abunda_amazon_reviews This is a premium blender, and I feel that you’re somewhat paying for the namesake here. You’re starting to close in on the entry level Vitamix models, which are more capable, albeit less smart blenders. I used to have a Vitamix, however my ex has that, so I can do some comparisons. The blender is beautiful and looks great on the counter. The carafe is dishwasher safe while the lid is top rack safe. It comes with an auto-clean mode, where they recommend running two cups of warm water through the blender for it’s 60 second duration. For tough cleanings, they say to add a couple drops of dish detergent. In contrast, this is the standard cleaning for a Vitamix, couple drops of dish detergent, and run it on speed 10 for a bit. Which of course you don’t want to be anywhere near because it’s loud, and I mean loud. The Breville on the highest setting is loud, but isn’t at the level of the Vitamix. It will still wake the house if you’re utilizing the Smoothie settings. It tends to walk on the countertop, at least when using the smoothie setting. Just something to be aware of if you’re placing near the edge. The feet appear to be suction cups, but if they are, they’re not effective. As I mentioned in the opening, this is closing in on Vitamix pricing for their new bottom of the line model. That model can make peanut butter, which is big for me. I do not think the Breville would do that. It probably has the power, but the blade design coupled with the cup design I don’t think it would churn it to do so. There is no mention in any of the literature of making hot soups with this as the Vitamix can do. Not that we used that functionality often with the Vitamix but I did make some killer butternut squash soup just by putting everything in the Vitamix and letting it go for the required 6-7 minutes. All in all, this is a premium blender, I think it will last many years.;;Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2018;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;What it is and what it isn't;;Mmm;;;I purchased this product to replace the discontinued model that I owned for 10 years until an unfortunate moment where I burned up the motor while making hummus. This product does not compare with similarly priced hemisphere model. The jar itself is plastic (not glass as before), does not disassemble (easy to clean -as it did before), and does not have a press and hold burst function (as it did before). Overall, it works as described.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2018;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Not as good as it once was;;C. Reynolds;;;I've never seen, much less used, such a perfect blender - and I've owned several. The design is exceptional. And beautiful. And totally easy to use. I got this for one purpose: to make green smoothies that are packed with greens and other good stuff. Not only does it make a better smoother than a friend's $400 machine (really), it also cleans up more easily. And storage is simple, as the footprint is very modest. I cannot overstate how pleased I am with this purchase. Simply an extraordinary machine. AN UPDATE - 1 year, 6 months after purchase: I remain totally pleased with this superbly designed machine. I've made wonderful mayonnaise with it, and regularly make thick smoothies. In contrast to another reviewer, I find it does NOT move on the counter when in use. The reason I return to update my review is that I just had a 35-minute chat with their customer service department, the phone number for which is prominently displayed on their website. They WANT you to call. When I did, I was offered the option of having them call me back so I would not be stuck on hold. Thank you! I got the callback, and we discussed my problem - a rubber seal between the blade assembly and the blender container had disintegrated and the assembly would no longer turn. After they got purchase information (I had not registered my purchase - so they did it for me on the spot - wow!), and product details, they asked for photos of the problem. I had trouble getting decent photos. Nevermind, I was told, we'll just send you a new blender container - arriving in 7-10 days. What can I say? A quality product, without doubt, and a company that truly wants happy customers. They deserve your business. I assure you that you won't be disappointed!;;Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Far exceeded my expectations!;;Tom Cloyd, MS MA;;;I am so in love with this blender. Put your ingredients in, (nasty woody things like kale and sprouts), push the 'Green Smoothie' button, stand there in awe as it sets the correct time and does your bidding and then shuts itself off. When you're finished pouring your totally silky (as in no lumps!) drink, put 2 cups of warm water along with a 1/2 teaspoon of Dawn in the blender, run it (I use the 'Mix' setting) for about 30 seconds, rinse it and dry it and put it away. It is dishwasher-safe but as it's so easy to self-clean I won't be dishwashering it because I don't want the bright red portion markings to fade. Buy this! Unless you get a defective one, and that happens, I believe you'll be as happy as I am.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;It runs and cleans itself.;;Mary Catherine Todd;;;We have bought an amazing espresso machine and toaster oven made by Breville so were willing to give this a shot. We have had Cuisinart and other blenders that we did not like because they were underpowered or had dull blades. This model was bought for smoothies but we wanted something versatile. It delivered more than we hoped. The blade system (actually several intertwined blades) was sharp and serrated. It spins with a movement that pulls the top material down into the blades and so thoroughly blends. Seems like a simple thing to ask but this is the first blender we've had that delivers. Awesome smoothies because it has a start-stop automatic mode for quickly getting fruit--well--smoothe! In no way underpowered. In fact watch out, it tends to vibrate around if it's on a slippery surface because of the power and start/stop motion. Breville has delivered every time we pick them. Highly recommended.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Best blender we've had because of great and different design;;Patrick;;;Been using this blender for about two weeks now. I make a kicka** smoothie using frozen pineapple, mango, strawberry, spinach, and OJ every morning at 6 and I’ll admit it is kind of loud (bless the neighbors at our complex) but it takes less than 30sec because this is such a strong blender. I’ve always been a fan of Breville products, the lid to my blender is not loose at all. The one down side is I wish it came with a stick/mixer.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Great blender;;piggiesmalls
