Need advice for a blender

What cha got?

Got a gift card as a wedding present, fiance wants to go shopping, and put me in charge of deciding which blender to get.

She likes Kitchenaid stuff.

Something like this is what I had in mind, but she'd think takes up too much counter space:



Any help? :up:

 

Get a bigger counter.

 

Cook you up some hotdogs when you fire that bad boy up.

 

i have this one

http://www.shoposter.com/product_detail.asp?T1=OST+4127&.

its loud, but works great!!! plenty of power to crush ice with no problem. or anything else.

 

Loud isn't bad. How is it to clean?

 

Blender? Pshaw...Get a stainless steel trash can and a concussion grenade...

i have the same one.. i got it before college about 7 years ago, lasted all thru college (used a lot). and still works great today. Its heavy, Loud, and no frills, pulse, blend, off.. but it does exactly what you want.. blend. Comes with a nice glass mixing pitcher nad comes apart easy to clean.. just unscrew the bottom, remove a rubber gasket, take out blade, rinse, repeat.

 

Vita-Mix 5000. Anything else is bringing a knife to a gun fight.

Steve,

Quit with the girlie drinks and you won't need one. It's not that hard to mix bourbon on ice.

Put the $ toward tires!!!

When is the wedding and when are we going to see you at the track again?

Ben.

 

Trash can fulla ice and a Stihl chainsaw. Rock on, dude!

 

22 days.... first scheduled track ride is RRR at the end of August. If I can pull off a mid-july event I will.

Things that need to happen before I get on the bike: New job, new house, new transmission (in that order)

 

You know she's a good one when...
OK, she's an ex-girlfriend now, but one day I hear a shreik from the kitchen and ran in to see why. She says, I turned the blender on, and after a few seconds it went into a wicked tank-slapper and almost went off the counter! Made me smile...

 

Hey- if it makes my nads come apart I'm steering clear of this one!

 

I use my blender for mixing 2 stroke fuel.
