Equipment expert Adam Ried discusses the top blenders on the market.
Buy our winning mid-priced blender:
UPDATE: Breville recently discontinued our winning midpriced blender, the Hemisphere Control and replaced it with a new blender, the Fresh & Furious. We ordered the new blender and ran it through a battery of tests, comparing it to the Hemisphere throughout, making smoothies, mayonnaise, and almond butter, and crushing ice. We’re pleased to report we like the new model even more than the last.

The Title specifically says "Soup"….I want to hear which is best for soups…:( P L E A S E….
Vitamix hands down. Paid advertisement here.
I love the results from this blender BUT, you don't mention that the contents will spray out the top when starting. I always need to place a towel over the top before pushing even the slow start button. I forgot to the other night and I had pressure cooker pot roast gravy all over my counters and cupboards! Very unhappy!!
what are the other blenders that were tested in the video besides the Breville?
so this dude is a host on America's test kitchen but be having teeth like he's from 18th century Britain
Even the newer fresh and furious isn't available on Amazon 🙁 was hopeing to pick one up for prime day..
I wish this included the higher price to include a base vitamix blender
I don't believe there is still a real vendor in youTube untill I meet dumpsandrew on telegram you are legit bro 💯💯💯💯
No best budget buy??
be great if you could compare https://froothie.co.uk/optimum-9200/ blender against them, as it is 2611w powerful value blender but not sure if its as good as it sounds. please review esp want to know if they last, thanks in advance
So many Wolf wall ovens in the background
How about testing the lower end models? I want to spend less than $50, for a machine with a glass jar that I use only occasionally.
I much prefer the old format rather than this qvc approach
… where is the Vitamix?
Here's a list that helped me out.

In the end, I went with #4.

No vitamix. I'm surprised.
please please please review juicers……………….. there are and overwhelming number of them out there. Where do I invest my dollars. I hate having so many small appliances to store, but I don't want to have to peel, core, cut veg and fruit pre-juicing either. HELP 🙂 Love this channel. Happier 2021!
How about a review on portable ice machines ?????
Not everyone has/wants to spend HUNDREDS of dollars on a blender!! I had a ninja it burnt out in a year; never again…got an Oster 1200 for $99; makes GREAT smoothies still going strong 4 yrs later; I LOVE it!!
Hey dear I want to buy a blender where I can blend juice,dry spice,and it's blender would be good,,so which blender I can buy,can u say the name?
Good informative blender comparison, thanks! The Breville Fresh & Furious is also available in Europe as the Sage Fresh & Furious. Basically the same product but with "Sage" engraved at the front instead of "Breville".
Thanks.
Time to redo the test! Breville decided to discontinue your pick for the winner. :-/ :-/ :-/
Click bait. Title says Best Blenders… then they cap price at $300
I have a Vitamix and think it’s overrated. Not as high performing as I expected. May try Breville.

The
Breville the Hemisphere control does not seem to be sold anymore. We need a new test.
Thank you! Wonderful information. I am watching all your reviews before I buy any kitchen appliances these days!! Bravo!
Don't get confused, vitamix is the final destination
I saw a comparison video of the Breville getting absolutely trounced by a vitamix. Seems like nothing else compares.
Oh this isn't a Lisa video, never mind
So what are the speeds (rpm) on the Breville BBL620 Fresh & Furious Blender?
I have the KitchenAid k150 blender and I love it and I’ve had them all! From oster, vitamix, Hamilton beach, and so on…my first KitchenAid blender purchase and I’ve been using it everyday I don’t even pull out my food processor anymore! And I paid less for my blender then the food processor! Go figure! A good chefs knife can do everything a processor can do! 👍🏽😁
their enthusiasm makes me sick
I have the Breville, a few years old. Light use until I started making daily 1.5-2 L frozen smoothies. Sadly, you guys should have looked up market some more. The Breville is just not powerful enough and it is clearly burning the motor by the rank burning smells it is making. Yours are lasting because you have so many you are distributing the load. I definitely wanted to see comparison with a higher power Blendtec or Vitamix. You could have stratified them and left it to us to decide if I want to spend that much money. Disappointed in your outcome since I KNOW your best choice is not up to snuff, at least in my kitchen.
Turned it off as soon as I heard they put a price cap of $300. So they left out potentially better ones.

"I don't wanna blend my phone" so accourate
