Amazon.com Review
Powerful, sturdy, and frill-free, the Waring Mega Mix commercial bar blender puts function first and foremost. Equipped with a one-horsepower, commercially rated motor, the unit delivers quick ice crushing and consistent blending of drinks, desserts, soups, and sauces. Operation is as simple as it gets--one metal toggle controls the two speeds--and the four-angle blades turn up to 27,000 rpm. Designed for both hot and cold ingredients, the durable 48-ounce plastic container features a broad base for tip-resistance and a flexible lid with a removable insert. Markings in ounces and liters help you track recipes. Cooks accustomed to a tight connection between container and base may find the Waring’s fit unusual at first--the container simply rests on the clutch instead of locking on. Fitted with non-skid feet and a heavy-duty three-prong cord, the blender measures 6 inches in diameter and stands 16-1/2 inches high. It carries a five-year warranty on the motor and a one-year warranty on the rest of the appliance. --Emily Bedard

This is a real blender,
By
This review is from: Waring HPB300 MegaMix Commercial Blender, Brushed Steel (Kitchen)
I bought this to replace a Kitchen Aid. The Kitchen Aid uses a coupler on top of the motor which spins the blade that's made out of rubber over metal which will break if you make lots of frozen fruit drinks. That's what I had happen. The Waring uses the same type of design, but the difference is that you can buy a replacement ($5.95) and put it on yourself with a wrench If it were to ever come apart. The Kitchen Aid has to be serviced, take apart the motor to get to it from the inside etc. This Waring Blender is very powerful! It's loud and spins very fast. Which makes it blend in a fraction of the time of others. It makes my old Kitchen-Aid seem like a childs toy in comparison. It's much more obviously commercial through heft, simplicity of design and function and servicability. It has only 2 speeds. Professional chefs say that's all you need. it has a simple toggle switch, no multiple speed electronic gimmics. Just very functional. I originally really wanted a glass container. It provided some heft to my old Kitchen-Aid and I thought that it was a sign of higher quality. I was also concerned that the blade being permenantly mounted inside the container would be hard to clean. (actually you can take it apart with a deep socket and extension, not for cleaning but blade replacement). My Kitchen Aids came apart for cleaning and I could put it in the dishwasher. I find the cleaning instruction are easy with the Waring, actually simple to clean you should just do it right away once your done mixing. Less time to clean and assemble. What I see now with comparing this to the kitchen-Aid besides what I've already mentioned, is that the Kitchen-Aid looks simple through it's visual design. It's over designed through what appear to be valuable features which only make it more complicated. You have to do more work from cleaning, assembling and servicing.

A Real Blender,

This review is from: Waring HPB300BK Mega Mix Commercial Bar Blender, Black (Kitchen)
I bought this to replace a Kitchen Aid.
The Kitchen Aid uses a coupler on top of the motor which spins the blade that's made out of rubber over metal which will break if you make lots of frozen fruit drinks. That's what I had happen.

It blends in a fraction of the time of others. It makes my old Kitchen-Aid seem like a childs toy in comparison. Note: You don't load the thing up with frozen fruit or else it may just jam and won't spin. Also you're supposed to drop the ice in from the top while it's running. It's much more obviously commercial through heft, simplicity of design and function and servicability. It has only 2 speeds. Professional chefs say that's all you need. it has a simple toggle switch, no multiple speed electronic gimmics. Just very functional. I originally really wanted a glass container. It provided some heft to my old Kitchen-Aid and I thought that it was a sign of higher quality. For a commercial application you would prefer the unbreakable quality of the polycarbon plastic as well as the lack of weight. It's light as a feather. One of the first things I noticed was that the container doesn't lock to the base. I was originally concerned, but in a commercial setting you'd just keep your hand on it since it's not going to take long to blend, and then you just quickly pull it off and pour. I was also concerned that the blade being permenantly mounted inside the container would be hard to clean. (actually you can take it apart with a deep socket and extension, not for cleaning but blade replacement). My Kitchen Aids came apart for cleaning and I could put it in the dishwasher.

It's over designed through what appear to be valuable features which only make it more complicated. You have to do more work from cleaning, assembling and servicing. The Waring on the other hand is bare bones functional. It was designed to blend and be easily serviced and quickly cleaned.

Daily user - fruit smoothies for breakfast,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Waring HPB300 MegaMix Commercial Blender, Brushed Steel (Kitchen)
Over the past 3 years, we have owned a 'commercial quality' KitchenAid with a stainless steel pitcher and a high end Oster unit.
Neither blended milk, frozen fruit, soy powder, and cottage cheese properly. The Kitchen Aid always left a blob of non-blended material plus chunks of fruit in the bottom. We purchased the Waring Mega-Mix 5 months ago after reading the reviews on Amazon.com. We use it at least once daily. Pluses: 1. Blends frozen or fresh fruit amazingly quickly and completely. 2. Mixes powders, fluids, and solids completely and efficiently. 3. Incredibly powerful motor 4. Polycarbonade pitcher is light weight and seems very strong. 5. High quality construction and commercial look to it. Minuses: 1. Initially offered us a 'burnt' odor for the first 3 weeks of use (Amazon reviews warned of this) 2. Very noisy! I have adopted a one hand over one ear and the opposite shoulder plastered against the other ear stance while keeping the other hand on the lid. 3. Does not crush ice for drinks as well as other reviewers indicated. Overview: Not perfect, but far better than anything else that we have used! 2115|RVFQ2DYBU76IA;2115|R2FYFV2KOHYMXH;2115|R1K43AGC4MF0YP;
