Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Hamilton Beach 52654 Blender/Food Processor Combo
Customer Review: Works well but did not make me happy
Summary: 3 Stars
I have used blenders in the kitchen for decades. Having left my blender on the wrong coast, I grabbed this to continue my cooking and blending. My first comment on this is that it works. Chops ice to liquid in no time. The chopper is nice. If you want to simply blend shakes or simply chop, this is a workable tool. I use it every single day.
Now let me say that I am usually happy with my kitchen tools and I am NOT happy with this blender. First there is no low speed on it. Even the lowest speed at low is too fast for some cooking jobs. It just hacks and spits.
The blender also has a tendency to spray contents at random moments on the lid, out of the lid if you peek, or out of the top, and if you go to add something while it blends, invariable that is when it launches the bulk of what is inside the blender into the air. It is quite annoying that it does this.
Having used a great number of blenders, I was not expecting that you could not use it to prepare things while it runs.
I do not really like the way the bottom is set up. The reverse lip on the bottom bothers me and has led to some leaking. It has to be screwed on hard.
The designers never washed a dish in their lives. The design of an implement that regularly is covered with food (as this one insures it will be by its performance) should be easy to clean with few crannies for food to get into. This blender is a mess and gets everything all over it and takes special care to clean well.
As I said. It works very well otherwise. I will give it away and get something else when I get the chance.
