Wed, 3 Oct 2007 11:28:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author goldenpeacock - My husband and I got this blender for our wedding. Every morning we used it to make our breakfast smoothies.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author onawlfours - If you like LOUD and NOISY countertop appliances, this one will be Nirvana. This has got to be the LOUDEST blender on the planet. At first, I thought it was assembled incorrectly and took it all apart and carefully reassembled it with no reduction in...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author some_guy5 - I could almost write two reviews on this blender. We registered for one for our wedding and have been using it for over 7 years. We still use it today. We bought one as a gift for someone else and it broke right away. Well, it broke in a little over...

Cuisinart SPB-7 SmartPower 7-Speed Blender: Very noisy - weak plastic drive sprocket design

Tue, 1 Aug 2006 23:17:40 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author anticom - This blender was bought to make slushy ice drinks. Right out of the box it was unpleasantly noisy. Seemed that this was due to the plastic drive interface between the base and the pitcher. That interface consists of two black plastic pieces with teeth...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author gargo - Very nice looking blender and not a cheap one. I have had it about a year and have not been able to make a good breakfast drink with protein powder and frozen fruit or ice cubes. It doesn't blend good and I get chunks of frozen fruit in it which I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author maxshelby - I bought this blender a few months ago specifically for making frozen drinks and smoothies and also to replace an old Wal-Mart special that fried. I was a worried at first that the Cuisinart might not perform well because it was not an “expensive”...

Cuisinart SPB-7 SmartPower 7-Speed Blender: Best Blender for the buck

Sun, 24 Oct 2004 04:24:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author imcucas - Best blender for the money. It has a nice big bottom, where the blade is, that way it is able to blend better than the skinny models. The big open bottom is similar to the VITA-MIX blender (best blender ever but cost $300+), which helps the liquid...

Sat, 24 Jul 2004 11:06:35 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author commish062 - I bought this unit to replace a 25 year Osterizer that we had received for a wedding gift. This blender turned out to be extremely disappointing in quality and noise level. Due to the shape of the jar, large chunks of fruit get caught under the blades...

Cuisinart SPB-7 SmartPower 7-Speed Blender: A wonderful paperweight, lousy blender

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tuco7777 - Don't buy it . . . looks nice, heavy construction, but doesn't BLEND well at all. Would make a terrific paperweight, though. Why can't somebody make a blender that works? I don't get...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sam604 - i tried everywhere to find out how much power this thing has but no details on it. The only way to find out is to look at the base to see how much watts it has. There are 2 motors available. I was disappointed with my last 300watt philips blender.. when...

Thu, 11 Dec 2003 09:54:01 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author ar_nyc - I chose to purchase a Cuisinart because of its reputation as a quality product - what a mistake! Not only is this blender incredibly LOUD, but it can't even properly blend basic things, like a banana - I threw in a banana with some fruit juice and ran...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mjfdc - This blender looks sexy; that's why we bought it. It has a modern shape and keyboard layout, and ours had a chrome finish applied to the plastic housing. However, in my opinion the engineering leaves a lot to be desired. You have to push two buttons to...
