable
Disadvantages: Hhmm... 2.5 feet cord? (seems standard for blenders)

...my mind - Powerful! The Sunbeam 6629 10 speed is a product that has all the characteristics I look for in a blender - durably built, solid pitcher, powerful motor and a very affordable price. We have been using this atleast 4X a month for the last 3 years and still hasn't failed us yet. This blender has 5 settings to choose from; 1.Grate - To stir 2.Blend - To puree 3. Grind - To Chop 4. Liquify - To Whip 5. Ice crush - well of course, to crush ...
...Low option for each setting. Why I say this product is powerful? Honestly, for everything that I have done with this blender I have always just used one setting - Blend at low setting! Even crushing ice! It's just my laziness that I have done that but why should I bother? It always gets the job done. When I make my fruit shakes I always use cubed ice and not crushed and still this machine doesn't mind at all. In 15-20 seconds all those hard ice ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to operate and clean.Very efficient.
Disadvantages: No retractable cord. But that's not really a disadvantage.

...for a smoothie maker. This Oster 14 speed blender is a dream compared. I was lucky and found it marked down at a local Wal-Mart and paid $34.99 for this blender. So far, I am positive I am going to get my money's worth. It came unassembled including the following: One 5 cup Dishwasher-Safe glass Jar One leak-proof lid One feeder cap which also doubles as a 2 oz. measuring cup The base with motor Sealing ring Ice Crush Blade Jar bottom One ...
...the price was outstanding. I believe in the Oster name. I'm looking forward to experimenting with sauces and gravies. I would recommend this blender to anyone who wants a good, affordable, reliable blender. I like to research appliances I buy. Here's a handy website I used: www.oster.com ... Read review
