Our take on the Omcan 48005 Countertop Blender 8 Liter
The Omcan 48005 is a countertop blender built for volume, not for smoothies at home. Its 8-quart (224–287 oz) removable stainless steel jar and 1/2 HP single-speed motor suit batch work like soups, sauces and purées in a small commercial kitchen. The all-stainless body and UL EPH classification point to food-service use. It is a niche machine with few retail listings, so compare any price you find against other 1/2 HP commercial blenders rather than consumer models.
- Large 7–8 quart stainless steel jar handles big batches
- Removable jar is easier to clean than fixed-tank blenders
- All-stainless exterior wipes down and resists dents
- UL EPH Classified for food-service use
- NEMA 5-20P plug matches a 20-amp circuit

Questions and answers
- Is the Omcan 48005 good for home use?
- It can work, but it is sized and priced for commercial batch blending. Most home cooks would be better served by a smaller, multi-speed blender.
- What outlet does it need?
- It has a NEMA 5-20P plug, so it needs a 20-amp, 120-volt circuit. A standard 15-amp kitchen outlet will not accept the plug.
- How much can it blend at once?
- The jar holds 7 to 8 quarts (224–287 oz). With a 1/2 HP single-speed motor, keep thick mixtures below full capacity so the motor is not strained.
- Is the jar dishwasher safe?
- The stainless steel container is removable for cleaning. Hand washing is the safer choice for the jar and blade assembly; check Omcan's manual before putting it in a dishwasher.
- How does it compare with a Vitamix or Blendtec?
- Those are multi-speed blenders with smaller jars and stronger motors for a few liters at a time. The Omcan trades speed control for an 8-quart stainless batch jar.
- What comes in the box?
- Expect the blender base, the removable stainless steel container and lid. Confirm the exact contents with the seller, since listings vary.
