Welcome summer with this blender which is ideal for smoothies, shakes & icy drinks. Adding some versatility to my entertaining with this powerful and durable blender is a must. The Hamilton Beach Wave~Action® Blender easily makes smoothies or shakes, and it’s also great for making soups, sauces, or salsa. Even AM needs for eggs blended and batter is a breeze. With such cleaver features as an easy-pour spout that eliminates drips. The stir spoon is a wonder for thicker foods & mixtures. 700 watt peak-power motor and the Wave~Action® system pulls mixture into the blades for smooth results. Cleaning is quick and easy even with the 48 ounce glass jar.
