This is the best smoothie maker. The quality is great, we had one that was all plastic, and this is pyrex. Easy clean up. Powerful but best of all SMOOTH, no ice chunks, we had margaritia's the next 3 nights after getting it.

I've had so many blenders and none of them have worked as good as this one! I really like making mixed drinks and this blender is perfect for crushing the ice. I would and will recommend this product.

The blender is fast, powerful, and easy to clean. The main "jar" part is made of thick, sturdy GLASS (not the cheap, cheesy plastic of most other blenders) and is quite large. Assembles and disassembles easily. The best blender I've ever owned, hands down. I haven't tried the "dispensing" function yet, so will report later on that.

This thing has no problem crushing up ice. We make frozen drinks and fruit slushes with it and it's really great. Haven't had a problem.

I had been looking for a blender that would crush ice without stalling or getting jammed. This Hamilton Beach gets the job done. It's excellent for smoothies on a warm day. If power is what you need try this one and the spout is a nice feature as well.

Enjoying this blender! Like having the dispenser, and it is removable for times you don't want the hassle. Good power. Have liked all of my Hamilton Beach purchaces. Good bang for the buck!

I make fruit smoothies twice daily, at breakfast and at dinner, for those, it has been great. I am using frozen fruit pieces, but no ice cubes, and it handles those just fine. When making several smoothies at once, I use the spigot, if only 1 or 2, then I simply pour. There have been occasional small leaks with the spigot, but I found that lightly oiling the rubber parts after washing before reassembly fixed that. Just use a light, neutral taste oil like peanut or corn to avoid flavoring your drinks with it!
The blender has been trouble-free for the month and a half so far that it's been here. It replaced a 25+ year old model (brand no longer exists) that had finally quit.

A great addition to my remodeled kitchen! It replaces my old Hamilton Beach of 25 years (given to friends and still purring.)

Especially love those smoothies and homemade humus!

The only glitch is some difficulty attaching the glass securely to its base. Otherwise it performs beautifully. The dispensing spout is a nice feature.

This is one of the best value small kitchen appliances. We make smoothies and margaritas in Summer and soups in Winter. We use half-moon shape ice cubes for smoothies. Bought it 3 Summers ago and it still looked like new ...... 3 times a week at least for smoothies during Summers. You can't find a better one for under $50 and it's made in USA.

I bought this for my dad as a birthday gift because he loves making smoothies. He made one smoothie with it and it broke. I ended up returning it and getting him the Ninja.
