BlendtecTotal Classic Original Blender, 90 oz WildSide+ Jar, 24 oz Twister Jar, and Spectacula Spatula - Red

I purchased the blender from TYCS and experienced no issues in the delivery, but was very surprised to receive a package from Sam’s Club with my name on the receipt as if I’d made the purchase at the store. TYCS is not affiliated with Sam’s. Well, I guess I had one issue with the delivery… the date kept moving. Fortunately, it arrived on the earliest date given.The Blendtec is AMAZING! We’ve made several smoothies, nut butters and batches of hummus with no issues. The recipes in the book are delicious, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised as to the numerous web sites offering smoothie recipes. The blender pulverizes fruits and veggies into a frothy, rich smoothie in a matter of seconds. A little experimentation with the amount of added water will help determine if you prefer a more or less foamy smoothie. Nothing has become caught in the blades so far. Cleaning is a breeze, which is accomplished by adding water and soap and pulsing for 10 seconds. Additional cleaning to the jar is easy with the large jar and the dull blades.This appliance is perfect for those people wanting a great multipurpose device to help them make fresh dishes especially smoothies. Who knew that red cabbage or broccoli could be so delicious in a smoothie?!The only drawback is it IS LOUD. Quite LOUD. I expect that from a high powered appliance and from reading the reviews. You will wake people in your house if you use this during the wee hours of the morning. Fortunately, it works efficiently and quickly, so it’s only loud for a matter of seconds. Another drawback is the black feet do mark up my grey counters a bit. This was remedied by putting a matt under it and holding it while it runs. Again, it doesn't run that long, so not a big deal.We did a lot of research between Blendtec and Vitamix. The dull blades and larger jar won us over. We’re very happy with our purchase!

My wife and I are vegan, so we use our blender all the time. We’ve always had this certain blender for years, always upgraded to a newer model. [we won’t mention any brands] but they were always noisy and hard to get the contents out of the containers because of it’s weird shape. Even their small container was difficult. We had a Blendtec years ago, but thought we’d go with the other brand because everyone was using it. Well needless to say we finally tired of it when we saw this one on Amazon. It had great reviews, so we bought this one. It’s everything the specs says it is, awesome. It comes with a large container and a smaller one. My wife loves to try new vegan recipes, so the blender is always her go to gadget. She uses the smaller container mostly because it’s just us two she cooks for. We make our own nut and oat milk and this Blendtec blends them with ease. And the most important thing I like is that its much quieter than the previous blender. The shape of the containers makes it easy to get ALL the contents out, unlike the other brand I won’t mention. My wife makes me vegan ice cream everyday [I love ice cream] and this blender makes it better than any store bought crap. And we get every drop of that great ice-cream out of the container. Unlike the other brands container. This Blendtec is the perfect home use blender on the market, we’re in our sixties so we know what we like. It’ll make any sauces, dressings, gravies with ease. She even makes her own flour out of her grains she likes to use. I have yet to hear her complain about this blender yet. She loves this blender, and that says allot. I don’t think there was a day we didn’t complain about the other brand. This one will be with us for a very long time. Super powerful and super quiet. Now like I always say, read the specs before buying. This may or may not be what your looking for, but for us who uses this everyday, doing everyday recipes, this Blendtec works fantastic. We highly recommend it to be part of your kitchen.

I especially like the twister jar for making individual shakes. We have had a Blendtec before but the jar started to leak. I hope they have fixed that in the newer models. I hear there is a Teflon ring instead of rubber now.

I have owned the 5200 Vitamix for eight years. It works just fine, but I often times passed on using it, because I didn't feel like dragging it out (and it was too big and unsightly to leave out on the counter). When my son moved out, I let him take it with him, since he frequently used it for smoothies. After a few months, I started wishing I had a high power blender again. I thought about a Ninja, but my son advised me that friends who had these were disappointed. We both thought there was nothing out there that compared to the Vitamix...until I discovered the Blendtec! After a lot of research, I bought the Blendtec Total Blender and love it. It does everything my Vitamix could do. For cleaning and getting all the product out of the container, I prefer the Blendtec. For nut butters, I also prefer the Blendtec, in the twister jar. The twister jar also makes wonderful small serving size "ice cream" out of bananas or any other frozen fruit...no additional ingredients needed. Smoothies are quick and smooth. The lid is so easy to get off, unlike the Vitamix. Don't get me wrong, the Vitamix does a good job of everything also, but it's big and heavy and somewhat frustrating to work with because of this (and the difficult lid). Also, it seems to me that my Blendtec is much quieter. BTW, before I ordered the Blendtec I did actually purchase the new Vitamix with the shorter container. After putting it on my counter and struggling with the lid, my husband and I both agreed that we needed to return it and find a different option. That is when I started my research and found the Blendtec. BTW, Vitamix did have an excellent return policy! It is enjoyable using the Blentec. It was a chore using the Vitamix. Was also happy that the Blendtec was $200 less than the Vitamix.

We love this blender. We are a green smoothie famiky and use it every day for smoothies.it can handle a fully packed bkender with no problem. We alsi grind whoke bean coffee in the blender. Does an excellent job and at a better price than comparable blenders.
