A New Blender

[yogitunes]

this link is of a blender that I seen on TimeWarp.......andit really looks like it could handle just about any blending chore with ease.....

Does anyone know anything about this?..........good or bad

depending on price something I might consider.....

Yes-Blendtec blenders are EXCELLENT-along with Vita Mix-I have both.They are worth it.If you use a blender as your primary kitchen tool-this is the way to go.

I really like this show, mainly of watching things in slo-mo as to see what the eye misses....

but more testing of things like these appliances should be done in this way, to see just how powerful and sturdy/dependable they really are....

Makes you want to run into Sears and drop a cell phone in a blender to see how well it can perform or self-destructs before you buy it......

I wonder what other "test" we could run on some appliances.......things like this would convince me to buy a product more than ConsumerReports claiming that a blender can mix kool-aid and water with ease.....

but even as good as this machine is, CR would have to find some stupid fault with it.......

take the GinZu knife collection...not that I would use them in this way, but its nice to know I could chop wood, slice thru a soda can, file off a nail, before I cut my veggies for a salad.....all in a days work!.....lol

At one time CU rated Blendtec and VM highly-but commented the Blendtec was noisey and both had a high price.Well to get a good blender or other good appliance--you gotta pay the price.Sometimes this escapes CU.They will rate a cheap machine instead.And the cheap one will not chop up cell phones and such-the coupler in the cheap blender will break or its motor will be blown.Blendtec uses all metal couplers-so they will blend frozen ingredients without worry or that bad cellphone.
