This is my first "power" blender; I didn't know what I was missing. I've had many blenders in the past that couldn't make a good margarita, but this can accomplish that in seconds and so much more. It is so incredibly powerful that it pulverizes any fruit and vegetables in a matter of seconds. It has several presets that includes smoothies (I use that one daily), ice cream and frozen beverage. But one of my favorite foods to make is soup. There isn't a setting, I simply add a bunch of fresh vegetables, herbs (no need to chop them up, the amazing blade does that for you) and some juice and set to 10 for about 6 minutes. Piping hot soup; it's incredible! The design is perfect for a modern kitchen; all the lights go off when it's turned off; all you see is the knob. It's pretty compact in that it fits under my kitchen cabinets; it's not bulky at all. The clean up is pretty sweet too; run water and a drop of soap on the clean setting and it's perfect in 45 seconds. The base wipes clean easily as well.

I use this blender EVERY day for smoothies in the morning and meal prep in the evening. I was impressed the very first time I used it to make a smoothie with fresh and frozen fruit, greens, and ice. It tore through it all in a matter of seconds and left me with the smoothest, ice-cold smoothie; I was hooked. I have made nut butters, and soups (if you use the manual side at level 10 for 5 minutes, you get seaming soup). I have not met a task this blender cannot do. Made my life in the kitchen so much easier.

Bought this recently to replace a Hamilton Beach that i had for years. This Blender is well made and the Blade is super strong & Sharp. Motor is soooo Powerful and pulverizes ice cubes and nuts (home made peanut butter). Looks great in my New Modern Kitchen.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I've been searching for a good blender for a long time. After several years and lots of different blenders, this one is by far the best. It's an engineering marvel tbh. It's extremely efficient in how fast it will blend and has more power than you'll ever need.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great blender. Does everything and more with one touch of a button. As a mechanical engineer, I look to buy one nice product and never need a new one. This blender is exactly that. The smoothie function is even programmed to increase and decrease speeds to make sure it is blended correctly. Great product! Now I need to get the smaller one too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After almost 40 years it was time for a new blender and WOW! This is an amazing appliance with so many options as well as a powerful motor unlike anything I’ve had in the past. A big plus is that is is GORGEOUS on the countertop.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I use the blender at least three times a week for smoothies and it is fantastic!! The smoothies consistency are amazing no matter the vegetables or fruits used, love it when u do nit have to chew amy smoothies:) Clean up is a breeze, I did read the other reviewers review on the handle on the jar but that is a minor issue. I pressed the lever with a thin toothpick while water under water and the handle was cleaned. Looking to purchase the personal blender!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a stylish and sleek unit. The photos online are nothing compared to the asthmatic feel of the unit once it’s sitting on your counter. After I got over how much I enjoyed the look of this machine I wondered if the performance would meet my expectations and it most definitely did! The power on this unit is just incredible. Worth every penny!

This brand new Zwilling blender will give other blenders a run for their money. With so many speed and custom settings, this blender will easily tackle whatever you put in to the 64oz carafe with the innovative blade shapes that are made in Germany. It's quieter than most blenders while remaining super powerful, resulting in perfect smoothies, caramel frappaccinos or tomato bisque! The sleek design will look great on your counter and whether you use the self-clean option or not, this jar is so easy and safe to clean.

Wow, the power behind this blender is terrific, but the technology is what makes it exceptional. The wave shape of the bottom helps bring the liquids up to the blade rather than fall below and not get blended. The shape of the blade seems to make the biggest difference on the way food and ice are processed. It actually cuts thru it rather than mashing it. The thicker blades will last much longer and the winglets make the motion more efficient, giving many more years of use.
