Good for the money...

This is a nice blender for the money. It has all of the features required for a good blender. 
It's warranty is outstanding. As for the noise level, it's a blender. I'm not sure what is expected out of a blender noise level. I want to hear the power and whirl of the motor, I don't find it as an issue....

After reading all the reviews I guess I should feel lucky I got approximately 20 uses out of this LOUD blender before the rubber clutch on the bottom of the blender cup stripped out. Its so loud that I would actually get a beach towl and wrap it around the motor when I used it because I was worried... read full review »

750 Watts motor

I had this for a couple of months i use it almost every day to make juice and smoothies. The jar is huge and very strong, can use it to defend.... :-) i mean its really strong. The 750 Watts motor is the most impressive  part but a little loud. Cleaning is a breeze and the blades are very strong and sharp. I love the warrenty on this it shows kenmore's confidence in their product.

I purchased this blender a few months ago and it works and looks great! I love the real glass jar (a lot seem to be plastic now.) And it's very easy to clean.  And the price can't be beat! The only thing I wasn't happy about is how loud it is.  I guess blenders are loud, but I thought it might be broken the first time I used it.  It made a terrible sound.

Seriously, Sears, you should come out with a sound collar for this monster.  I love the power and it is doing a great job of pulverizing everything I have to throw at it.  The only problem is, everyone including me has to abandon the kitchen and two adjoining rooms while blending.  I am starting to use earplugs.

Too loud!

Too loud for the price.

loud and useless

I wanted a blender that will last...the jug is now broken and I can't find the part.

oh no

I have had this blender for a while now and haven't used it. Today I thought that I would use it to make salsa and the nut on the bottom is stripped. I tried to order a new part for it, and couldn't get the one part that I needed. I think that I will be shopping for a new blender tomorrow!

Don't waste your time

This blender is so loud we have started using ear plugs when we use it. The blender always leaks. Also, with the supposedly high powered motor, it will not get all the lumps out of a yogurt and banana smoothie (no ice). It is truly a piece of junk.

Kenmore Elite Blender

I have had this blender for over a year but haven't used it much in the past 7 months or so. I decided to make my slushies again and with the first batch the bottom piece broke. The nut that holds the pieces together is stripped. I though I was buying a good blender but now I am not sure I like this one either. I have tried 3 different ones during this time. I guess my next one will be a Kitchenaide

Will keep looking.....

This item should have lasted MUCH longer than it did for the money. I had the same issue everyone else had. The bottom piece sheared off shortly after purchase. I will be taking it back for a refund and put my money towards something with a little more quality. I should have followed my instincts from the beginning. Buy a well made more expensive product and only buy once....go cheaper and pay over and over and over.....

Didn't last long!!

I bought this blender because it had a powerful motor and it was on sale. It was powerful but was also very loud, too loud when running. We enjoyed it for about a month, longer than some, and then it broke. It stripped out and had metal shavings all over. It had the same problem that other reviewers talked about. I didn't read the reviews before I bought. I'm sorry about that now. I just want my money back.

This is an excellent and powerful blender, but it i very noisy and the stupid backlight doesn't turn off which is annoying.

I used this blender twice. The second time it broke during use. I was raised on Kenmore. I have been brand loayal to Sears by my mothers example, and have had no problems until this purchase. I had every reason to trust Sears. Subsequently, I did not make it a point to save my reciept. I had no reson to believe I would need to return this item. Now Sears refuses to stand behind this product. No exchange whatsoever. No repair whatsoever. The 5year warranty is 100% misleading, worthless, and not worth the paper it is written on. I attempted to have this blender fixed via warranty to no avail. Sears...
