Waring MX1200XTXP X-Prep 3 1/2 hp Commercial Blender with Adjustable Speed / Paddle Switches and 48 oz. Copolyester Container - 120V

More power than we had expected! Handles any combination of ice and fruit to make sorbet or ice cream. easy to clean and durable heavy container.

I am a trained chef and have used both other and waring blenders in the past. I can say without reservation after more than 2 months of every day use with a family who loves protein shakes I love this blender. It is quieter than the vitamix and pulverizes just about anything effortlessly. I have even made cherry ices from freshly cooked cherries and the consistency was smooth and luxurious. And did I say this thing was quiet? Do not ask yourself if you need this model- Waring really is that good. Just do it.

I have had this product for a week. I did quite a bit of research, but as good as the web is, hands-on is obviously much better. First I want to say that buying webstaurantstore was a good experience. Good price, really fast shipping, and very good communication. 5 stars for that. As for the product, it looks & feels very well built. The container has to be held/used to understand how solid it really is. I don't think that I have seen anything like it. I never would have thought I would say this, but I like it better than glass. My son said the same thing. This "small" size container is plenty large enough to make a smoothie for 3. If you need more than that frequently, then you may want to get the larger one. However, it blends Read More

ive had one of these for 10 years! ive used many ,even in commercial setting and this brand is the best. im buying 3 right now for a cafe. get the warranty . this thing is awesome!

really good blender, we did not have the money upfront to buy a commercial vitamix so we settled for this. but honestly this thing has been used and abused, continuing to impress us everyday with the sheer volume it can handle. works just as good as a vitamix

An ok blender not bad but the canister is what does the trick. I would go for a vitamix. But the vitamix containers that we have fit on th this base. So the base works fine but the vitamix container has the perfect blade to really grind things. Also the base has these ruubber/foam looking edges which make it really hard to clean.

really bad experience from this one. We've only gotten it three months ago and we used perhaps a dozen times. last week, it just started going crazy, running at full speed not responding to the dial setting (the dial also came in very flimsy, almost loose). after that fiasco it simply stopped working altogether. really frustrating. Even before it broke I felt like the unit's construction could have been more solid. The speed dial is just so flimsy and poorly designed. I'd recommend looking at something else.

these blenders are monsters, they can pulverize just about anything. we have two in our ice cream section to make shakes and malts. to make a shake from hard, hand dipped ice cream most people recommend letting the ice cream warm up to about 20 degrees before trying to mix into a shake. no wait with these. just add scoops and milk and other ingredients into the hopper, start on slow speed and gradually increase speed to proper thickness. most shakes ready in 30 to 45 seconds. also good for smoothies. we bought two extra canisters for busy times and will more of them and 2 more blenders as our business grows. they are a bit loud at high speed but they are turning over 20000 rpm, does not interfere with our store at all.

This is an excellent blender, and it really get the job done. It is fast, powerful, and very sturdy, with exception of the switches, but haven't had an issue yet!

This blender feels really high quality, and it blends food really quickly. I clean it by "blending" soapy water. The only issue is that the switch feels a little flimsy. However, I haven't had any problems with the switch breaking.

Great blender for a great price. We use this at our juice shop, and have recently purchased another to use at our new cafe. Waring brand can be trusted, which is something to appreciate when it comes to kitchen equipment.

The Waring is a good brand. Your really get value here. Sure you can buy a better and more expensive blender. But for the price you really cant beat this blender. i would recommend it to a medium busy business.

If you do some research you will realize that this is way better than other blenders. more importantly its at half the price and almost double the horsepower. Cleans easily and is a great investment. Only thing I don't like is the orange sticker backing.

I did a huge amount of web research comparing this to the Vitamix and Blendtec competition. Although how the Waring actually gets to 3.5 HP (it doesn't make sense technically as the motor watts aren't high enough to make that math work), it still has more power and speed than the competition for hundreds less ($318 versus $529 for the Vitamix 7500). The "hundreds less" was what allowed my wife to agree to the purchase without risking divorce proceedings. It works beautifully for green smoothies and generally even blends in berry seeds. It's amazingly powerful and will quickly blend even tougher materials. As a point of concern, the blade's bearings do get disturbingly hot pretty quick. Even if you run it with nothing in the jar, the bearing spindle on the bottom of the jar will get hot enough to burn your fingers after only a Read More

I love this blender, I have a nutribullet, and now I had a nutribullet. The Waring Xtreme ,is worth every penny. I made my first smoothie, 10 minutes after opening, fantastic.

this is the ultimate blender right here. The horse power is much higher than the vitamix. the variable speed control maximizes the versatility of this blender.

This blender is great for making specialty drinks and it's multiple speeds are availible for whatever task is at hand! This blender crushes through ice to make your drinks smooth!

I love this blender its does what ever job I want to do and has the flexability of different speeds to mix or blend anything I want.also great for frozen drinks with ice.

Killer blender, gets use multiple times a day, grinds ice for smoothies, margaritas, and protein-shake "ice cream" effortlessly, and you know you're not paying for the advertising of some other brands.
