ANATOMY OF A BLENDER FORGET THE WRIST WORKOUT Blendtec's extra-strong jar material is exceptionally light. So the only thing you need to worry about lifting is your next delicious blend. HARD CARBON BRUSHES You didn't know that motors have brushes, did you? They do. And they can wear out quickly. Unless they're made of electrographitic carbon, like in a Blendtec blender. Then they'll last a very, very long time. STAINLESS STEEL THE PROFESSIONAL'S CHOICE Blendtec's ultra-hard stainless steel blades are cold-forged and tuned for heavy use. This allows them to be stronger and resist corrosion much better than lesser blades. SINGLE BLADE, MANY ADVANTAGES Blendtec's patented vertical wingtips and precision angles are engineered for ultimate efficiency. The distinct single-blade design allows your ingredients to fall easily in front of the blades. THE FIGHT AGAINST FRICTION Friction is the nemesis of all high-powered equipment. Ball bearings reduce friction so you can blend faster and quieter. It's all surrounded by a rubber mount that absorbs the shock produced by blending ice and frozen fruit. POWER FOR THE PEOPLE The most powerful motor available for home blenders is at the heart of your Blendtec experience. More power means easier blending of the most stubborn ingredients. SAFETY MATTERS Be assured that even a blender as powerful as a Blendtec blender is ETL certified, which means it meets national safety standards. DOES YOUR BLENDERHAVE A BRAIN? Most blenders are dumb. It's pretty much "go" and "stop," with a few speeds in between. But a Blendtec looks after itself monitoring everything from speed to operating temperature to motor safety. All while ?flawlessly executing pre-programmed blend cycles. NO DETAIL TOO SMALL Even the smallest parts in a Blendtec product have received big attention from our engineers. Blade assembly nut Round and smooth for easy cleaningandpermanently attached at the factory adding to jar safety. Bearing assembly Sonically welded into the jar for extra strength and durability.
