Know before you buy
Yes, the attachment comes with a dedicated slicer/shredder disc and a stainless steel chopper blade. It is designed to handle standard food prep tasks like chopping vegetables or shredding cheese with ease.
While the Tritan plastic is durable and BPA-free, it is generally recommended to let hot ingredients cool slightly before blending to prevent pressure buildup. Always ensure the lid is properly vented if blending warm liquids.
The BPA-free Tritan jar, travel cups, and food processor attachments are top-rack dishwasher safe. The base should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and never submerged in water.
The 1 horsepower motor is quite powerful and specifically engineered to crush ice and process frozen ingredients. Using the dedicated 'Ice Crush' pre-programmed setting will provide the best results for consistent textures.
The pre-programmed settings for 'Smoothie' and 'Ice Crush' automatically adjust speed and pulse intervals for optimal results without you needing to monitor the machine. The manual Low, High, and Pulse buttons give you full control over the texture for custom recipes.
Yes, the two included 16oz travel cups are designed to be used directly with the blender base, allowing you to blend your smoothie and take it with you without needing to transfer it to another container.
