This review is from: Juiceman Smoothies (Kitchen) Got my Juiceman Blender for Christmas 2002. Crushed some ice with it.. worked very well. I thought, "This is Great!". I was all excited.Next, I try to make some nut butter, following the directions in the booklet to the T. After blending for about 15 seconds, the motor blew. Now I have to send it back, and wait for a new model. Some Christmas gift! I won't be able to use it again until February! Now, why put a recipe for nut butter inside your booklet when the thing obviously can't handle it? The same thing happened with my Juiceman Juicer when I tried to blend a frozen banana. It says it will come out like "Soft-Serve" ice cream, but the motor died. This blender has all the power in the world. It sounded like an airplane taking off when I turned it on high, but the motor gives out way too easily. I would have thought it was a fluke, but after reading others comments, I can see this machine is just poorly made. 24 of 24 people found the following review helpful:  Great for just liquids, mediocre for lots of ice, By JR (USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Juiceman Smoothies (Kitchen) Only blender available under [$] ...if you need to crush and mix large quantities (64 oz) of smoothie type drinks.Motor has poor starting torque and needs some coaxing to get started for a full container of ice and "stuff" I have to shake the container and move the solids at the bottom to help the blades start turning. Motor stalls if just ice or solids are in the blender. Once the motor starts and ingredients starts to liquify, has lots of power to finish the blending. I too like some of the reviewers here had to replace the unit with Salton (parent company). The motor started to smoke on me. They replaced my unit with very little trouble and paid for the shipping both ways. I will keep my unit because it is much larger than a regular blender and will crush ice once the motor starts going. Great blender for just liquids. However it only gets 3 stars from me because I have to baby it. You CANNOT just load stuff in the blender and forget it. You have to watch it...Read more 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful:  Wow! A must-have for smoothie lovers., By "vendorable" (Eugene, OR USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Juiceman Smoothies (Kitchen) This is a knockout product - just got it today. The first thing I did was drop a bunch of full-sized ice cubes in it. In seconds, they were as fine as the finest shaved ice I've ever seen. Let it sit to see if it would leak - not a drop. I then proceeded to make a frozen smoothie - frozen strawberries, frozen orange juice (from an ice cube tray), frozen peaches, frozen pineapple, frozen yogurt, sherbet, small refrigerated yogurt, dab of half and half, and dab of orange juice (plus a little vanilla). In seconds, I had a perfectly blended 32 oz. smoothie.This is the product I should have purchased when I wasted my money on a Krups blender. |
