In the past, I used a 14 oz Hamilton Beach blender and a 50 oz Proctor Silex blender. This year, I bought 72 oz Ninja blender because I needed it for 2-quart ice cream recipes.
Well you mustn't have used it. I had a 5200 and the jug melted on the first usage. I tried to blend porridge oats and some water. I have the pictures to prove it and vitamix refunded me
interesting but there is a way! this method doesn't work with everything but will work with breaking down the kale and it works when you make nut milk. freeze the 'dry' ingredients first (nuts or kale) and then put them in the blender with liquid... i've got an old oster blender i've had for 30+years that still makes nut milk that is so creamy that i don't bother straining it.... freeze the nuts (or kale) first before adding (i store nuts in the freezer). the freezing process makes the water in the cell walls expand and the addition of water and the blending causes those cell walls to shatter making a very smooth result (it's physics and science :wink:). for nut butters i prefer the wider food processor... besides smooth nut butter is really boring and sticks more to the roof of your mouth. lol
Yep.. food processor would be good. One thing about cheap FP though, I'm assuming based on my cheapo FP, they can run for a long time at a time, without burning the motor (as opposed to complaints I've read on pricey ones). I'm using Philips, very cheap, I tend to let it run for like 5 minutes at a time to process nut butters before I stop to give the motor a rest and restart, till I get my nuts processed. It's been serving me for 6 years and still going strong. Some pricey ones have problems with their motors if you let them run for more than a minute at a time.
Sandra Halliday Cuisinart custom 14 cup, Cuisinart 11 cup prep plus, Breville sous chef 16 and cuisinart mini prep plus are the better ones Edit: forgot the magimix 14 cup and the breville sous chef 12
I use my Vitamix at least twice daily to make whole fruit/veg smoothies for the past five years. I've only had to replace the dial once. Got my mom one four years ago - still kicking. Dunno what you're doing to break your blenders.
Why would heating the food up be used as a test with higher marks given for higher heat? Wouldn't your blender cooking your food be an undesirable trait?
Agree. No one wants a warm smoothie, ice and frozen berries all the way. Also, wouldn't the heat also indicate that the blender uses energy inefficiently? And long-term wise, isn't it better for the machine if it doesn't heat up? That's why everything electric that we use has been designed to not over-heat right?
This only happens when you intentionally try to do it. To heat food you have to run the blender on full speed for like 3-5 minutes which with a high powered blender isn't necessary for a smoothie or other cold use. Also both Vitamixes and Blendtecs come with a 6-8 year warranty so damage to the machine isn't a huge concern. If you are a really hard user it might break in 4-5 years of heavy daily use, but they will replace it.
The heat in the soup was generated by friction between the blades and the soup and not from the heat transfer between motor and the container. With a more powerful blender, I can finish blending cold things faster. Which means that the content will have less time hearing up.
I'm sure there has to be a comment already but do we know I'd he spent the same time doing the task for each blender. Also would've been helpful tip know if.. had he spent more time blending in maybe the cheaper ones would the result be similar? Update: typed too soon lol
I've had my blender for 21 years already and still good

Good test. But for the BlendTec, the peanut butter at least should have been tried with the unique twister jar, maybe even the flour. That's what it is made for, after all.
Two points: the Blendtec twister jar not the one used here is intended for peanut butter. If you are going to spend $$ on a blender you'd probably get both Blendtec jars. Second, cleaning, I would not look forward to cleaning peanut butter from the Vitamix with its sharp blades, it's a breeze with the Blendtec.
Yes let's all test blenders with things we would rarely if ever use a blender for to justify the cost. Blenders are mostly for smoothies and bar drinks. The bonus of not heating up my product was what I thought better. That's just me...an old chunk of coal. Not wasting 500 on a blender for processing better done by other cheaper products.
I got a blender in the sale section of ASDA supermarket for £11. I only use it to make alcoholic beverages with ice. If it breaks, so be it ill get another. I can get about 30 of these blenders for the price of the cheapest vitamix (£350) which would still break after a while. My advice buy cheap, abuse it, break it and replace. Mines lasted several months of hard use and does what I need it to do.
Morgan Childs I love condescending UA-cam comments like this. Nothing portrays insecurity more conspicuously. PS: Nice job up-voting your own UA-cam comment, god knows no one else would.
be great if you could compare froothie.co.uk/optimum-9200/ blender against them, as it is 2611w powerful value blender but not sure if its as good as it sounds. please review esp want to know if they last, thanks in advance
One day you are young without responsibilities, the next day you are searching "the best blender budget" haha
But where is the 18 dollar blender from Walmart? you should have thrown that one in just to see.
I love that you are entertaining and you didn’t talk about nonsense for 15 minutes before doing the review. It was good I really liked it
I've had my Vitamix for 10+ years. Absolute Godsend!
YOU ARE SO ENTERTAINING!!! and your editing is Superb! Keep it up.
My favorite video of blenders comparisons! Thank you very much! But I would love to see an ice cream battle!
In the past, I used a 14 oz Hamilton Beach blender and a 50 oz Proctor Silex blender.
This year, I bought 72 oz Ninja blender because I needed it for 2-quart ice cream recipes.
My Vitamix 5000 only lasted twenty-five years. Nothing lasts these days.
Wow. That’s worth the 500 buck!
@@ssammyc twenty-five years ago that was under $200 (last day at LA county fair) and I got 2 blending canisters too.

Still have my mother's old beehive blender, Oster I think but it's over 50 years old.
How well do they blend phones?
*Does it blend, though?*

for nut butters i prefer the wider food processor... besides smooth nut butter is really boring and sticks more to the roof of your mouth. lol
Can you do a video like this for food processors??
Yep.. food processor would be good. One thing about cheap FP though, I'm assuming based on my cheapo FP, they can run for a long time at a time, without burning the motor (as opposed to complaints I've read on pricey ones).

@@bl6973 Thanks!
We've gone through a lot of blenders... they all break eventually. No matter what they cost, and where they were made.
I use my Vitamix at least twice daily to make whole fruit/veg smoothies for the past five years. I've only had to replace the dial once. Got my mom one four years ago - still kicking. Dunno what you're doing to break your blenders.
I would have liked to have visually seen the results of the smoothie. It was difficult to see from this distance.
I have a Hamilton Beach. With a food processor attachment. Love it.
What’s funny is that high powered blender rave about nut butters when a nut butter could really just be achieved with a food processor
They should change their markerting I would buy them to mill flour.
Good fun and I love the music. Bopped along with learning...learnt a lot.
Generating heat is not a desirable property
Jake Surname i was thinking the exact same....
Its all dependent on time and speed, you have the choice.
I'm surprised you didn't include the Ninja blender here. I thought it was pretty affordable and works amazing.
David Mitchell I hate it be honest
I've had mine for years now and it's awesome. What are you using?
@Michael Rodriguez How are they wrong when it's their experience with that product?
I had a ninja for years but when it died, I got the Vitamix e310 on sale. The Vitamix is far better in my opinion and I think worth the money.
The Ninja is really just a multi level food processor
do more vids like this reviewing kitchen hardware
Never heard a knife referred to as a chopper. I wonder if Arnold says that. GET ME THE CHOPPER!!!
thank you for making this vid, appreciate it! 😎👍
How loud is each blender though?

Best review on blenders. Great work
4:34 plot twist he actually testing babies diapers
How do each of these blenders do at making a Margarita???
Really well made video guys!!
Why do you have to hold the cap down?
Ive been extremely happy with making smoothies in my @t! I cannot wait for warmer weather/summer to bring it with me to make beach margaritas!!
Comparisons will always be limited if the Waring XT variable speed models are not included.

The twister jar is a pretty pricey add-on accessory that's not included. I think it's pretty fair that it wasn't used here.
Thanks!
About smeg blender any hint??? Does it make chickpeas powder or date powder lets say
That Philly hot dog poster is from a place called Hot Diggity, too bad they closed though. Are you guys from Philly??
Is Kitchen aid affordable? Man that one is more than $200 at Walmart in my country. That's more money than my weekly payment.
Wish you tested Oster

THE PRICE?????
Bottom line...get Vitamix 👍🏻
What kind of shirt is that?
Yall should update this video with a ninja and a magic bullet... kitchen aid and cuisinart are nif range... they are stil expensive
No Ninja?

Or you can blend it a few min more...
Yo my idea of affordable is under 25$..... who has 100$ to blow on a blender??
Yea! Who has 100$ to blow on a measly, feeble blender, one of the most versatile pieces of equipment in the kitchen?!
I would like to see Vitamix compare to Ninja or Magic Bullet Pro... KitchenAid is okay Cusinart is not that good (in my opinion).
No ice!

All the vitamix hypers. 🙈
@Tian333 I got a vitamix. It broke after only two weeks of use.
@Tian333 KitchenAid 5-Speed Diamond Blender or Ninja Professional Plus Blender with Auto-iQ.
this dude said qweezinart
how do you say it?
@@seriousgamer64 I assumed it was pronounced Kwi-ZEEN-art, but I'm British.
Vitamix is #1. It’s Made in the USA and comes with a fantastic warranty.
What made in the USA has to do with anything?
Misha HJ Quality Control and oversight of production. Yada yada......
Same with the Blendtecs, made in the US and comes with an 8 year warranty. They do both have their strengths and weaknesses though.
Vitamix hands down!
Why was the "soup" cooked but the smoothie wasn't???
NTH THN different settings
Soup was blendend for 5 mins, smoothie less then a 1 min i guess
No golfballs ??? Unsubbed + disliked.

Why are you wearing your hat inside?
A flat cap is designed to keep your head warm, which is presumably not necessary once you're inside a kitchen, blending things for hours on end.
