CONS

KitchenAid KHBC310OB Commercial Blender

Yes

• You may need to add more liquid • It’s rather loud • The cup is not insulated • The blade assembly is not dishwasher safe • Best used with earplugs. • It leaks easily and requires rinsing everything before the next load, or else it could get messy. • The pitcher doesn't have a handle. • Runs hot, therefore smoothies can come out warm. • The plastic cups stain and hold smells just like any plastic food container. • No timer so you have to watch the clock to make sure you're not over-blending. • Quality/robustness of accessories not totally consistent • Some of the recipes in the books call for amounts/proportions of ingredients that are hard to totally fit in the containers. • If you do not put it on really really tight, the screw-on blade part can easily come unscrewed from the container mid blend, making a huge mess.

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.
