Cleanblend ULTRA Low Profile Black Countertop Blender

Blenders are not only capable of creating delicious fruit smoothies, creamy soups and sweet chocolate shakes, but they also work to significantly cut down on the time you spend prepping food. When shopping for a blender, you need to make sure you’re purchasing a high-quality model with a powerful motor. Otherwise, you’re going to be disappointed when you go to use the blender and it can’t even crush ice.

Cleanblend makes a line of blenders that both Forbes and Eater listed among their top blender picks. In fact, both publications pointed out that the Cleanblend blenders were able to decimate berry seeds, leaving behind drinks that were smooth and free of grit.

When it comes to blenders for the home, Cleanblend has two models that are designed to fit neatly on a kitchen counter without touching any upper kitchen cabinets. Both the Cleanblend ULTRA Low Profile Black Countertop Blender and the Cleanblend ULTRA Low Profile Red Countertop Blender have a large 40-ounce capacity for making everything from a single-serve pina colada to a big batch of cream of broccoli soup. The pitchers are even made from a durable BPA-free plastic that won’t crack or break when accidentally dropped.

Thanks to the 1,000-watt motor and eight-blade system that uses food-grade stainless steel blades, the Cleanblend blenders are strong enough to do the job of nine different appliances. Home chefs won’t have any trouble chopping, crushing or pureeing a long list of ingredients when they opt for one of these blenders.

Professional chefs and serious home cooks will want to go with the Cleanblend 1800W Black Commercial Blender, as it has an 1800-watt motor and a 64-ounce pitcher. This high-performance blender comes with a host of speed settings, as well as a pulse button. It can be used to make fresh salsa, creamy vegetable dips and refreshing margaritas.

• If you lose your Cleanblend blender’s product care manual, you’ll find a digital copy is readily available on the company’s website.
• Also on the company’s website is a Smoothie Guide, which you can download for free.
• Never place a Cleanblend blender in a dishwasher or unscrew the bottom of the blender. The company recommends cleaning the blender by placing some water and a drip of dish soap in the blender and blending it on low. Make sure you thoroughly rinse the blender out afterward. You can always wipe down the outside of the blender with a soapy dish rag if needed.
• If your drink recipe calls for ice, you’ll want to add the ice to the blender last.
• You can use your blender for much more than just creating smoothies and shakes. Blenders are also ideal for making pancake mix, homemade pasta sauce, salad dressing, cookie dough and even ice cream.
• Your Cleanblend blender may have a slight burning smell the first few times you use it. This is normal and will go away.
• To protect the blender from overheating, it is programmed to automatically shut off when it gets too hot. If this happens, you’ll want to unplug the blender, wait a few minutes, plug the blender back in and hit the reset button on the back of the blender.
• Cleanblend blenders use a 120-volt outlet that is only designed for use in the United States and Canada.
• Both the Cleanblend ULTRA Low Profile Black Countertop Blender and the Cleanblend ULTRA Low Profile Red Countertop Blender are designed for residential use, and are therefore cheaper than the Cleanblend 1800W Black Commercial Blender, which is commercial-grade.
