I have learned my lesson. KitchenAid products from now on. First, I tossed my old mixer for the KitchenAid Classic mixer, and immediately was sorry I had not spent the money years earlier. The difference in performance is astonishing.
I finally gave in and purchased the KitchenAid Pro Line Chef's Blender. Again, remorse over not spending the extra money years ago. Whereas my old blender (some 500 watts) would struggle to crush/chop ice and frozen bananas, etc., the Kitchenaid, with it very, very powerful motor, would do the chore in under a minute, with no hint of struggle. No need to stop the blender and 'push down' with my spatula to get the ingredients to the bottom. The KitchenAid simply gets the job done the first time.
The main reason I made the purchase: to make Frozen Bananan 'ice cream'. This is a dish introduced to me by a Raw Food person (they do not eat regular ice cream). Since I am a diabetic and always dieting, I was intrigued by this healthy...Read more

My wife and I recently started using protein shakes as a breakfast meal replacement. We own a Bullet blender. To commit to our weight loss program, we've taken the Bullet blender from home to work.
For awhile we carried the blender with us, but I decided we just needed a seperate blender. Our cheap $30 blender did not blend the ice very well and made our drinks a bit frothy.
The professional blenders that seem to be used are the Vitamix blenders, but they come with a lofty price tag. I researched some models and found a lot of good reviews on this Kitchenaid.
I love this blender!! I actually find the one piece jar a bonus. We have kids so I use the bottle cleaner on this jar and it works great. It chops ice cubes like nothing and only takes a few seconds to blend our drinks.
The only negative I will say is, when using a chunky peanut butter, it doesn't quite blend down all the chunks. The Bullet blender does this better when using...Read more

Fantastic Blender,

Kitchenaid Pro Line Chef's Blender is the bomb! Powerful motor and vortex action make very short work of ice and frozen fruit-- without residual chunks. I have also added fresh whole fruits-- peeled mangoes and sectioned peeled oranges with excellent results. The thickest, smoothest smoothies in seconds. Clean up is super easy. This blender is a huge step up from my old blender-- it's more like the commercial Vita-mix I used to use when I worked at Starbucks, except those would sometimes leave ice chunks. Excellent product.
