Kitchen Aid KSB 560 Blender

The Kitchen Aid KSB 560 is a blender that offers many features of a commercial machine at a much lower price. The 0.9 HP motor provides plenty of power for the most demanding blender jobs, including crushing ice. The large 56 ounce polycarbonate pitcher is dishwasher safe on the bottom rack and the noise level, even when crushing ice is surprisingly quiet. The Blender base is available in thirteen different colors that make matching your kitchen décor easy.

Home smoothie makers who cannot justify the cost of a Vita Mix blender may find that the Kitchen Aid KSB 560 machine makes a good substitute. With a MSRP of 129.99, the machine offers many of the commercial features at a much lower price.

One common complaint with the original design of this particular blender was that over time, the container would begin to leak. The company has now redesigned the container and several reviewers report that by contacting the manufacturer they were supplied with the new container at no charge. However, if consumers must purchase the container, the price is two thirds of the original purchase price paid by most consumers.

Unlike many other blenders designed for home use, this machine can stand up to the test of daily smoothie making. Many of the inexpensive home models simply do not provide the needed power and are reported to burn out in as little as two days. However, reviewers of this particular machine report that it is still going strong after a year of daily use.

When looking for a blender for home that is not as expensive as the Vita Mix, Kitchen Aid offers another option. The blender is powerful enough for daily use yet less expensive than most commercial machines.
