[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What’s wonderful about this product is that it pulverizes the seeds in the frozen add-in packets I add to smoothies. It takes about two cycles of about 46 seconds to totally blend together yogurt, milk, egg white powder, frozen berries, frozen fruit, and frozen açaí or dragon fruit packets. Seeds disappear. The ingredients blend together to make creamy, frozen goodness through and through. Best smoothies ever! One thing, though: the handle gets gunk in it during the dishwashing, which is frequent, and it’s difficult or impossible to get out. But that is only cosmetic. Does not interfere with the brilliant blending this blender does!

This is an amazing feat of technology, design and manufacturing. To have an attractive machine with the power to grind and liquefy the toughest vegetables is one thing. But t have it with all the conveniences - 12-speeds, 6-presets, power to handle large volume - and to do it at this price is amazing. This machine has all the features of the super high-end machines, but for a fraction of the price.

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.

I was looking for a new blender a few months ago and happening into a well known kitchen store. That day they had decided to put out 6 blenders from different manufacturers side by side filled with colored water so you could test all of the speeds and hear how the machine sounded. The Zwilling sounded like a high performance sports car. Low and throaty not high and whiney like most of the other blenders. The sound got my attention first but then going through the speeds and presets I really was able to get a feel for how great this power blender is. The presets cover most of what I need a blender to do and the speeds are true speeds with gradual increases from 1 on up. I discovered it will make a hot soup if it's runs for 6-8 minutes. I really like the fact that the blender will not start or run if the lid is not fully engaged. I don't want to admit how many times we have had a blow up in our kitchen due to poor lid management. All and all I am super happy with the quality and performance of this blender and it's at a great price with a 5 Year warranty to boot!

(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!

I've been using this blender nonstop since I've gotten it. I love how well it makes everything, from smoothies to more smoothies, the way the blade can break down frozen or hard foods and make everything smooth is awesome! I've made hummus, and pesto sauces in this blender and it's done a great job. Love the sleek look of it and I want to keep it out on my counter top. It's a great quality blender!

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.

I love how this blender looks on my counter top with how modern and sleek it is. I make smoothies for my daughter in this almost everyday and it blends up frozen fruit to a smooth consistency super quick and much quieter than my last blender. I also love the self cleaning mode where I put some warm water and a little dish soap and I'm able to walk away to come back to a clean blender!

Liking the blender so far. Sleek, stylish, clean design. But the major fall back, is the dishwasher; food bits get stuck in the handle, as there's an opening from underneath the plastic jar. Once food get's stuck in there, goodluck trying to clean it out. It's a pain and hassle, no matter how much you try and flush it out. Probably won't be 100% clean again, and not sure if there's a device out there that can clean it. Machine runs well so far, but has a slight burning smell. Would add more stars, but getting grossed out with the dirt build-up.
