CONCLUSION

PROS

Braun JB9040BK TriForce Power Blender
Vitamix E320 Explorian Blender
Yes

• The build quality is what you'd expect from Braun. The blade (on the full sized Pitcher) is German-made and it chops ice, nuts and vegetables like nothing. • The safety features on both the Pitcher and on the Smoothie2Go are outstanding, the accessories (Tamper and Smoothie2Go Bottle and Coupling Adapter) feel solid overall. • It self-cleans, it even has a program for that, put a couple of drops of soap, water to 1/4, press clean, then rinse and it's clean, works 100% of the time! • Braun offers a 5-Year warranty on this and it's good knowing they'll be in business to honor that warranty if something happens to your appliance, compared to the 5 Years given by the "Bargain Brands" which probably won't be around by then. • Powerful. Easily blended smoothies to a perfect consistency as well as very nicely mixed butter into a pie crust. • Digital controls. A number of automatic settings (smoothie, worked perfectly) along with your standard mix of manual and pulse. • Design. A mix of industrial and modern with the size shape and digital controls. Not a show piece per se but it handsome for what it is and definitely looks more impressive with the power on and controls lit up. • Mix effectiveness. The tri-lob design of the jug along with the blades design did a good job of ensuring even mixing. • 1600W of power. Nice and powerful when compared to the 800W to 1200W of your standard blender. • Metal spline coupling between motor and blades. As opposed to the hard rubber of cheaper designs. • Includes blender bottle with dedicated blade, and push-down tool. • Power cord stores in base. Sort of. It can be a bit of a hassle jamming it into the space but it’s there.

Yes

• It features a classic and modern design which upgrades your kitchen. • It is slightly more affordable than other model from Vitamix. • It features a powerful and robust motor perfect for making hot soups. • Easy to use controls with 10 various speed and pulse features. • It is very easy to clean. • There is also a leak free lid. • It can be used to make large batches with its 64 ounce container. • It comes with 7 plus extra accessories which include motor base, Low-Profile 64 Oz BPA-Free container, Cookbook and Owner’s Manual. • It is made with durable stainless steel blades. • dishwasher safe parts • BPA free container • An additional 7 year warranty is a must. • The base of this blender is compatible with most of Vitamix products including the Legacy series blenders. • It delivers a solid base, featuring a curved bevel on both sides, making the blender good at withstanding excess pressure while blending. • A multifunctional blending machine with chopping, puréeing, grinding, blending, heating, and emulsifying capabilities.

CONS

Braun JB9040BK TriForce Power Blender
Vitamix E320 Explorian Blender
Yes

• The lid and the way it clips on to the jug with large plastic clips on 2 sides is kind of junky. Not a huge deal but does feel cheap when compared to the rest of the blender. • Tritan plastic jug instead of glass. A 2L glass jug would be pretty heavy and the plastic jug is durable and BPA free so this could go either way in my opinion.

Yes

• This is uncommon, but food bits can get in between the switches • Louder than most Vitamix blenders • If you get the personal cup attachment, there’s an extra adapter you’d need (a cup within a cup). It may use up more space than necessary.
