KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender KSB560

Maxell’s Encore EN-5 offer a rich, full sound for an affordable price, beating out nearly all of the headphones in the test. However, our testers didn’t think they were very comfortable, nor did this pair do a good job staying put during use....

nbsp ; Excellent sound quality ; Adjustable ; Can withstand multiple drops ; Water-resistant ; Light weight and wraps up tightly for easy portability

nbsp ; Didn’t take much force to remove the headphones during our force test ; Consumer testers didn’t find them very comfortable to wear for long periods of time ; Didn’t always stay put during use for our consumer testers

KitchenAid KSB560 Review (blender) - Blenders & Juicers

Very disappointing service life from an blender in this price range. Jar had a lot of vibration when blending milk shake consistency material. Might be OK for light and infrequent use, but daily smoothie was just too much for the motor.

Great blending action. Really fine consistency on smoothies and drinks. Easy pouring and maintenance with one piece jar

When set in ice crushing mode (pulsed) the lid came loose and danced around in 360 degree orbit

KitchenAid KSB560 Review (blender) - Blenders & Juicers

Good value for the money, I had an oster which was cheaper but louder, terrible design, this is simple and too the point.

not noisey, good design, easy to put on and off, several speeds, senses before it starts

nothing bad about it

Very nice

took an egg off for loooonnnggg shipping paid for 3 day shipping and it came in 9 days... I think it is more cook.com's fault rather than neweggs though

Very nice and sturdy. My wife is in love with them and her new kitchen aid mixer

Very nice mixing bowl.

The mixing bowl is well made. Thick glass was used to make it. We should get years of use out of it. Delivery time was fast. Only about three days to arrive.

You can see the ingredients mix together.

I bought this as a gift. They love it and other friends who have this bowl also love it. It is great that is comes with a cover.

A Great 5-Speed Mixer from Kitchenaid

I decided to buy a new KitchenAid mixer because a beater connector for the mixer I owned was making a whining noise when it was running and didn\'t want to risk having the mixer go Pffft! in the middle of baking without having another mixer on hand....

A great addition!

I wanted an additional bowl for my mixer so that I wouldn't have to stop and wash when making multiple items. I thought it would be nice to get a glass bowl to complement the metal bowl that came with the mixer. Great choice! It's nice to be able to...
