Brevillethe Q BBL820SHY1BUS1 Commercial Grade 1800-Watt Quick Super Blender

I really struggled with switching brands but am I ever glad I did. I had a Vita-mix for years and when I finally wore it out I purchased another one of that brand. It never ran right from the first day and customer service never stood behind it. After one year one morning it just went dead so I sent shopping. I saw this Breville brand and because we've been so very pleased with our Breville hot water pot I took a chance and ordered this blender with hesitation. I IMMEDIATELY upon receiving it knew I made a good decision and every day I'm just more pleased. It's powerful. The pre-programmed blending times are awesome even though at first I wondered why I'd need them. I LOVE the wider brimmed blender jar and the lid is tight and secure and easy to snap on and get off once you figure out how to do it. It was worth every single penny which was less than my previous brand which never held up on the second one. Would I buy this again? Yes, in a heartbeat.

After suffering with a blender brand that rhymes with inja. We are exceptionally impressed. What makes this device stand out is the excellent engineering on multiple levels. From ease of cleaning, large container, large blades, powerful motor and simple yet intuitive controls this machine stands out from the rest. Its power creates the best smoothies, it pulverizes the seeds and grains I put in mine bringing them to the next level. Sure you can get a cheaper blender, but you haven't lived, if you are serious about blending stuff, until you have tried this one. In fact, that goes for the other products made by Breville. Not really that expensive when you consider products made by them will last a lifetime and perform incredibly. There is no question this is one of the top 5 mass market blenders made.

I love this blender, it makes a terrific smoothie for a large family in one shot.However it died after 2.5 years of daily use. Yes I ordered another, we will see how long the 2nd one lasts.

I loved this blender initially, but no one pays this much to love a blender for 2 years.The blade assembly broke repeated times. Unlike Vitamix, the Breville required videos and extensive back and forth for each replacement, which requires an entirely new blender cup to be sent out. I was told recently the blender cup is no longer under warranty.I decided to stick with the Vitamix, and I believe you should, too, based on 25 years of experience using high powered blenders.If you use your blender daily for something other than smoothies, ie, anything that would break a common blender, the Breville cannot stand up to it and will break within months. Not worth the hype, the cost, or the hassle.
