Product Details

KitchenAid Pink 5-Speed Blender, Model KSB560PK

The unique pitcher shape, patented blade and powerful 0.9 horsepower motor provide fast, consistent blending that can crush a pitcher of ice within seconds. In fact, this model is the most powerful premium blender currently available. And you'll get to choose from an array of designer color finishes.

KitchenAid will donate $15 for each pink Blender purchased and registered to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. See information below for details.

Features:

Patented stainless steel blade tines are positioned on four different planes for fast, thorough and consistent blending. Blade assembly is built into pitcher for easy handling and cleanup.
Commercial-quality, steel-reinforced coupler with 12 interlocking teeth provides direct transfer of motor power to the blade.
Built for continual blending. Advanced airflow design keeps blender cool during continued use.
Heavy, die-cast metal base ensures stable, quiet operation when blending. Plus, four rubber feet on wide base provide a nonslip, non-marring grip.
Pitcher contours direct ingredients into the blade for fast, thorough blending.
The 56-ounce one-piece pitcher is made of commercial-grade polycarbonate. It is scratch, stain and shatter-resistant. The handle features a soft inner grip for comfortable, nonslip control.
The pitcher's built-in drain holes eliminate food traps and the need to disassemble - which makes cleaning easier.
The Intelli-Speed� controls and adjusts power to compensate for thicker mixtures.
Automatic Crush Ice Button. Pulses at staggered intervals at an optimal speed to increase blade contact with ice and improve crushing efficiency.
Smooth, seamless control pad wipes clean in an instant.
During 2007, KitchenAid is proud to donate a minimum of $1,000,000 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure in conjunction with its pink product collection. Consumers must register each pink product purchased at cookforthecure.com to generate a donation.

Top ranked blender (without variable speed dial) as rated by Cook's Illustrated. I've had it for three weeks and have used it every single morning to make frozen fruit smoothies. Great build quality, intuitive design and easy to clean. I love this thing.

This is one of the best products I have

Pros:	High quality, Easy to clean, Intuitive controls, Good construction

Was pleased with color of base - actually looks more like golden brushed nickel. Only tried smoothies so far- come out delicious.

Absolutely love it!

Describe Yourself:	Casual Cook
Pros:	Good construction, Easy to clean, Intuitive controls, High quality
Best Uses:	Simple Meals, Gifts, Small Kitchens, Large Kitchens

Old one broke so I researched and bought this one. Now I can compare. Total pros: No cavaties so nothing gets stuck and spills into them. Easy clean up, just rine with warm water and be done. Large sturdy plastic jar (but light) with spout, so no-spill pouring. Large capacity, fits enough for my family of five. Really strong, you really can make snow and have snow cones within seconds right from the ice cubes. So strong it whips everything creamy. No pieces ever. Just flat out great and the best price with ABT on the net.

Awesome so far

By jik from Boston, MA on 11/17/2009.

Describe Yourself:	Avid Cook
Best Uses:	Fruit soups and smoothies
Pros:	High quality, Good construction, Intuitive controls

Bought this blender for my wife, who makes a lot of cold fruit soups. Our old blender, a classic household Osterizer, just wasn't up to the task. This blender on the other hand, liquifies and blends frozen fruit, yogurt, ice cream, ice, etc. quickly and with no trouble. It's a world of difference. We're very pleased!

Excellent blender with a lot of power

Best Uses:	Elaborate Meals, Simple Meals, Small Kitchens, Large Kitchens, Dorm Rooms
Pros:	Good construction, High quality, Easy to clean, Intuitive controls

My previous blender left lumps in the protein shakes I make. This one will take a barely-ripe lemon, difficult to cut with a knife, and turn it into a smoothie! Solid construction with an unbelievably durable polycarbonate pitcher.

I love it!

Describe Yourself:	Casual Cook
Pros:	Easy to clean, Good construction, Intuitive controls, High quality
Best Uses:	Elaborate Meals, Small Kitchens, Large Kitchens, Simple Meals

So far I have mainly used this to made iced cappuccino's and it has been flawless. I make at least 3 a day for the last 3 weeks using standard ice cubes and it shredded it perfect. I've also made smoothies using frozen slices of banana's and strawberries and it goes through them like nothing. The only other was I've used it was to chop pickles to put in a tuna sandhwich meat and it worked great at that too. I just dropped pickles one by one in the hole on top and presto! Got finely chopped pickles! I do have to say I at times have smelled the motor (like a slight burning smell) when initially crushing the ice but I'm slowing starting not smell anything anymore. Maybe it just needed to break in. The motor is loud but how quiet do you really expect a blender to be? It's doing was it was meant to do. So far it was worked great for me and I love it!

Love it

KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender performance

By KV Blues cookin' from San Diego, CA on 04/23/2009.

Describe Yourself:	Avid Cook
Pros:	Easy to clean
Best Uses:	Simple Meals

This blender makes quick work of frozen strawberries and other frozen fruits in smoothies. The frozen fruit is easily pulverized and completely liquified within seconds. Cleanup is a snap with the one piece pitcher. No more removing the blade and gasket to clean up. This is the most powerful blender I have ever used.

Excellent blender

By Mr. Smoothie from Greenwood Lake, NY on 03/18/2009.

Describe Yourself:	Avid Cook
Pros:	Easy to clean
Best Uses:	Large Kitchens
Cons:	Noisy but it's a blender

Needed a blender and saw a review from Cook's Illustrated - the KitchenAid 5 speed was their top pick. Note: there are three different price point versions of this blender, but I found out from the company that they're all the same on the inside (same motor etc.), just different exteriors. I've used this blender 2-3 times/day for the past three weeks primarily for making smoothies with ice, fruit and skim and it works really great. Super easy to clean - just rinse and clean inside with a sponge and soapy water. Very happy so far. A++.

Best blender I've ever owned

By Phoenixsw from Colorado Springs, CO on 01/16/2009.

Describe Yourself:	Avid Cook
Best Uses:	Drinks, Small Kitchen, Cooking
Pros:	Easy To Clean, Precise Control, Stable, Good Pitcher, Powerful

My last blender couldn't make a smoothie unless I was stiring the food in the blender at the same time as blending. I decided after I crushed the 3rd spoon, time for a new blender. This one is great. It's powerful, has a large pitcher so you will always be able to make a large serving, and Ilove the color and the supporting breast cancer research!

Describe Yourself:	Avid Cook
Best Uses:	Crushing Ice, Small Kitchen, Drinks
Pros:	Stable, Easy To Clean, Good Pitcher, Precise Control, Powerful

I love the empire red blender to match my other Kitchen Aid appliances. This blender is the bomb! It is very powerful but can perform any task in a minimal amount of time. The only draw back is the noise - but I have a houseful of 5 kids - so it blends right in for us! Would highly recommend to others - and ABT had the best price anywhere! Thanks for such a great product and super service!

Love this blender

By svm from Evergreen, CO on 07/28/2008.

Describe Yourself:	Casual Cook
Best Uses:	Dorm Room, Cooking, Drinks, Large Kitchen, Small Kitchen
Pros:	Easy To Clean, Precise Control, Stable, Good Pitcher, Powerful

The first thing I made was a smoothy. It crushed the ice, mixed the ingredients all in the blink of an eye. The clean up was a breeze, just put a drop of dish soap in the blender, added a little water, pushed a button, rinsed and I was done. Love it, love it, love it.

Great item

By S from Marysville on 05/6/2008.

Describe Yourself:	Casual Cook
Best Uses:	Drinks
Pros:	Easy To Clean, Powerful, Good Pitcher, Stable

Great blender. Works great, color looks great with my new stainless appliances, and great price. We had a 3 speed Kitchenaid blender and had no problems after several years. This one has a better design and more speeds. Love it!

Works Great

By Mom of 5 from Washington State on 05/6/2008.

Describe Yourself:	Casual Cook
Best Uses:	Drinks
Pros:	Stable, Good Pitcher, Easy To Clean, Powerful

We had a 3 speed Kitchenaid blender and upgraded to the 5 speed because we remodeled our kitchen and wanted a new color. We had zero problems with the old one after several years, and the new one is a better design and works great. This one seems like it will last for years with most of the parts attached now. Less chance of losing the smaller pieces. It looks great too! Great countertop appliance for those with stainless appliances. Fits in perfectly!
