| 198 of 200 people found the following review helpful  The Leak Problem, By This review is from: KitchenAid KSB580CR Custom Metallic 5-Speed Blender, Chrome (Kitchen)  UPDATED AT BOTTOM! I have owned a lot of blenders and this one is very impressive. I was tempted to give it 4 stars as it is not the best blender I have ever owned. That distinction goes to the Vita-Mix which has a nuclear reactor for a base, sounds like a Harley and cost as much as a microwave but if you need a blender that can crush anything and make flour and HOT soup....well....but back to the KitchenAid. My spouse could not get over the price though and demanded it be returned. The KA looks great. As a home chef, having a sleek modern looking kitchen is important. Second it is easy to clean... I will never own a push button (i.e. old Oster-type) blender again. Nor one with a multi piece jar. One leak can and has ruined an evening or party, as you run to grab paper towel and dish clothes to control the margarita or soup that is running across your counter and down your cabinets. Then the fun of cleaning your blender nooks...

We replaced an inexpensive Oster with it and like this KitchenAid much, much more. Things I really like:1) Power - this blender whips through hard-frozen fruit like nothing is there for wonderful smoothies. 2) Smooth, one piece control panel - makes for super-easy clean-up as there are no cracks or crevices to trap spills. Yet, the buttons behind the panel still have a nice tactile click response so you know you pressed one. 3) Brushed nickel finish - very attractive on your counter. 4) Polycarbonate jar - this worried me when considering this purchase as our old blender had a nice, thick glass jar. But, after using this blender for 3 months, I like this jar better. It is thick, yet lightweight, and hasn't scratched (although I only use rubber or silicone spatulas inside any way). 5) One piece blades & jar - our old blender had a screw-off base, resulting in 4 parts for clean-up - the base, the blade...

Out of the box, the pitcher had a small leak, so a thin line of blended goodness and maybe a touch of oil were getting slung around the inside of the base of the pitcher (where the pitcher fits over the base). SOLUTION: Call KitchenAid Customer Service and voila, they are shipping me a new one (they said keep the old, leaky one--I may try to fix it). Now THAT is what I call great customer service. There is some confusion as to the Watts (power) that this thing has: 120V x 6A = 720 Watts (the base simply says 120V, 6A motor) but 0.9hp * 746W/hp = 671 Watts (the advertised spec on the KitchenAid site has 0.9hp) or 650 Watts (according to JC Penny) Let's call it 700 Watts and move...
