When it comes to Mother’s Day, birthdays, and anniversaries, we all agree that small appliances are the ultimate no-no (just like foundation garments, subscriptions to diet coaching programs, and vacuum cleaners). So, we ask you this: What would you do if someone gave you a small appliance for a gift? Ban them from your presence for life? Make them sleep on the couch? Order 80 pizzas to their house? Probably. But not if that small appliance was a Blendtec Designer 725.

In fact, if you were gifted one of these beauties, you just might reward the giver with some extra sugar—of the wink,wink kind. Because this baby is a supercharged blender with a side of awesome. In fact, we’re pretty sure that if you looked up Appliance Porn on Urbandictionary.com, there would be a photo of the Blendtec next to the definition. (We made that up. Don’t do it. You wouldn’t want to mess with our mystique.) Can you hear us bursting into song? We know we’re gushing. It’s just that for so long, we’ve wanted to jump on the juicing bandwagon and now we can. With gusto.

WHY THE BLENDTEC IS OUR APPLIANCE PORN

Blendtec 725 DesignerWe are literally singing the praises of this multi-functional, sleek, super blender because unlike your typical appliances, this one has sex appeal. It boasts the most advanced blending technology ever seen, and after using it for an hour, we are true believers. In all seriousness, how often do you hear a woman wax poetic about an appliance – as a gift? Well, get ready to become a believer, too. Because this is not your regular blender.

This thing makes hot soup. And ice cream. And salad dressing, hummus, dips, and yes, smoothies – fast. Faster than you can say Buy me a Blendtec! Plus, and we’ve saved the best for last, it cleans itself.

They call using this machine an interactive experience (the first time you turn it on, it welcomes you to the family), but we call it something else. Smart. Bossy. In a good way. For example, the SmartBlend technology actually senses and spots potential problems that could interfere with the perfect blend and tells you how to fix them. No more claiming you can’t read directions. And no more chewy smoothies for you.

Blendtec-Twister-JarIt also features fabulosity like:

  • 1725 watt, 3.4 peak horsepower motor

  • Illuminated, capacitive touch interface

  • Preprogrammed cycles: Smoothie, Salsa, Ice Cream, Whole Juice, Hot Soup, Clean

  • 100-speed capacitive touch slider

  • Illuminated counter displays remaining time on blends

  • A unique Twister jar for blending thicker recipes

As if that weren’t enough, it keeps track of how many blends you complete and gives you Blend Rewards Program points you can redeem online for recipe books, gift cards, kitchen utensils, jar discounts and more. What appliance does that? We promise you that using the Blendtec comes close to an out-of-body experience. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving. Happiness, that is. Pure, unadulterated, blended happiness. The gift kind. The kind you deserve.
