Commercial Grade Food Blender Smoothie Hot Soup Maker Ice Crush Heavy Duty

Let me start by saying that I own a blendtec total blender. The reason for purchasing this blender was so I could make smoothies similar to home while I am living in Germany with my partner.This blender is primarily used for blending green smoothies (ingredients include fruit, spinach, hemp seeds, chia seeds, dried goji berries, dried cranberries) - this blender does almost as good of a job as my Blendtec does at home. Blends the seeds nicely and it would be very difficult to tell the difference if you blended the same ingredients using both blenders.The blender itself feels very solid, the jug is great and is very easy to clean.This blender is very simple to use, it has a power switch, a pulse switch and a knob that controls the speed of the blades. The Blendtec has many more features than this blender and a much better interface but the price difference justifies this. The Blendtec has many presets for blending milkshakes, grinding grains, crushing ice, smoothies and soups and has preset times for each mode whereas this blender is very simplistic and is more for blending/pulsing ingredients quickly with no fuss.This blender is definitely great value for money, I will update if I run into any issues as I see some negative reviews stating that it's only "good for a short period of time" however for now it does the job I need it to do and I have had no issues thus far.

I bought this blender in October 2013, cost £299.99. I wanted to save money compared with more expensive blenders (!) and the Enpee looked OK. We have used it very little but it started failing to switch on when operating the on/off switch some time ago but did work if I gave it a hit on the side. I never got round to contacting the suppliers (Enpee). Recently I made some soup and the unit again failed to switch on repeatedly. I managed to get it to work by hitting it on the side again, but it kept stopping. Far too late, I sent an email to Enpee."We bought the Enpee 3HP (attached image) some time ago, but it has been used a handful of times.The motor cuts out or does not start at all unless you hit it on the side (!) then it goes for a bit then stops.It’s very erratic. The reset switch just pushes in with no click. Can anything be done please?"I was told that since the unit was over 3 years old and had been discontinued then nothing could be done.OK it is over 3 years old but truly, it has hardly been used. £300 wasted.....I should have spent more money and got a higher quality, more reliable unit. My eldest son has a Vitamix blender in California, used extensively without problems.

Works well for blended drinks etc. Useless at blending chickpeas for hummus or other dryer foods. Regret spending £200 on this blender.

Was great product a 9 months. Made pumpkin seed butter. But suddenly stopped, with a burnt transister smell. Motor maybe good but probably chesp electronics inside. Sad. Won't buy it again. I guess you get what you pay for in the end. Looked identical to more expensive models from the outside. Oh well.

One day searching for something I can't remember what I came across The vitamix Lady demonstrating a blender on YouTube; I watched the video through and was very impressed so I searched out the price of this vitamix machine, 500 plus quid for a blender! I don't think so. I then looked for the best price and came across Vitamix V Blentec blender comparison, I concluded from that the Vitamix was the superior machine and not much more expensive than the Blentec; So ok these things are overpriced so lets forget it, no lets give it one more go try amazon with " commercial grade blender " and thats how I came to purchase the Enpee Blender. I looked at the Enpee, looks like a Vitamix, more powerful than a Vitamix, Cheaper by far than a Vitamix, does't require a separate dry container like a vitamix has great reviews, so lets go for it. So I've had this machine a couple of weeks now and whats not to like about it, well made, powerful, simple to use; trust me if you want a great blender this is the dogs do dars, I love it you will too. After owning a few months I can convey some issues I have with this product, firstly I will say I'm still happy with the blending and my issues are with the jugs; the large jug when blending with ice or frozen fruit the blade can and has come loose a problem if you are not a practical person with the required tools to tighten. next the small jug, here the lid does not fit deep enough into the jug to block off the pouring spout allowing leaking at high revs, second using boiling water to make soup or coffee to make bulletproof coffee tends to melt the grease in the blade bearing this may cause failure later.
