Powerful, Reliable, and Easy to Use
I use this blender at work and I love it. It’s powerful enough to crush ice and blend smoothies quickly, and the glass jar feels sturdy (not flimsy like some plastic ones). The 12 functions are handy I’ve used it for smoothies, shakes, and even pureeing sauces. Cleanup is easy too since the jar, blades, and lid are all dishwasher safe.For the price, it’s a solid blender that does exactly what it promises without taking up too much counter space. Definitely a workday MVP for me.

Great Smoothie Blender
I don’t know why I was looking at blenders that cost 10x as much, because this thing does the job and does it well. I had a Ninja blender for years, and loved using it, but when it came time to replace it I just couldn’t justify paying that amount again. Especially when my parents have a 40 year old Hamilton Beach blender that still works well. I only use my blender for smoothies, so I can’t speak to all the other functions of this blender (or others). With that said, I can throw all manner of frozen fruits into this blender and it doesn’t struggle. I’ve had issues with other blenders struggling to get the protein powder off of the walls of the pitcher, but not this one. The consistency is great, and it’s not nearly as loud as some other brands out there. My smoothies are blended within seconds. I appreciate how easy it is to clean too and that it can be taken apart quickly. It takes up less space, is lighter, and still has ample capacity as compared to my old Ninja. 10/10 would buy again, although given how well it’s made, I probably won’t be needing to buy another.

Durability
Works pretty well. Dislike that the lid is hard to put on, does not want to go on easy, needs to be pushed down pretty hard. Pretty well made for a reasonable price blender.

Blended by love
Ease of taking apart to clean. Love the feature that forces contents to the bottom blades. Good quality product. I use it for smoothies & comes out just as good as your local smoothie shop. Good power, nice weight, & the seal is great. No leaks which is awesome compared to my old blender.

Wish I had returned this
Updating from Oct 2024 (purchased July 2023): This blender really isn’t good, or at least maybe I got a dud. Currently my blender only works 1/5 times and I have to finagle it around to get it to start. A weird smoky burning smell happens when it’s running as well. It also leaves odd black marks all over my (white!) countertops, and I can’t figure out if this is the rubber on the bottom or if literally something is coming out of it. It’s basically just a paper weight at this point. And all I use it for is making smoothies. It rarely even blends up all the fruit. Not a great use of my money even if it was a ‘good price.’ It’s a loss if you have to replace it every year. Ugh.Original: I don’t know about this blender. I bought it during Prime Day because my old blender (a Black & Decker one I got in college and probably got on a Black Friday deal) had recently broken. There are so many blender options available that it is quite overwhelming to pick one especially with all the features they have, but since my old B&D was “basic,” I figured I didn’t need like a Ninja-level blender for my purposes (I literally plan to only make things like smoothies or milkshakes with this). The only requirement I wanted was a blender with a glass jar. this is just what I am used to , but I also noticed that many blenders with plastic jars (including a ninja one I was considering) had reviews that stated plastic jars may crack. So, with that being part of my search criteria, I saw this Hamilton Beach one for an ok price and it had many positive reviews, so I decided to pick it up. With that said, when I received this blender I already missed my B&D one in “look and feel.” While I think the glass jar is a nice size/shape, I don’t like the quality of the lid. I thought having a pour spout would be nice, but it just feels so flimsy and cheap and when you use it it’s like another messy thing to clean. I’m not sure what it adds on just pouring straight from the glass pitcher. Plus I find it cheap and plastic-y and it is difficult to pull off of the glass jar (I’ve literally damaged my nails trying to release it). In terms of function, I don’t think this is all that powerful. I have probably used it about 5-7 times so far, and I’d say 40% of the time I’ve had to “assist” the blender to process my food because it will get stuck. I have literally only made smoothies with this (and that is all I really intend to use it for). I followed the directions, saying put in liquids first, followed by fruit. My blender literally only has milk, yogurt, and frozen fruit, and it is not able to effectively blend that consistently without me having to open it and push the fruit down with a spoon. The “wave” action doesn’t seem to do much. It is also very loud. It think it is louder when it is probably working harder (like when it is blending and not pulling the fruit down). But it really sounds like a vacuum cleaner. So that is annoying because I didn’t have to stop and assist the blender on my old B&D. Since I don’t think a smoothie is all that complicated/difficult to blend, the fact that it can’t do that consistently isn’t very encouraging. So I am considering sending this back. If I can find a similarly priced blender to this, I will likely swap it for that.

Excellent blender

It’s Okay
Recently, my blender broke and I bought this during Amazon Days. The price was right and the pitcher is glass. All I use my blender for is making smoothies. My other one had a blade that went all the way up and seemed to be quicker and more quiet. This one is quite noisy and takes forever. Keep in mind my smoothies consist of frozen fruit, yogurt and almond milk. The pitcher is smaller than my old one, but this one will do. I’ve used the self cleaning cycle and it worked pretty good. I’ve also put the pitcher and parts in the dishwasher. Totally dishwasher safe! The lid goes on tight like a Tupperware lid, so it stays on great during the blending process. It’s a little difficult to take off, but I don’t mind.

I’ve used this blender more or less on a daily basis with frozen fruits and vegetables for about two months. I knew that I would be getting a lot of use out of it, and have had experience with both low end blenders (always disappointing) and high end blenders (from working at a smoothie making business), and was a little bit hesitant to purchase one at this price point, rather than investing in a higher end, more powerful one.However, I was happily surprised by both the quality and easy of use of this blender. It has a very solid glass jar (I’ve had bad experiences with cracks in the jars of cheaper plastic blenders). It also comes apart for easy cleaning and can go in the dishwasher. It’s so easy to clean and used so frequently in my household that I rarely need to put it in the dishwasher unless I’m in a rush. The motor may not be as powerful as some more high end blenders, but as long as you make sure to start with a liquid base, it has no trouble blending frozen foods.The only caveat that I have is that, about a month into use, my unit started leaking. At first, I thought it was because I was putting it back together incorrectly, but then I noticed a small crack in the plastic/rubber ring in the cutter assembly. After wondering how difficult it would be to get the part replaced, I continued using it for a few weeks, but finally made the call to the Hamilton Beach office in Canada today.The real reason that I had to post this review was the pleasant and quick service that I got while making that call. All I had to do was give them the product model/series and describe the part that was affected. There was no fuss about proof or purchase or anything else. The new part is free because of the 3 year warranty and they charged me $5 for shipping (which I knew I would be paying anyway because of the clear warranty policy). It should arrive within 7-10 days. When you purchase a product that is not so high end, you sometimes worry about the service that you’ll receive if any problems come up. I will not hesitate to purchase similar products from Hamilton Beach in the future if they have such an easy to access warranty service.
