  • Just stay away from this blender and units that use similar jars.
Size: 2.25 Peak Color: Gunmetal
Cuisinart CBT-1500 This Hurricane Blender is revved and Ready to go. The Professional Power 2, 2.25 Peak Gun Metal I purchased this blender July 11, 2017. And the only reason I would pay that much for a blender (more than it is currently listed) was because I trusted the Cuisinart name. I have other products of theirs that I like really well, but not this blender…more specifically the blender jar. It leaks. The first time it leak and threw black goo all over the undercarriage area. They sent me a new jar because it was still in warranty but hear we are again… leaking from the blade assembly area. Since you can’t take it apart, you can’t get a new seal to fix the problem. You just have to get a whole new jar. Stay away from jars that you cannot disassemble and clean. May be a little more trouble, but at least you have a blender jar that will last. This blender jar is not durable, reliable. Just stay away from this blender and units that use similar jars. Edit May 20, 2019 I have tried to contact Cuisinart 3 times via email (or contact us page) and have not received any response. ... show more

  • Very powerful blender
Size: 3.5 Peak Color: Gunmetal
I've been using this thing for 5 weeks and have a lot of praise for it. I like to make a 930 kcal smoothie nearly every day (nuts/greek yogurt/milk/frozen fruit/veggies/protein powder) which is 1.2L by volume. For the last two years I had been using two cheap blenders (both had small bases, one had a switch that set the blender into on/off/turbo and the other had a bunch of buttons in a row that adjusted speed) that were filled to capacity whenever I made this smoothie and both had a lot of trouble chopping up the frozen fruit. Every time I made this smoothie recipe I would have a lot of trouble blending the nuts/berries into a fine consistency (there would always be lots of bits floating around) and it took long to do. I would spend 5 minutes or more following a procedure I designed after lots of experimentation where I would add ingredients in a certain order, blend in certain patterns, pause to remove air bubbles after adding the spinach etc. With this blender I just throw everything inside, hit two buttons (smoothie -> start) and it gives me a perfectly smooth meal in 45 seconds. That's kind of incredible. When I was first looking at this blender and trying to find information about it there was hardly anything out there, so this review's going to be all over the place but hopefully it answers some questions people might have. JAR/BLADES It's sturdy and fits a *lot* of fluid. If you suspect this blender is oversized for you it's likely not. This machine has a nice sweet spot (aesthetically, lol) when filled around halfway but less or more will work perfectly fine as I've discovered. The blades at the bottom of the jar are not very sharp and you can go in there to clean with a scrubber or paper towel and not get cut. The bluntness is not a problem at all when it comes to blending. I honestly think the ninja brand blenders where the blades are stacked is a horribly stupid design that's not safe, efficient, or useful. I would prefer fewer faster blades rather than many slower spinning ones. You don't need sharp blades or many of them when they are spinning at 10,000 RPM because the sheer force of impact is going to rip stuff apart - and it does, which I will talk about later. The seal at the bottom of the jar is very tight, there is no sign of leakage at all despite daily usage. The inside of the jar has gotten scratched up a lot with use; in fact it looks almost cracked on one corner but isn't.. so it seems to be holding up okay. Overall well designed, tough plastic. Fitting the jar into the base of the blender is not difficult. If the gear isn't aligned just keep trying to sit the jar down while wiggling it a little bit. Easy. LID The lid has three rubber gaskets on it which secures it really well against the top of the jar. One review says it's too tight. I say it's perfect. With a lot of liquids in the jar, immediately spinning up the blender up at 5 speed sends splashes up and if the lid isn't fully secured on the jar it can get knocked off the blender and make a mess. Really the lid is tight to make sure liquid doesn't splash out of the blender. The middle of the lid has a removable plastic cap so you can pour in ingredients without removing the whole lid. This is very well designed - pressure vents are on four sides of the circle (otherwise you might have the cap popping off, which the top reviewer overlooked). On a cleaning cycle with soap and water you can make a lot of bubbles which can overflow the jar. The benefit to having vents on the side of the round lid cap is that the pressure can escape and the soapy bubbles can climb out of the sides of the cap but not off the cap since there's a trench around the cap on top of the lid. It's a good and very thoughtful design touch that I think has been overlooked by every reviewer so far. BASE There are a few presets this blender has. Smoothie works well for smoothie. Soup works well for soup - tried it once for tomato basil and surprisingly it makes a hot very smooth soup. Never trying it again because I'm afraid to wear this thing out. The speed adjustment is a very nice thing to have and is the only reason I got this blender in the first place. The rubber thing that the jar sits atop of is not very flexible. The base overall feels pretty sturdy and its smooth shell is easy to clean. The rubber feet on the bottom are really good at stopping the blender from sliding around, at least on my smooth table surface. BLENDING If you are blending manually and adjusting the speed dial one of the things you will notice is that the speed changes aren't instant. For example if you set the speed to 1 and start blending it will take a second for the blender to ramp up, but afterwards it switches to faster speeds pretty quickly. Dropping speeds using the dial however is not instantaneous... it's a weird behavior. For example, spin it at 7 and turn the dial slowly to 6..5..4..3.. and you will notice that instead of dropping speed to 6, then 5, then 4, the blender ignores you and will just spin at 7 for a couple seconds and then suddenly drop speed to 3. This doesn't really make any difference but has me curious as to what the speed dial is actually doing. The turbo mode though does engage instantly. It scares me. One thing I noticed is that if you are blending something (like a smoothie for instance) and then drop spinach/kale leaves inside, the blender and jar starts to shake and vibrate pretty hard as its processing the soft veggie leaves. This really doesn't matter for anything either since it's never ever going to fall over or move around on the table but is funny to see. Keeps me entertained. This blender is very good at creating a vortex inside the jar. Seriously, impressively good. You won't need a temper for anything remotely soft. Maybe for nut butters, but I haven't tried. In my personal experience with smoothies I can see the liquid being shuttled around the jar in four mini vortexes around the jar (if this makes any sense), and everything has a chance to touch the blades. Stuff sticks to the wall much less than in the cheap blenders I previously had. I know that is a very abstract description but I think whichever team designed the jar and blades did their due diligence. Bubbles are few and far between and can be shaken out. Fineness of smoothies in this blender are incredible. It chops up berries, seeds into nothing, nuts into nothing, veggies into nothing, all super consistent - if you don't want solid bits left in your smoothies then you wont have them. NOISE This blender is really noisy at higher speeds. It can get much louder than the two cheap blenders I have previously used, but then again it is much more powerful. At the same power though I suspect this cuisinart blender is much quieter than the cheap ones I had, but I know that doesn't mean a whole lot to anyone reading. At low speeds the motor hums along at a low frequency and very low volume and the ingredients smacking around in the jar make most of the noise but at high speeds this blender gets fairly high pitched and makes a *lot* of noise. Especially in the soup preset - this thing is nearly unbearable for 7 minutes. Earplugs. The jar lid also really helps with noise, I'd say cutting it down by at least 2x. I would recommend using the lid always. CLEANUP Very easy to just rinse the lid and jar under water to get everything off. ( IF you do it right after use, don't let stuff get crusty) Probably only need to use water & soap and run the 'clean' preset once in a while if you are good about rising immediately after use. I noticed that smells can stick around for a while (basil tomato soup smell stayed for a week after making. pink peppercorn smell stayed for a week. raw egg/honey/milk recipe always stays for a day or two) even if running the cleaning preset with soapy water though. If you make food with strong smells in this blender I suspect the scent will linger inside the jar unless you clean some other way than using the preset on the blender. Does it matter? not to me really. OTHER NOTES I'm impressed with how well this functions (for 300$ it better, right?) and the build quality is excellent. Power cord in the back is low gauge and nice. Does take a couple seconds to wake up from sleep (wake it up by pressing a button or turning the knob). The display is nice and bright and has pretty good resolution to tell you what's going on. I honestly thought this was unnecessary but after getting used to it the layout of the screen makes sense and I don't mind it. The top review complains there is no 'cancel function' button. The big button on the left is the " START / STOP " button, not so hard. ... show more

  • Awesome SMART Blender WORTH Every Penny
Size: 2.25 Peak Color: Gunmetal
I've used this blender almost every day for the last 6 months to grind corn meal, water and dandelion greens. I absolutely love this blender. It senses when the contents have been processed enough to increase speed (which it does gradually), and I've never had an issue with it exploding out the top. The lid has small holes which allow air to escape while you're blending so that the blend is smooth and no vacuum is created. I should have bought this blender first but I didn't because of an Amazon video review which showed leakage out the lid through the air holes. I have never had that problem. Anyone who uses a blender on a regular basis knows better than to overfill the container. The contents being blended in that video are primarily liquid and for that reason (on high) they rise to meet the lid and they spill out. I purchased a different "more powerful" generic brand (for $300) comparable to a Vitamix and returned it because it was not a "smart" blender - didn't sense and adjust it's speed based on how well the contents were processing. It vibrated so much that I had to hold it down on the counter. I purchased this blender to replace a previous Cuisinart that I used for 3 years almost daily until the plastic gears on the bottom were shredded. This blender has a metal gear system (which I know from my research) is essential in a quality blender. Don't be confused about which blender to buy - this one totally out performs every previous blender I've owned and IT DOESN'T BREAK THE BANK!!! ... show more

  • Cuisinart Customer Service is HORRIBLE!
Size: 2.25 Peak Color: White
I use my blender often to make simple green smoothies (3 to 5 days a week) I purchased this appliance in June & after all the reviews I read I thought this was the best one for the money. Unfortunately the blender started making a really high pitch sound when in use. I contacted Cuisinart customer service via email and phone, but never was contacted back. I continue to use my Blender, and just ignored the annoying sound. Then the blender started smoking!!! I am FED UP with this Blender, so I contacted Amazon customer service. They shared that this product had a 3-year warranty and that we needed to contact Cuisinart customer service. We spent almost two hours on the phone trying to get ahold of them. Once we finally got someone on the phone, she said they would send me a shipping label within 3 to 5 days so they could see if they could fix the problem. I have not received anything from them in over a week. And I have just been stuck on hold when I called the customer service number that they gave me to call back if I didn't receive my shipping label. I'M OVER THIS! ... show more
