KitchenAid KSB560MC 5-Speed 0.9 HP Stand Blender

KitchenAid Blenders combine outstanding performance, durability, and an easy-to-clean design, this five-speed blender performs everyday kitchen tasks, including mixing up smoothies, pureeing vegetables for soup, crushing ice, and making pesto. The unit's .9 HP motor and Intelli-Speed electronic controls ensure fast, consistent blending. In addition, the appliance offers a solid die-cast metal base with a durable, steel-reinforced coupler and a sharp one-piece stainless-steel blade. The blender's large 56-ounce polycarbonate blend-and-serve pitcher is shatter-resistant, as well as stain- and scratch-resistant. Made of thick, solid walls, the pitcher can withstand extreme temperatures from boiling to freezing, and its lightweight design includes a comfortable soft-grip handle for a secure hold. The one-piece dishwasher-safe pitcher with its patented blade design eliminates food traps and any need to disassemble. Other highlights include an automatic "crush ice" button, a drip-free pour spout, cord storage, and a Clean Touch control pad that wipes clean in an instant. Available in a variety of fashionable colors, the blender measures 7-1/4 by 9 by 15-1/5 inches and carries a one-year hassle-free replacement warranty minimize
