We got our blender just over three years ago and have loved it. We had a KitchenAid we'd purchased here for $80 that finally died after six years and we used it enough that we wanted to upgrade with our next one. After doing a bunch of research, we settled on the Cleanblend 3HP (the KitchenAid was 0.9HP). It had the features we wanted: high-powered motor, all metal drive for durability, 64-oz jar, long warranty. And it was at the edge of affordable; there's a huge jump between the blenders in the mid-range price tier like this one and the high-end, nearly 100%.
I remember getting it and it felt like it should cost twice as much as our KitchenAid. It was heavier, the controls had a nice weight to them, and it was obviously well constructed. It was solid. It's been excellent, handled everything we've thrown at it, and I am positive we made the right choice. I took one star off the blending power because I think it's a valid criticism that the *low* power doesn't get low enough. But I don't think you can get a blender that at high power does a better job than this with things like nuts and berry seeds.
However... after three years, the motor died. It started throwing our 20 amp breaker occasionally (tried on multiple circuits) and degraded quickly over two weeks to the point that if we turned it on, the breaker flipped. So I had to take a step I always dread: contact a company about a warranty issue. Cleanblend's policy is pretty simple: everything is covered by a five year warranty and if you have a problem, just send an e-mail (which I prefer over phone calls anyway). I sent my e-mail and someone quickly got back to me. I had two interactions: the first confirming the details of the problem I was having and the second to get my shipping info. I had my replacement blender in less than a week from first e-mailing support. There simply isn't a smoother consumer support process (maybe Apple). The customer support rep of course said that "Cleanblend has a very low defect rate", but I believe them: you can't have a process that easy and still make money if this happens a lot. I'm confident that our replacement will last even longer.
Before contacting customer support, I prepared for the possibility of having to buy a new blender. Glancing at The Wirecutter, it looked like the research I did three years ago is still valid. The Vitamix is still the best, but for over twice the price you're only getting a somewhat longer warranty and a wider variation of speeds (feathering pulse isn't as effective, but I can live with it). I might have gone for the Oster, but... I probably would have just gotten another Cleanblend and gambled that the new one lasted longer. It's been a great blender. Luckily, that was all wasted effort. If the replacement dies in two years, I'll get a new one no question, knowing that I won't have to think about it again for at least five years. But I expect it to last quite a bit longer than that. And that's a large part of why I spend more on a product: I put a lot of research in to what I buy and once I've made my choice, I don't want to have to think about it for a long time.
If you're taking the time to read all of this, then you're in one of two camps: you're debating whether it's worth it to spend this much on a blender versus just getting something cheaper or you're debating whether you want to spend more on a top-end blender versus saving some money and getting this. In either case, if you have to think about it, I think the answer is easy: just get the Cleanblend. It is more than worth the price.

Good, but has issues.
I own a busy smoothie bar and was in need of a new blender. I have been using Hamilton Beach commercial bar blenders for 20 years. I figured that I would try something new. Vitamix is way overpriced in my opinion,since this one had good reviews I ordered one. It has a couple of inherent design flaws. Most importantly is that the directions tell you to start the blender on the lowest setting. Well most of the time, this thing doesn't have the power on the lowest setting to start the blade spinning through the ice and blender contents. It tries to spin but the motor makes a stuck noise and you smell the electronics within burning. This happens 95% of the time. I try to remember to turn it up a little before starting but when you are super busy, it's hard to remember. The motor already sounds different than it did out of the box. Started to make a whistling noise. I make 100 plus smoothies a day. I don't think this thing is going to last with the motor stalling the way it does at start up. I have owned this just over a month and now it is dripping black goo after making a smoothie. It's pretty embarrassing when a customer sees this black goo drip on the counter while pouring their drink. When my other blenders start to drip out of the blade assembly, I simply install a new blade assembly and it is good for several months. This one you can't service the blade assembly. It is sealed. I sanitize the blender every day and wipe out the gear area. I don't know why it drip black sh#t out. I will contact customer service after I finish this. I will update my review if customer service fixes my issues. ThanksUPDATE July 19, 2023***** I have owned this blender for just over a year. The motor is still working fine. It powers through 100+ smoothies a day. The main problem is the blade assembly. It starts to leak black goo that drips onto the counter as we are pouring the customers drink. This would be an easy fix with a replaceable blade assembly. The company does not sell one. You would have to buy a whole new container. They did cover my original container under warranty and they said that they will warranty the replacement container. This is a solid company that stands behind their product, and for that, I am very grateful. I am going to buy another one of these for another location. Thanks.
