The KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender (Model No. KSB5GR4) moved into our kitchen a year ago, replacing an old Oster blender. After a year of use, the KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender has established itself as a great value home appliance. All I need to do is mix it up and it works fine.
(Note to vacuum cleaner: Take a hint from this blender, will you?)
One feature that is most desirable in the KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender is its sleek design. With the old blender, cleaning was a nightmare. Snakes and cracks around the mixing jar and between the push buttons required a q-tip navigation. The KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender, on the other hand, has no corners or cracks. The touch pad is electronic, off, and the speed selects are flat, so one quick wipe style cleaning. Just my quick fix.
One feature that initially gave us pause with the KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender was the number of speeds. Our mixer once had a gazillion. Well, maybe more than 18, but no matter how many there were, I was never sure what to do with them all and usually used the same 3 or 4. The idea of living with a blender only with 5 speeds, however, suddenly moved. I wonder if five speeds would be enough. Do we need these?
Stir, Chop, Blend, Puree, Liquefy. Those are the five speeds the KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender offers. There is also a pulse feature that can be moved to any number of speeds. I used this mixture of walnuts, garlic cloves, and hard cheese to make a paste to grate ice cubes< /a> instead of frozen mahogany, and exchange fresh fruit for ground. It also flatters the fan on the KitchenAid 5 Volo Ultra Power Blender. I have never wished for another speed. Five seem to do all they need.
The KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender is designed with a glass container for efficiency. It is strong and has minimal ridges, which makes it easy to clean. It is wide at the top and has a round shed. The manufacturer sells this dripper to provide free pouring of sebum. And how much it makes public! The rubber lid for the mixing bottle fits securely inside the top of the barrel. Twist the two-inch mixed cap into place on the lid. It can be removed by adding additional ingredients to the mixture.
The 4 mixing plates of the KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender are on four different levels for good mixing. I’m telling you no one here has done it, why it works, but it does.
The KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender carries a full one-year warranty. It also comes with an instruction manual filled with mixing tips and recipes. The basic blender comes in a variety of colors and base materials. The most expensive is the stainless metal finish at $179. Other color selections run for $99-$129.
Is it recommended? Unmerited. The KitchenAid 5 Speed Ultra Power Blender is a great blender.
