Kenwood Blend Xtract SB055WG: blender specifications and how to properly use + customer reviews

Blenders from the company Kenwood are quite popular. Models of this brand are designed for a variety of purposes - from kneading dough to chopping products.

The bodies of the company's blenders are made of cast aluminum, which makes them strong and durable, as well as resistant to various types of damage. The motor is protected from overloading and overheating.

Most sets are equipped with bowls that do not absorb odors - made of heat-resistant glass.

Kenwood Blend Xtract SB055WG

The particular model is stationary and has small dimensions. Its power is not very big - 300 watts.

A tall bowl with a handle for 200 milliliters is firmly attached to the mechanism. Sharp blades and 2 power modes can easily handle small amounts of food.

It comes with a screw-on lid on the bowl with a drinking hole. This allows you to use the bowl as a container for consuming and storing the finished product, without having to pour/transfer it to another container. The design is very easy to wash.

It's also worth noting that the construction expands to the bottom, and the legs are equipped with rubber pads. This makes the blender as stable as possible and does not allow it to move on the surface during operation.

Blender Functions

Blend Xtract's main function is to whip up smoothies.

For chopping large and solid products, its power is not enough.

Therefore, its application is not very extensive - preparation:

  • smoothies;
  • smoothies;
  • shakes.

In addition, another of the functions of this device is the possibility of using its kits as utensils for consumption.

Also, the model perfectly copes with the preparation of mousses and creams, as well as crushes ice (not to a fine crumb).

What to pay attention to when buying?

When choosing a device, you need to check its performance, as well as the possibility of whipping in both modes. You should also pay attention to the equipment.

It is important that the device is not damaged. It is necessary to inspect the power supply and check that it is in good working order and has no visible damage. Make sure that the bowl is not cracked and that the knife block snaps tightly into place.

It is also necessary to note the fastening of all removable parts - they should not "chatter".

The knives should be sharpened and not bent.

    Was considering this option when choosing a blender as well. I am still looking for it. I was not happy with the instructions of the blender that it says that it is dangerous to remove the bowl while the blades are spinning. And it is not clear that the blades continue to rotate some time with the blender motor off or something.

    The blender has good power, whips well. But only two powers, in my opinion not enough. The powers switch smoothly. The kit includes a non-pouring cup. We have a small child and this cup really helps us. We make smoothies for the baby, as the blender whips all the fruit almost to a liquid state.

  3. Vika Says

    When I was choosing a blender for myself this option immediately fell away, although at first I liked the look of it, but when I read the instructions I decided not to take it. Power is too small in it, because it is well suited only for cocktails, and for chopping food power it will be a bit small.
