What I Know About The Blendtec Blender

Do you have a juicer at home?

A: Yes.

Do you use it?

A: No.

Yeah, nobody does. There a pain to clean right!

Well this is a juicer too. But in a juicer what you do is pay a hundred percent for your fruit, take it home, squeeze it out and you might get 25% of your money back. Then you take 75% of YOUR money and all the good stuff and just toss it in the trash. So, a juicer is a horrible investment, but it’s healthy. Cause you get a 95% absorption rate out of the juice. Well, with the speed and power of this machine we take whole fruit and break it down to the cellular level, so you get a 95% absorption rate out of the whole fruit, not just the juice AND its self cleaning when its done.

Do you like smoothies? Well, I’m gonna whip you up a whole fruit smoothie. No juices, just fruits.

But First…

What do you notice missing off the front of this blender that all the other blenders have?

Right, buttons, knobs, dials and switches. You notice we use all digital technology here.

Go a head and press the sauces and dips key for me. Now, with this key you can tell your blender to speed up, and if you want it to slow down you just tell it slow down, or speed up and go faster. See, it’s all voice command. No, I’m just teasin’. It’s all preprogrammed so you don’t even have to tell it what to do, so, its better than voice command. You noticed how it changes speeds all by itself though, right?. I’m gonna show you why it does that.

SMOOTHIE

First, I’m gonna put in some grapes cause grapes are among the best for nutrition.

Next, we’ll put in strawberries. Notice I leave the greens on the strawberries. We’re gonna do that because the greens are high in chlorophyll, a live enzyme that helps boost your immune system.

Then the pineapple. Notice I leave the core on the pineapple. Normally you’d have to take that out cause it’s too tough to chew or to process. Now you’ll be able process all that. We’re also gonna leave the eyes on the pineapple. Do you know why we leave the eyes on the pineapple? So they can see what’s about to happen to them in the blender. No, I’m just teasin’.

Next, are the melons and I’m gonna leave the seeds on the melons. I do that because they are high in fiber. When these seeds are cracked open they provide a natural source of protein. Just like flax seeds. You’ll be able to process flax seeds in here too. That way you won’t have to take citracil and Metamucil when you get older, right.

OK. We’re making a whole fruit smoothie here and you can’t have a whole fruit smoothie without a banana. So, with you’re bananas make sure you take the stickers off of them cause we don’t like to chew on stickers and just toss ‘em in. No, I’m just teasin’. Not even monkeys eat banana peals.

Now lets get some ice. See, in my industry ice is known as blender killer, cause most blenders can’t handle this much ice, let alone the contents inside the jar, right. The more ice you put in a smoothie the thicker the smoothie so I’m gonna load us up. Now, tell me, would you start your blender at home that full with the lid off? Of course not, but that’s what we are going to do here. Go ahead and push the whole juice key for me please. It’s the one right under the green light.

See, right there is where all the other brands would have spray painted the ceilings, but you notice ours starts off slow. It drops all the ingredients into the blade. Then it’s gonna speed up all by itself and create a vortex to pull all the ingredients down into the blade so you don’t have to use any spoons, spatulas, or plungers to assist the blender.

At that speed, we take raw vegetables and actually cook them into a hot soup all from the friction of the blade. See, there’s no heating element, it’s all done by friction. Well, now we’ve got a problem cause smoothies are supposed to be cold and if your house is like my house, your gonna get stuck on the phone for five or ten minutes, or maybe at the door, you don’t want to come back to a warm smoothie, right. See, this is a smart machine. It shuts off automatically when it’s done. You can’t leave any other blender unattended or your gonna come back to a warm smoothie won’t you.

But, you remember all the seeds and stems and ice we had in there right. Look at that, perfectly smooth and consistent all the way through. Tell me though, what’s the worst part about your blender when you get done using it? That’s right, cleaning it out. You’ll notice we have a two blade design that’s welded to the bottom of the jar so you never remove those blades from this jar. Unlike a four blade design that is required to be able to be removed to clean it and then you get those leaky seals and gaskets when you try to put them back together, right. Yeah, we’ve all been there. You don’t have to worry about that with this blender. See, we’re stamped twice by the NSF to be dishwasher safe and self cleaning. Of course, I don’t have a dish washer, so I’m gonna show you how we clean this thing. Just put in about two cups of water and some dish soap, secure your lid, and hold down the pulse key. Sir/Ma’am, do me a favor and hold down the pulse key for me please. The pulse key is going to knock the ingredients of the side of the jar, the blade, and the lid. Do you notice the bubbles coming out the top of the cap? That’s because it’s a pressure relief cap that keeps you from blowing your lid off in the process. OK, you can let go. Thank you. All we need to do now is dump it out, give it a quick rinse, and we’re good to go. So, if you’ve got a lot of friends over, you’re not stuck cleaning between drinks and if you have time just stick it in the dishwasher cause it’s all dishwasher safe.

SOUP

I told you earlier though, that we can take raw vegetables and actually cook them into a hot soup. See there’s no guess work on any buttons, knobs, dials, and switches. You just need to put the lid on and hit the soups key.

Now, the soups key starts off in our highest speed right off the bat, 260 mph, and it’s gonna cook this all by friction. No heating element, it’s all done by friction.

This soup is our south of the border tortilla soup. It’s got three roma tomatoes, a carrot, some onion, cilantro, taco seasoning, chicken bullion, a dab of jalapeño, cheddar cheese, and three cups of water.

That soup is healthier than your regular store bought soups cause it doesn’t contain MSG’s, the high sodium content, or the preservatives of your store bought soups. Not only is this soup healthier for you, but it only takes 90 sec to cook a soup. So, you can actually cook healthy soup just like this faster than you can heat up one can of store bought soup on the stove. You’ll notice on the front of your machine, on the LCD display, there’s a timer that lets you know how much time is left in between cycles. As this soup heats up you’ll start to see the steam vent out of the top of the cap. Again, this acts like a pressure cooker to let the steam vent out so you don’t blow your lid off in the process.

Now, take a look at your hot steamy soup. See, you can’t do that in a regular blender!!!

But, I told you this was a tortilla soup, so, lets throw in some tortilla’s. At home, put in some precooked chicken or vegetables, or maybe some left overs from your fridge. This is a good way to get rid of some of those leftovers. This is how we make a chunky soup. Then just tap your pulse key. This is the same key you’ll use to shred cheeses, grind coffee and make salsa. Now you’ve got a hot, chunky soup.

WARRANTY

Now, the warranty. Your gonna get a three year warranty on every single piece and part of this machine except two parts. Your gonna get a life time warranty on the coupling and a lifetime warranty on the blades inside the jar. But, for buying this here at Costco/Sam’s today you’ll get an additional four years!! That’s seven years on every single piece and part of this machine except for a lifetime on the couplings and a lifetime on the blades inside the jar.

See these couplings, their not glass or plastic like all your other benders. On all your other blenders, when that hard plastic and rubber coupling breaks, cause that’s what it’s made to do is break, most of those blenders you’ll take it and throw it away and go get another one. Some of the other high dollar blenders you’ll have to go out and buy another coupling and have it replaced. This coupling is stainless steele, it doesn’t break.

I’m gonna show you just how smart and durable our blades and couplings are, so, Sir/Ma’am, go ahead and push any grey button on the bottom for me, just push it once you don’t need to hold it down. Now, that’s a tough key but a smart machine. Tell me, what does it say there on the front? Yep, OVERLOAD. Do any of the other blenders say overload? Nope, they say broken and smokin’ don’t they. To remove the overload, press any key and it resets itself. See, there’s a mechanism in there that keeps you from burning up your motor. Now your other high dollar blenders have an overheat switch, so they have to physically get hot before the motor shuts of, but by that time you’ve already damaged the motor right. Not to mention that you have to wait 15 to 20 minutes before you can use your machine again. This one doesn’t do that.

These jars are not glass or plastic. There a polycarbonate, bullet proof material. You won’t break your jar. Lets say your in the kitchen and you drop your jar. See they just bounce for ya. My wife uses hers as a step stool when she wants to reach something in the kitchen. No, I’m just teasin’. Don’t do that at home.

Now, lets get you some of that delicious soup.

ICE CREAM

However, I’ve learned from hard experience that I’d be a horrible host if I cooked you dinner and didn’t give you some cold ice cream for desert. So, I’m gonna show you how we go from hot to cold in less than a minute. I’m gonna start off with some fruit juice concentrate (about 4oz). You can use regular fruit if you want but this is a little cheaper and a little faster. Then we’ll put in some non-fat non-dairy creamer(about 2oz). This is a fat free ice cream, you can make fat free ice cream, sugar-free ice-cream, lactose-free ice cream, no limit. Then we’ll put in some non-fat dried milk(about 1/4cup). You can use whole milk, skim milk, soy milk, you can use any of your milk choices. Then we need a banana and some ice. Now, what key do you think we use to make ice cream. Yep, the ice cream key. We make it pretty tough on you here.

Come on up and push the ice cream key. Now, the ice cream key starts off in our lowest and slowest speed cause that’s where all the torque in the motor is. It uses that to crush up all the ice. Then it speeds up all by itself and pulls everything down into the blade so again you won’t need any spoons spatulas or plungers to assist the blender. When you get that nice shiny star on the top like that you can go ahead and push any button to shut it off early cause you’ve got cold ice cream. See, you just can’t do that in a regular blender!!

CLOSE

Cold ice cream. You can cook hot soups. Whole fruits and vegetable juices. You can shred cheeses, grind coffees, and make salsas. You can even take all your nuts and turn them into nut butters. So for all your nuts in your families you know what to do with them right. No, I’m just teasin’.

Obviously I brought you a quality product, right. Certainly you’d demand a quality price.

Well, let me tell you. In order to replace this blender you’d spend $200 on a grainmill cause we’ll take all your grains, wheat, corn, rice and turn them into flour. 50 sec. It’s all done in the same blade same jar. You don’t need any other attachments.

Then you’d spend another $200 on a juicer. But, remember, juicers spit out all the fiber. Not to mention, they’re a pain to clean when their done.

Then you’d spend another $275 on Kitchen Aids and Cuisinarts with all their attachments, their like an erector set to put together. They do bread dough in 15-20min. We do a 1lb loaf of bread dough in 5min folks! You get the ingredients and the instructions right here in your Lifestyles cookbook that comes with your blender today.

We’ll stop there. Your already up to $700 in three different machines and you still can’t make cold ice cream and cook hot soups. Not to mention you’d still need to get a coffee grinder, a food processor and a professional cooker to try to replace the machine so you’d be well over $1000 to try and replace it and I haven’t even mentioned a blender yet.

Suggested retail on this machine is $599. But here at Costco/Sam’s you can get it for $379.99. It comes with that 4yr extended warranty for a total of 7yrs on every single piece and part except you get the lifetime warranty on the coupling and a lifetime warranty on the blades inside the jar.

Now,  they come in two different colors Black or White. Usually, choosing your color is the toughest decision you have to make.

Their all made here in the U.S., definitely something you don’t hear everyday.

You’ll notice your blender comes standard with a 64oz container. But, that’s the only 64oz container, on any blender, that will fit under your eighteen inch counter top.

All the other jars sit about 4-5in higher. So, you have to take them apart, throw them under the cupboard and ya never use them again. We want you to use this every day.

Your Recipe book comes jam packed with well over three hundred different recipies. Each recipe gives you highly detailed nutritional information. It tells you what ingredients to put in and what button to push. It doesn’t get any easier than that folks. This is the most user friendly machine you’ll own in your kitchen.

You’ll definitely want to take a look at that there are allot of great options in there.

So, what do you think? Do you want a white one or a black one?
