Hamilton Beach Smoothie Blender, 48 oz BPA-Free Jar 650 W 12-Function Countertop Blender for Kitchen, Black

Well, it's Hamilton Beach so you know it's going to be good. The pitcher is not glass, but it's durable and lightweight. It's a simple blender, not expensive, but perfect for me for when I need a good powerful little blender, unlike my small magic bullet, which doesn't blend that well at all. For the price AND the fact that it's Hamilton Beach makes this a good buy 👍🏻

after spending weeks trying to order a blender i went with this one...mainly because i liked the colors...but it turned out to be one of the best blenders ive owned. cup is perfect size and not too loud ...very light but feels like a sturdy machine. i def recommend

This was exactly the one for me, I'd say cheap price but I don't want you to get the idea, it was an amazing price but the word cheap isn't something I'd associate with it, it's not cheap looking or anything it's such a great addition to my kitchen and it wors as well as any expensive one out there, Thank you for making such a great deal for me it's Perfect period.

Good blender great price! I have used it a couple times. I love making smoothies with frozen fruits and the blender handles it pretty well. Sometimes I had to take the pitcher off the base and shake it up a bit other than that it's does its job. This is my second one the first one lasted about 2 years but my kiddo put a spoon in it while it was on and busted the pitcher I think it would have lasted longer so I have high hopes for this one to last 2 years.

I use this only for smoothies and it grinds ice really well. It does not work well for salsa. You must have at least a half cup of water at the bottom or it won't blend at all. Adding water makes the salsa watery and because the blades pulverize it turns the salsa pink.

If you're only using this for minor task, it's not terrible I soaked lentils overnight to make lentil bread, not only is it a bit small, but it won't fully break up the soaked red lentils It works for smoothies as long as you don't mind chunks of fruit or ice as it won't break it down smooth Other than that, it is exactly what you pay for

this blender is nice. We have only tried it for smoothies twice but seems good overall. But for the life of me, I cannot figure out why the lid falls off when pouring. We like to use the strainer option on the lid in case any large chu ks were missed while blending. Both times we used it the lid fell off while pouring the smoothies. It made huge messes and lost half of the drinks. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, time for a different blender 🫩.

If I just wanted to mix liquids, it might be okay. But I tried to make a smoothie with frozen fruits and it didn't chop them up and move them around. I added milk thinking it needed fluid, but it still didn't make the fruit move around or cut it up. I guess I need a food processor. Later I put in 4 ice cubes to see if it crushed the ice. It crushed it some, but left big chunks. Disappointing! I'm returning.

would love to rate this higher, had high hopes for this because of the different settings. But I feel like it is false advertising because it says can make smoothie, icee, milkshakes etc. This is my 4th time using it and it started smelling as if it was burning as the blades struggled to cut through the frozen ice for the frozen fruit smoothie...disappointed!

It's disappointing when you think that you're unpacking a "new" appliance and find that it does not have the appearance of a brand new product. I received the blender with scuff marks and some minor nicks and scratches. It was not packed with types of protection that you normally expect for a new appliance. Just 2 bags. It's disheartening when you find that you are not the first person to receive the device that you had been so excited about.
