Second Chance KitchenAid Artisan K400 5KSB4026EAC Almond Cream

I was allowed to test the blender in collaboration with Kitchenaid.

The blender comes with a 1.4 liter glass mixing cup and matching lid. What immediately stands out is the stylish design and weight. The blender immediately feels very stable and strong.

After a week I have 2 small mixing cups of 200 ml. purchased. These smaller variants are ideal for making baby food or sauces and come with their own blade system and lid so that they can be stored in the fridge.

Do you want to make healthy smoothies with frozen fruits, ginger or spinach, crush cookies for desserts, crush ice for cocktails or puree soups? The blender can do it all with 5 speeds, the pulse option and 3 preset programs: crush ice, ice drinks & smoothies. In addition, the blender has a self-cleaning cycle. You pour some detergent and water into the mixing cup and cleaning is automatic. The mixing cup and accessories can also simply go in the dishwasher. So very handy!

To prevent spillage, the blender also has a soft-start function and starts briefly at a low speed before the set program starts.

In any case, the blender passed my tests of homemade nut butter, baby food, soups, desserts & cocktails, sauces and healthy smoothies.

Downsides? They don't really exist for me! Yes, you hear the blender, especially with recipes that contain a lot of ice. However, this is certainly not annoying or disturbing, but that is of course personal.

If you're looking for a powerful and stylish blender, I definitely recommend this one.
