Excellent blender for smoothees

Drive Coupling is a weak link
, November 26, 2007Reviewer: ab3ehm - See all ab3ehm's reviews3 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this Braun MX2050 PowerMax Jug review helpfulPros: High Consumer Reports rating
Cons: Drive coupling fails
I bought on CR rating and it worked great. BUT, the drive coupling - that piece on the blender base that spins and provides power to the blender container - can strip out if you blend anything that provides much resistance. For example, ice or frozen fruit chunks for a smoothie. I have now stripped out the second coupling in less than 4 months. And the screws holding the blender together are tamperproof, so it's pretty tough to fix. Although I bought 2 couplings when it first broke, I can't get it back apart this time, so it's headed for the junk pile. Next blender I get will have a metal coupling. ...

Pros: Works better than my Oster or my Vita-Mix for making smoothees. Has a large capacity jug and an uncluttered, easy-to-clean control. Doesn't whip a lot of air into smoothees. Handles thick smoothees quite well.
Cons: The blade assembly came loose and had to be replaced. Fortunately customer service was very good about this and replaced them for free.
I have had my blender for about 6 months and was concerned about some of the issues I had seen regarding the plastic drive teeth breaking that I had seen on other posts, but my son had bought one of these and loved his. I have not been disappointed. Since I have had mine I have pretty much retired my Oster and my Vita-Mix. I use my Braun MX2050 everyday to make smoothees and it performs better than any other blender I have used. I love it. The blades did come loose in the blade assembly but Braun's customer service was very good and replaced them for free. The only thing I really miss is that the blender jar is a unique size and there are interlocks on the base, so you cannot use standard use "mini" blending jars, like the Oster can. ...
