Equipped with a durable 0.9 horsepower motor, this countertop blender works great for everything from pureed soup, salsa, and hummus to protein shakes, smoothies, or margaritas with friends on a Friday night. Choose from five speed settings, plus pulse at any speed for an extra burst of power. The unit's Intelli-Speed electronic sensor automatically adjusts the power to maintain a consistent speed even with thicker mixtures, while its solid die-cast metal base with a steel-reinforced coupler and sharp one-piece stainless-steel blade ensures stability and quiet operation. The blender's lightweight 56-ounce polycarbonate one-piece pitcher offers a generous soft-grip handle, drip-free pour spout, and textured lid with a 2-ounce cap for adding ingredients while mixing. In addition, the pitcher's shatter-, stain-, and scratch-resistant design ensures long-lasting performance, and its shape directs ingredients into the blade for fast, thorough blending. Other highlights include an automatic crush-ice button, an advanced airflow design that keeps the blender cool during continued use, and four rubber feet on a wide base that provide a nonslip, non-marring grip. Dishwasher-safe parts make cleanup a snap, the seamless Clean Touch control pad wipes clean in an instant, and the cord can be stored underneath when not in use for tidy countertops. An illustrated instruction guide with recipes comes included. Available in a variety of fashionable colors, the blender measures 9 by 7-1/4 by 15-3/16 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Search for the holy blender...,
By Band Dad (Orlando, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: KitchenAid KSB560MC 5-Speed Blender with Polycarbonate Jar, Metallic Chrome (Kitchen)
I have been looking for a blender for a few weeks now. We have started making smoothies at home and burned up our old one. Our girls like the "Chocolate Elvis" recipe from the local smoothie place which contains peanutbutter, bananas, yogurt, ice, and milk. I guess this is really hard on blenders. I bought one at Target 2 weeks ago that had "700 watts peak power" on the box. It died in 2 days. The power spec on the bottom of the blender said 450 watts. I think that is false advertisement. I have seen this on 2 different blenders now.
I have been leery of buying any blender with the little plastic teeth couplers because of all the bad reviews here on Amazon. I also wanted to stay away from anything with only 450 watts. I was in another store and saw this blender. It has a new design for where the blades couple with the motor. "Commercial quality couplers with 12 interlocking teeth....coated for quiet operation". We have had it for a few days now and have made some pretty thick smoothies. So far, so good. No burning smell like the one that was immediately apparent with the Target blender. My youngest daughter complanied that her smoothie was "too smooth". I guess she got used to the chunks of ice that our past blenders have left. Kitchenaid doesn't seem to advertise the actual power specs on their blenders. On the bottom of this one it says that it draws 6 amps. Which is about 720 watts or about 0.9 horsepower. My only complaint so far is the soft start feature. The blade starts at a slower speed then quickly increases to the speed you chose. This process still throws everything up into the lid, which is what it should prevent. It works fine though as long as you have the lid on. It also works if you start with the slowest speed and work your way up. Overall this blender seems to be well made and pretty well thought out. The cord storage on the bottom is a great feature. It has much bigger feet than the previous model. So far, I would highly recommend this blender for the person looking for a good blender in the under $200 range. Added comments: It is a year and about 300 smoothies later and we still have this blender. I would highly recommend it!!

They Redesigned The Container (carafe)!!!,
By Robert Derenthal "bucherwurm" (California United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: KitchenAid 5-Speed Blenders with Polycarbonate Jars (Kitchen)
We bought this Kitchenaid blender over a year ago, and after several months the container started to leak. The leak was small, and we put up with it for awhile. We finally got tired of the mess, however, and called the factory. We were told that the container had been redesigned, and they would send us a new one immediately even though our warranty had expired. When we got the new one we could see that it had indeed been redesigned, and have used it for some time now, and NO LEAKS. A leak proof container plus the other great features of this blender now warrant a definite five stars.

Do Yourself a Favor and Buy this Fantasitc Blender,
By AG Pym (Bookland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: KitchenAid KSB560MC 5-Speed Blender with Polycarbonate Jar, Metallic Chrome (Kitchen)
My husband and I make smoothies almost every single night (as in, 6-7 nights/week), so we're really hard on our blenders. We have been through 4 blenders in the last 3 years alone. We started with a cheap Oster blender, but quickly realized that it was pretty much useless for the thick smoothies we like to make. Next, I bought the Back to Basics Smoothie Elite, which was great for as long as it held up, but as it turned out, that was only 6 months. So, we upgraded to the Back to Basics Smoothie Professional, which was great until I dropped the glass jar into the sink and broke it, only to find that you couldn't buy a new one ANYWHERE so my $120 blender was now worthless.
After all this, I decided to stop fooling around and buy a Kitchenaid. This blender has all the power you need (way more power than any of the first 3 blenders I bought; both the smoothie blenders came with a stir stick, but such a thing isn't even necessary when you have the power of this Kitchenaid), and is a steal at $99, since we've had it for a year now and it's still as good as new. The motor is unstoppable, the blade is fantastic, it cleans easily, the jar is polycarbonate (i.e. unbreakable if you drop it), and there is a removable plastic piece in the lid in case you do want to use a stir stick. I love this blender, and when it dies (which I hope/believe will be years from now, given how reliable my other Kitchenaid appliances are) I will be replacing it with the exact same make and model. It's everything a blender should be! 2115|RUBKB2OP0IVY1;2115|R2IEINYYOE0BWO;2115|R2HO7WJG545N89;
