| bluelucia's Full Review: Krups 239 Power X Plus 14-Speed Blender |
I have owned and enjoyed my Krups Power X Plus blender for the past five years. My husband and I registered for and received it as a wedding gift. We frequently use it to mix cocktails, smoothies and milkshakes. I have also had good luck using this blender for creamy concoctions such as hummus and baba ghanoush.
The most remarkable feature of the Krups Power X blender is the ice crusher setting. I have found that other blenders can't handle this task very well and render the ice into inconsistent chunks. The Krups blender pulverizes standard ice cubes into nice, slushy grains -- it's ideal for making a margarita. In addition, the Krups Power X blender has a "power burst" setting if your ingredients get stuck in the bottom of the blender. Vroom!
At first, I was worried about using a glass blender (I'm a klutz) but it's surprisingly sturdy and never retains odors. It's also a snap to clean as all the parts can be easily disassembled. Furthermore, the Krups Power X blender has a handy cord storage area and doesn't take up too much counter space (which is a rarity in my kitchen).
Overall, the Krups Power X blender is perfect for those who like their drinks cool and smooth.
