Hamilton Beach Power Elite Blender with 12 Functions for Puree, Ice Crush, Shakes and Smoothies 3-Cup 58149

It works great

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

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!! 😊😊

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
