Great blender. BLACK+DECKER BL1400DG-P Quiet
BLACK+DECKER BL1400DG-P Quiet Stainless Steel Blender with Cyclone Glass CupThis is a wonderful blender! I have used an $800 Blendtec quiet blender but it only lasted 3 years. I have used a Breville powerful blender but it was very noisy and also stopped working way too soon. I needed one immediately so bought this B&D for the interim. But when I started using it I decided that this will do and there was no need to buy a much more expensive blender, especially given that the expensive ones stopped working in such a short amount of time. I use this one to make smoothies that include hard items like raw carrots (which I cut into slices) and ice cubes. When I use the smoothie setting this B&D does not blend it into a smooth drink. Instead the food still is in non-smoothie chunks that are unpleasant. However, after I use the smoothie button, that stops automatically, I wait 10 seconds and then start the blender again using the button labeled 3, which does not stop automatically. After this second blending for just a minute or two, it is a perfect smoothie for me. The instructions that came with the blender seem to suggest that this longer period of blending is not good for the blender. However, I figure that the lower price of this B&D blender makes it more economical even if it burns out from long use times. I have only had it for a month or so, thus I cannot speak to how long it will last with heavy daily use. I love that it has a glass cup. The cover is a disappointment since it is a hard plastic with no rubber to hold it into place. However, the top fits well and does not leak, if you have the two doors closed tight. I find it to be about average in noise level for blenders. But like any blender or noisy kitchen appliance, I wear noise cancelling headphones when in use.Ver másVer menos
