Waring PBB201 Professional Bar Blender, Quite White

40-ounce, ridged glass jar holds 5 cups of mixed drinks, soup, or saucePowerful 390-watt motor crushes ice fastHigh and low speeds cover mixing, chopping, and pureeingHeavy-duty base; dishwasher-safe glass jar and lidMeasures 16-1/2 by 8 by 7 inches; 1-year warranty, 5-year motor warrantyBandleader and inventor Fred Waring introduced the first blender in 1936, and this model pays tribute to that early version in its retro styling. A tall, old-fashioned-looking blender, it will crush ice and blend frozen fruit beautifully in a few seconds. This blender feels sturdy: the lid, with a cap that doubles as a 1-ounce measurer, fits securely, and the pitcher, made of thick, ridged glass, won’t wobble. Many chefs prefer a blender rather than a food processor for soups and creamy sauces–the blades of a good blender whirl more quickly than those of a food processor and will refine a thin liquid such as cream of tomato soup to an incomparably silky texture. This blender is definitely up to that task. The fixed, self-cleaning stainless-steel blades on the base of the pitcher mean the lid is the only separate part to wash. –Maria Dolan
