Power Elite Multi-Function Blender with Chopper Attachment

This thing is a powerhouse. I bought it primarily for smoothies, and it easily handles ice; just pulse it at short intervals until it's broken up, before you blend. The cyclonic action allows for even blending, but you may have to stop the machine, unplug, and use a silicone spatula to push thicker ingredients off the inside of the container for thicker things like guac or baby food. Be sure to add enough liquid to avoid straining the motor!It's easy to clean - either run a quick blend cycle with a half container of water and a drop of dish soap, or take it apart and wash the components separately. And it comes with a mini food processor attachment that's surprisingly powerful - I've made flour from oats, nut butters, and powdered sugar from granulated, pulsing in short bursts to avoid straining the motor.You can't go wrong with Hamilton Beach! Most of my appliance purchases have been theirs, and they LAST even under heavy use. An absolutely great buy.

I don't normally take the time to write product reviews, but because I'm so impressed with this blender, I'm going to do it.First off let me just say I'm a every day mom. I've never been a barista, or used any fancy specialty blender of any sort. I can't compare this to something like that. What I can say is this blender is AMAZING!!! I bought it to start making my own blended coffees and smoothies at home. I specifically chose this one because of the additional chopping attachment because we have rather large ice cubes, and I thought I would need to use that first to grind them up a bit. I was wrong. This blender does exactly what a blender is supposed to do. It blends all of it's contents into a nice smooth consistency without leaving behind those big ice chunks I was worried about. A big A+ as far as I'm concerned because I absolutely hate trying to drink my blended coffee when there's huge chunks of ice that are constantly getting stuck in my straw.The other bonus is speed. In my opinion this blender is quick. (To mean this also gives it an extra bonus for noise because it's not running do long.) My coffees have been running right around 10 - 15 seconds from start to finish to blend. Some may say "whatever", but this is a big deal for me if I'm in a hurry. I don't want to be stopping at the coffee shops because it's $6.50 every time I do. If I can make my own at home super quick it costs me less than a dollar. Plus, at home I can customize it exactly how I want it.Long story short, BUY THIS BLENDER!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!! 😊😊

his blender was okay overall. It does a good job with smoothies and basic blending, and I like that it comes with the glass jar and mini chopper for small tasks. It’s convenient for everyday use and doesn’t take up much space.That said, it struggles a bit with harder ingredients and thicker blends, so it’s not something I’d rely on for heavy-duty blending. For the price and casual use, it works fine—but if you blend frozen or dense ingredients often, you may want something more powerful.Good value, just not perfect.

This Hamilton Beach Blender is amazing! It looks great from the outside and works perfectly up till now. Its wave action blending definitely works well and blends better than other blenders that I have used in the past. The lid on this blender though is probably what I like the best about it. It avoid all spills and/or overflows while it is blending because it goes tightly over the blender and the top actually enables you to pour into something without even taking the lid off! This saves a lot of time and keeps other pitchers clean since your blender becomes the perfect pitcher! The chopper is simply an extra, but the extra works fantastic. I have made a lot of salsas and chopped tomato, onion, etc and it chops them to perfection. I really like this blender and therefore, I rate it 4 stars out of 5 stars!I hope this review helped you out!Update: I have been using this blender now for a long time and if still runs perfectly and works just like it did when I bought it. It's a fantastic blender for the price, I highly recommend it to everyone.New rating : 5 stars out of 5 stars!

Estoy muy satisfecha con esta licuadora. Tiene buena potencia, prepara los batidos de forma rápida y uniforme, y es muy fácil de limpiar. La calidad es excelente y tiene una muy buena relación calidad-precio l a recomiendo sin dudar.

I seriously wanted to love this product, but after the second use I had to return it.I decided to purchase this blender after reading the positive reviews here as well from video reviews I've seen. The price on this blender motivated to purchase it, whereas it should have made me think twice about it because in my case, I got what I paid for.I loved it the first time I used it, worked completely well for some things. The chopper itself was ok, not the best on chopping onions, or anything big. You actually have to chop large onions or anything you want to place in there into small sections in order for it to fit in the chopping bowl/container, which is the size of a large coffee mug. I had to chop the onions small enough to fit through a toilet paper roll (probably smaller than that) in order for them to reach the blades. The effort to actually use the chopper defeated the purpose of using it, it was better and faster to do it the old fashion way. The most irritating part was when using the chopper is that the blades would would move the onion pieces upwards and away from the blades and you have to constantly push down the onions to the bottom of the Chopper bowl/container.After the second day of use, I used it to make smoothies in the morning, turned out great. Later in the day I used it to make salsa, it was working well for the first 5 minutes and then smoke was coming out of the base, I unplugged it immediately fearing that a fire would start which gladly it didn't but the smell of burnt rubber filled my kitchen. The blender died immediately after that, it no longer wants to turn on.Rest in peace Blenda (the name I gave it)There's some humor to this story, my salsa killed my blender. Haha.Could be possible I got a dud. It could have been a great blender. So buyer beware, be careful when using it what happen to me could happen to you.

I use this blender to make smoothies, and it does a pretty good job.The problem with this blender is that the glass container, because of its shape and numerous indentations, is very difficult to clean. Whoever designed it is in the wrong line of work.

Muy buena. La ecuadora tiene suficiente potencia para preparar batidos, jugos y triturar. Hielo, sin problema. Es fácil de limpiar Funciona muy bien y tiene una excelente relación. Calidad-precio estoy muy satisfecha con esta compra

A real smoothie master, I'd say! Regardless of the comments from other reviewers of this item, this works great. I didn't find it too noisy at all. If you are crushing ice, add a little water to help the ice crush and from time to time use a spatula to help push the ice down and it works well. I just made a Blueberry-Banana Smoothie for myself to try it out and I can honestly say I am happy with it. It turned out pretty well and was very tasty. I have no problems with it whatsoever and I don't understand what the issue with this is. It works the same as any blender. All you need to do is follow the instruction manual and it does have one.

Doesn't work for mixing chick peas

Lo primero que destaca, es que llega muy rápido, (en mi caso fueron 3 días antes de lo programado)Al abrir el empaque de Amazon, te encuentras con la caja original, totalmente sellada y en perfecto estado.Al sacar el producto de su caja, te das cuenta de la calidad y buena apariencia que tienen todos sus accesorios.Al momento de usar la licuadora, constatas que a pesar de solo tener 2 velocidades, (media y alta), y dos maneras de accede a ellas (pulso o constante) cumple muy bien con la función de licuar en el caso de velocidad constate y de picar, en el caso del pulso.Su armado y limpieza es sumamente fácil, asi que por todo esto, en resumen: 100% RECOMENDABLE

La encontré en buena oferta, me gustó mucho, funciona correctamente

Good blender. Works well for my needs
