What makes a good Blender?

A good glass blender is actually one of those must-have kitchen appliances, right up there with the toaster and the coffee maker. A glass blender can be used anytime, night or day. Here are some tips to help you.

The blender motor

First of all, the power of the motor is a big factor. Most affordable blenders have little motors, which just are not powerful enough to turn the truly thick or hard stuff you put in there. Sure, they will blend water and banana fine, and you can toss in a few ice cubs as well, but you likely would not be capable to some of the things an excellent blender can do. Try to find blender with a motor size of at least five-hundred watts.

The jug

There are basically 2 types of jugs that come with blenders: plastic and glass. Affordable model will have plastic jug, and more costly blenders will generally have glass ones. When ice is spinning around at warp speed, you do not want it to take some of the plastic off the jug and combine it with your milkshake.

Blender blades

The blades of the blender are actually a vital part of the machine. Some blenders seem to have awful blades that can break off after a while. Standard blenders will say that they have ultra-powerful blades that chop through anything.

Blender drive system

Finally, one of the most vital specs to look for is a metal drive system. The drive system is the part of the base of the jug that links to the base of the blender. Affordable blenders will use plastic, and best ones will use metal. Think about it: with the blades turning around so fast, plastic will tend to wear out after a while, causing the motor to operate, but the blades would not turn rightly anymore. With an all-metal drive system, it would not wear out for an extensive time.
