 The Best Blender - ever! November 24, 2008
W. Falk (Austin, TX)
This is the best bender we have ever had. Cannot praise this one enought. Makes anything to perfection and is quiet. Looks great too.
This blender ROCKS!!!!! November 23, 2008

This is the best blender I have ever bought. My husband ordered it after having dinner with friends who had one... this is a first already as he never has much interest in appliances... so for something to impress him enough to search out and buy it is not him. Once we use it, I am in love!!! It makes shakes, smoothies and ritas like no other! No more airpockets and taking it off and banging on counter top to settle mixture back to bottom... On smoothie mode, it does it for you!! AWESOME!!
Unquestionably the best blender I've used November 14, 2008
Karl Jenkins (Saint Petersburg, FL United States)
After much research and hand-wringing, I finally made the plunge and ordered 750-watt Breville blender from Amazon back in May 2008. Now that six months have passed, I figured I'd weigh in on my experience. I'm pleased to say that my comments echo most of the others here - this is an incredibly powerful, reliable, and easy-to-maintain appliance. I use it to make smoothies about 4 times per week and it handles the task effortlessly and without flaw.
I have owned two KitchenAid blenders since the early 90s (since I *thought* that was the premier blender brand at the time) and was always disappointed by the lack of smoothness in the final, blended product. No worries on that point with the Breville - the pre-programmed "Smoothie" function goes for a full minute and finishes off any chunks/large pieces along the way. Breville's advertising emphasizes the fact that their blending blades are unique in their ability to fully blend everything; this appears to be true and not marketing hyperbole.
I thought I had a leaking problem at one point, but it turns out that I simply didn't re-assemble the jar tightly enough after washing it. It is worth mentioning how well it comes apart for cleaning - it was designed with this in mind and is just another example of the great amount of thought that obviously went into this product.
At this point, I'm a full-fledged Breville convert.
second time's the charm November 7, 2008

When I got the blender, it worked for 3 days, and then would only stay on for 3 seconds before stopping (except on ice crush.) I called Breville. They said they would send me a replacement citing mechanical failure. After I dropped it off at Fed X, it took about 4 weeks for the replacement to come. So far, it works great. The smoothie function rocks!
Great Blender! October 30, 2008

After reading most of the reviews I decided to purchase this blender. I bought it about a week ago, and have been using it every day to make smoothies. It's a very powerful blender, and you don't have to babysit it as it's doing it's thing. It also doesn't leave any chunks of ice or fruit behind which is great! My only complaint is the rubber gasket, it may leak on you if you don't have it on right.
