Currently the Waring MBB518 Professional Quality Food & Beverage Blender, Stainless Steel has a 3 1/2 stars out of 5 at Amazon for the quality of this blender. It claims to be a bar blender and seems to live up to that claim. Many customers agree that this blender has no problem making smoothies and chopping up ice, the only point that seems to come across from those who didn’t like the blender was the feeling that the glass pitcher was going to fall off the unit.

Overall a very powerful blender but the Waring Blender seems to be lacking in the way it’s set up the glass pitcher on the unit. Might just be worth the price to check out.
