Hamilton Beach 50200 BlendMaster Work Top Blender Recommendations

With a 350-watt motor offering 10 speeds plus pulse control, this versatile blender does everything but mow the lawn. Can it crush ice? Certainly, and it'll blend smooth frozen drinks like smoothies and margaritas. Will it chop nuts? No problem, and coffee beans, chocolate, and vegetables (in water) come out at whatever consistency desired, as well. Does it pur?e baby food? Naturally, and when lumps disfigure gravy, punch the pur?e button and they'll disappear. Shredding cheese, making bread crumbs, blending hummus and chocolate mousse--all these and many, many more tasks are right up the blender's alley.
