Waring MX1100XT 3.5 HP Commercial Blender with Electronic Keypad and 30 Second Count Down Timer - 64 oz. Polycarbonate Container

I've bought this blender 3 months ago and been using it every day since. I am still amazed at how well this piece of work performs. It makes unbelievably good and tasteful smoothies. I've decided to buy a blender after watching an infomercial about the infamous Health Master blender. Thankfully I did my online homework and read just about all the blender reviews out there. In my mind I had to decide among 3 companies: Waring, Vita Mix or Blendtec. I ended up buying the Waring MX1100XT because of its powerful motor, manufacturing quality, price and modern look. It sure makes a statement on my kitchen counter. The Blendtec seemed ok but also a bit flimsy, smaller and lighter than the Waring. As for the Vita Mix I have no doubt about its good quality but the Waring is more powerful and less expensive, so choosing the Waring was a no brainer. Actually in my mind Waring blenders are as much of good quality (if not better) as Vita Mix blenders however VM focuses way too much on marketing. Marketing (the way VM does it) is very expensive and somehow must be reflected in the price of the blender. Here's one of my preferred green smoothies: 1/2 cup of your preferred yogourt, 1 grapefruit, 2 oranges, 2 apples, a handful of almonds, 2 frozen bananas, 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries, 3 or 4 leaves of kale, 1/2 cup of water, put all that in your blender, blend for 30 seconds at low speed and one minute and half at high speed and feel the life coming inside you while drinking. Happy smoothies to all!
