Hamilton Beach Commercial Blender Review

There is not one Hamilton Beach commercial blender, but several. Of these, a few of the most popular models are the Tempest (HBH650), the Summit (HBH850) and the HBF400 food blender. The first two are designed specifically to blend smoothies and other beverages, while the third is focused on the successful blending of food in a commercial context.

With each of these blenders comes Hamilton Beach's name and reputation. Some individuals and businesses will not buy anything except Hamilton Beach commercial blender, because the name signifies so much in terms of reliability and longevity of the blender. If you're looking for a good commercial blender, Hamilton Beach probably has something to offer you.

Features

Both the Tempest and the Summit versions of the Hamilton Beach commercial blender offer wave action, which means that the blades are designed to make sure everything in the blender is blended smoothly and consistently. In addition, they both offer a 3 hp motor and a 1.9 liter stackable plastic blending jar.

The difference between these two models is that the Summit has the added feature of an automatic shut-off. This blender can actually gauge when a drink is done and stop, so nothing gets blended too far.

The HBH400 is made to blend food precisely. You have a lot of control over the 1 hp motor. It will blend, mix, chop, and puree without any problems. This commercial blender also offers automatic shut-off, so nothing is blended beyond where you want it to be.

Advantages

Both the Tempest and the Summit are known for their smooth drinks and for the wave technology that allows that to happen. If you're looking for a Hamilton Beach commercial blender that will make all of your smoothies consistent, either of these models will work for you.

In addition, the automatic shutoff of the Summit and the HBH400 can save you a lot of trouble. With this feature, these blenders take some of the guesswork out of blending and allow you more time to do other things in the kitchen.

The power of these commercial blenders also cannot be beat. These motors are competitive with other blenders in their class, but are known for working more efficiently and more powerfully than some of their competitors.

Disadvantages

The Hamilton commercial blender is known for being loud during operation. While this is true of most blenders with this much power, some consumers say that Hamilton Beach blenders are louder than others. Though the company has made an effort to shield the motor, it can still raise quite a racket.

These blenders are also quite expensive. Again, that is not out of the ordinary for a commercial smoothie, bar, or food blender. However, customers who are not sure if they need as much power as these blenders offer may find themselves better off testing one before they purchase it or buying a cheaper blender to upgrade if necessary.

Consumer Reviews

Summary

Whether you need a Hamilton Beach commercial blender for smoothies or food, one of these should be right for you. As long as you're sure you'll use the power and need more than the standard kitchen blender to achieve your goals, these blenders are worth every penny.

If you're not sure how much power you need, you may be better off purchasing a Hamilton Beach kitchen blender and upgrading later if you find it necessary.
