It’s a blender and food processor combo worth its weight in the dozens of meals it will prepare. The 40-ounce glass blender jar whirs at the touch of one of seven speeds, and includes a special setting for crushing ice and a pulse button for soups or drinks. To slice or shred vegetables or fruit, simply remove the blender, replace it with the three-cup work bowl, collar and cover, and you’re off! Even tough jobs like grinding beef cubes or grating Parmesan cheese are a breeze. A chopping blade and reversible slicing/shredding disc are included. The food processor’s unique design lets you position the handle and feed tube facing front, side or rear, handy whether you’re right or left-handed. Extra amenities include indicator lights so you know what functions are in operation, a hidden cord storage, dripless pouring spout and a feed tube pusher with a built-in liquid dispenser. This Duet appliance is great for smaller kitchens and apartments with limited counter space and cupboard storage.

The Cuisinart CSB-44N Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blender comes with 3 out of 5 stars from customers at Amazon. The Cuisinart Cordless Hand Blender blends well, but many found that the rechargable batteries didn’t hold a charge well.

The Cuisinart CBT-500W SmartPower Premier 600-Watt Blender gets 3 stars out of 5 at Amazon by customers who bought this blender. One person who bought this blender found that when using it, it smelled like buring tires when the motor was run. On a good note, one customer had to say the following:

The jar’s shape helps the food move and mix better than a round jar. The jar’s size is larger than any I have found. I pour from the corner of the jar if the mix is too thick to pour from the spout (which I concede is a little wide). The weight keeps the blender in place. The shipping weight is around 15 LBS is that too heavy? Maybe you should skip the smoothies and switch to a muscle building drink. Most every quality blender has weight to it. The plastic units are light and considered disposable. Keep buying those $30 disposable blenders if you want, however I’ll keep my Cuisinart!
