Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Blendtec Total Blender Four Side, Black
Customer Review: Awesome Blender: Power, Performance, and Durability.
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought mine over 18 months ago and waited before writing up a review. In that period, I've used this blender daily, sometimes multiple times per day. It has held up under this constant, heavy use -- no problems with parts or performance at all. It performs as well today as when I bought it, unlike previous blenders I've owned that rely on sharpness of their blades.
I got this blender to improve my diet by adding more whole fruit and vegetable smoothies. This device supplements my juicing by allowing me to blend whole fruits and retain one of the most beneficial part of the fruit (the fiber).
This Blender is extremely powerful and does a great job creating consistent, smooth drinks from whole fruits. Yes it's VERY loud, but when I got my blood pressure and cholesterol tests back and every time I weigh myself, I consider the roar of this machine music to my ears!
Despite what some reviewers claim, this blender does NOT need a tamper. I've never felt the need for one, and as I mentioned I blend whole fruits and make thick shakes. The Blendtec is designed to oscillate or pulse rather than maintain a constant speed as other blenders do. This prevents a vacuum from being created and allows inputs to settle into the blade. On occassion when I have been too lazy to cut my fruit into smaller pieces and found some chunks, a second cycle or use of the "pulse" function is all it took to make a perfect shake.
As another reviewer mentioned, this blender is great for entertaining -- both as a functional appliance and as a conversation piece.
Customer Review: Awesome blender
Summary: 5 Stars
Perfect blender. Just dump the stuff in, push a button, and let it do its job. A little loud but what do you expect with 1,500 watts of power? If sound is really an issue, upgrade to the commercial one and go for the Q-series.Customer Review: Awesome product!

Works fantastic! Much quieter than most blenders with this power. Fits under the cupboard and the control system is digital. It blends everything and you can even make your own almond butter!Customer Review: Awesome...
Summary: 5 Stars
Just received it today and tried it for the first time. It worked as advertised! We made smoothies and used frozen bananas and frozen strawberries instead of using ice and fresh fruit. Using frozen fruit we have killed 1 smoothie maker and 1 blender. The Blendtec, however, didn't even flinch.
The description of the item says that it has a 32 ounce jar and in other places it says it has a 64 ounce jar. Explanation: the jar has measurement markings on the side for 32 ounces but the jar will actually hold 64 ounces.
Customer Review: Best In Class
Summary: 5 Stars
You've probably seen [...], where they basically blend almost anything. A rake, marbles, golf balls, hockey pucks, you name it they blend it up.
This blender has one of the most powerful motors, and one of the best designs. It's a workhorse, and while it is more expensive than a lot of other blenders, it should be something that you are able to pass down to your kids. It is the same blender you will find it many coffee shops and smoothie places.
