This sturdy blender is useful for those who do not require the multiple settings found in most home kitchen blenders. With two speeds, low and high, the Mega-Pro blender uses 1 horsepower to crush ice or purée fruit for morning shakes and smoothies. Its 48-ounce polycarbonate jar is shatter-resistant and scalloped for easy gripping, while the all-metal base of the blender is well built and secure, attaching to the jar with a puzzle-type mount that ensures a proper fit.

This Countertop Blenders give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Really Works
After years of frustration trying to make a frozen drink with household blenders, I finally realized that I need a more powerful machine to do the job right. I bit the bullet and put up the big bucks for a 1HP machine and we love it. IT REALLY WORKS.
2. Now THIS is a blender!
After finally killing my last blender with my regular smoothie habit, we decided it was time to play with the big boys. Yes, it's twice as expensive as other "premium quality" blenders, but it's more than twice as powerful, and if you need that kind of power this blender won't disappoint. It went through my frozen banana smoothies without a hitch (no more rrrrrr-rrrrr-rrrnnn of a motor not up to the task). And the top is well designed - no drips down the sides after pouring.
One caveat: this is a commercial blender and it looks it. The base is a greenish-grey and the label on the front won't win any asthetic kitchen appliance awards. On the other hand, this is a commercial blender and it works like one. It even comes with an extra drive coupling. This quite possibly will be the last blender I ever own!
My Favorite Smoothie Recipe: 1 c. plain non-fat yogurt, 1/2 c. OJ, 1/2 c. pineapple juice (or use all OJ), 1 scoop soy protein powder (optional), 1 or 2 T flax oil...

Buy this blender if you live alone and don't entertain
One reviewer suggested this blender would be quieter if the jar was glass rather than polycarbonate. This might help, but I think a more effective solution would be to add a muffler. The motor in this machine is one horsepower and it sounds it, which can be an issue if you're the first one up in the morning making smoothies. Unless your willing to drop $300 on a soundproof acrylic case, be prepared to make a lot of noise (like a lawnmower's worth) every time you turn it on.
Unfortunately, the noise isn't my only criticism of the Mega Pro. I don't believe the rest of the blender was adequately designed to match the motor. Large ice cubes and frozen fruit had a tendency to grind down to perfect spheres and pinball around until I intervened. Also, I often found ingredients had to be strategically added to avoid ice cave or superfroth. The blender's ultimate demise, however, was a frozen strawberry, which managed to wedge itself beneath the blade (according to events recreated)...
