Cuisinart CBT-1000 PowerEdge 1.3 Horsepower Blender with 64-Ounce BPA Free Jar, Brushed Stainless


Best blender ever!
I looked at what seemed to be a million blenders. I do a lot of vegan and raw foods but I didn't want to spend upwards of $400. I love this blender! It has handled everything I hoped it would, including frozen fruits for smoothies. It is very quiet for a blender. I like the die-cast base, the simple controls (who really needs 14 settings?), and the pulse setting. The only minor flaw is the difficulty in getting out the last 1/4 cup of whatever I've made. Overall, I very much recommend this blender.
Greatest blender I've ever owned!
After my 15th cheap blender in the past 4 years, I decided to quit buying garbage and put my money to better use and bought the cuisinart CBT-1000 poweredge 1000watt Die Cast Blender. Sure it cost $$ compared to the ones I had bought, but I wanted something durable and THIS thing IS durable! It has a really large 64oz jar that's made of a nonbreakable BPA material. Normally I would say glass or nothing, but realizing that a jar that size in glass would be highly unwieldy, I decided to let that slide.

Operation of the blender is simple. There aren't 20 buttons to sift through to try to find the perfect thing. Honestly, how many of us know the difference between puree, cream, and whip functions anyhow?!? It has HIGH, LOW, SMOOTHIE, ICE CRUSH, and Pulse. That's all you need! It also has a tiny digital counter that counts UP how long it's been blending. That's a good thing to know when you are trying to decide the perect consistency of a smoothie or even a frozen...
Excellent blender
This review is from the standpoint of a smoothie maker. It is all I use it for so my review will be constrained to how it functions as a smoothie maker only.

Every day this blender makes a perfect smoothie for 2 to 3 people in one batch.

It is a high quality, extremely well made and designed, high quality blender.

It is high power and is not one of those that runs very fast.

It does not emit any electrical odors, even when run at high speed.

The blades are very thick and well made.

The plastic jug is made from a high quality, restaurant grade plastic.

It has a smoothie setting. Click it and in less then 30 seconds, this blender easily auto makes a smoothie out of these typical ingredients.

12 oz bag of rock hard frozen strawberries
16 oz of Yogurt
3 bananas
3 oz whole oatmeal (the unprocessed thick kind)
Handful of raw almonds (about 25)
Orange juice...
