Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Enjoy a frozen drink, crush enough ice for a crowd, and prepare hors d'oeuvres for a party with the Cuisinart® SmartPower Duet™ Blender/Food Processor. Seven speeds, one just for ice crushing and one for food processing, make this Blender/Food Processor a powerful kitchen helper. The smart choice for everyday home cooks and chefs extraordinaire!

Discount Shopping Review:
Two powerful kitchen appliances have been brought together in this blender/food processor by Cuisinart. The heavy-duty motor base is up to both blending and processing tasks, and won't "walk" on the counter, even when it's crushing ice. Use the blender with its dripless pour spout to make and serve 40 ounces of frozen drinks or to purée baby foods or soups; use the processor to prep up to 3 cups of vegetables, cheeses, nuts, and meats. With one motor base, it's simple to keep the blender out on the counter and then bring out the processor attachment for special tasks.

This is an amazingly sturdy product, with tight-fitting lids, a heavy glass blender jar, and a motor that chops meat or ice with equal aplomb. Most attachments are dishwasher-safe, and the flat touch pad, which has seven settings (including ice crush and pulse), is easily wiped down with a sponge. This dual appliance comes with a booklet that explains how to use all the features and lists 48 recipes, from cranberry-orange mimosas to classic mayonnaise. --Maria Dolan

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Noisy - does not make good chutney
Here's a couple things off the bat:

I use this blender for heavy Indian cooking and I will compare it's performance to my Aunt's 30-year old glass-jar blender (Osterizer) that she still users every two days.

1. This it is noisy. Very noisy. At the food processor setting / puree you can't hear squat within 20 feet of this thing.
- The 30-year old Osterizer is incredibly quiet in comparison.

2. This thing does not make good chutney. No matter what jar ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good Blender, but gear broke within 2 months
I bought this blender after comparing multiple options for a reasonably priced blender. As others have stated, the blender performance is great. I used it primarily for preparing protein shakes. It crushed the ice well and blended the ingredients into a smooth shake. Unfortunately, the gear for the blade broke in just 2 months after purchasing the product. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. The product is a good one if you can avoid what appears to be a common issue with this blender.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - loud, bulky, and cheap
I bought this 6 months ago. I am already looking online for replacement parts because the base to the blade cracked rendering the blender useless. It is so loud, I have to plug my ears and it scares my kids. The food prossesor purees everything to a pulp, even when you pulse it just a few times. The glass blender is heavy, akward, and drips all over when you pour. I paid 80$ for this at a department store, lucky it was a gift card. For a Cuisinart, I thought this would be quality. Keep looking.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Nice looks but ...
I got this blender as a Christmas gift 1 1/2 years ago. It looked very nice and the glass jar and base were sturdy. I used it mainly for smoothies (and Margaritas over the summer; used the food processor part just a couple of times). However, I noticed that just after a few uses, it began struggling, to the point that I was adding one fruit at a time or one or two ice cubes at a time, not to bog down the motor which seemed to be in CHF. Recently, it just died ...

Now, I am in the market ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Love It Until The Motor Dies
We received this blender for our wedding, and used it for blending smoothies and crushing ice for drinks. We loved it until the motor quit suddenly within the first year. The store was kind enough to replace it, and we loved our second one for almost six months, when it died. We exchanged it again, but it also died within a year. We just celebrated our third anniversary, and have gone through three SmartPower Duets in that time. I know, it sounds like we abuse the blender, ask it to blend rocks, beat it ... Read More
