Yes, yes it does blend. - Blendtec Home TB-621-BHM The Professional’s Choice 1,500-Watt Total Blender, Black
This blender really will blend just about anything to whatever consistency you might desire. In my case I use it mostly for beverages, making smoothies from powdered and fresh ingredients. The preprogrammed buttons are handy, but you will find from time to time you may have to use `Pulse’. The blender is loud, though no more so than the one it replaced, a 70’s vintage Hamilton Beech. Clearly you’re not going to keep a conversation going or be able to hear a TV/Radio while this is running. If you’ve ever visted Jamba Juice or Starbucks you’ve heard Blendtec’s commercial blenders at work, this blender is basically a consumer version of those blenders. Cleaning is easy as the carafe is one piece. You will have to fully clean the sides as the rapid mixing action slings the contents over the entire inside surface. I have yet to have it not blend everything I toss in it, even things one might not think of. And as one might imagine, you just have to try SOMETHING off the wall considering their `Will it Blend’ ads. In my case, I gave it the easy chore of making a smoothie out of a hamburger, which it did with ease once the burger patty and buns had enough time in the blades. I did have to add some additional ketchup, mayo and cheese sauce to get the liquid level high enough do make more than a mashed paste but then what do you expect from a mere hamburger. : )
