CONS

KitchenAid KSB4031CU K400
Blendtec Total Classic Original Blender
Yes

• It makes having a conversation a challenge because it is considered to be extremely loud. • It does not have rubber feet under the base so it keeps moving around during the blending process. • The entire unit is very large. The base alone is heavy and stands fairly high. • The blades cannot be removed...at least not very easily.

Yes

• It is abit noisy but many of these high-powered blenders are. • The manual is not particularly accurate but it easy to operate the machine itself. • A few left in stock so be quick to purchase. • Only 2 buttons for adjusting speed; you won’t know if you’re at #5 or #10. • The jar is highly durable but not ideal for thick blends • Outdated design.
