- Can it crush ice?
- Yes. The stainless steel Total Crush blades and 1000-watt motor are designed for ice and frozen fruit. Use the pulse function for the most even crush.
- Is the jar dishwasher safe?
- The jar, lid and blade assembly are top-rack dishwasher safe. Hand washing the blades is quicker and keeps them sharper longer.
- Can it blend hot soup?
- No. It is not designed for hot liquids, and the plastic jar is not built for heating. Let cooked ingredients cool before blending.
- How many speeds does it have?
- Three speeds plus pulse. There are no preset programs, so you choose the speed and run time yourself.
- Does it come with extra cups or bowls?
- No. It ships with one 64-ounce jar, a lid and the blade assembly. Extra blending cups are sold separately.
- Is it good for nut butter or dough?
- Not really. The motor and plastic jar are tuned for smoothies and ice, not for thick pastes or dough.
