Compare Blenders
BLACK+DECKER FusionBlade Blender BL1110RG scores higher on safety - here's why.
The most important dimensions, side by side.
Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
Your primary goal is a glass-jar blender with independent safety verification at the lowest possible price.
You blend soft ingredients — fresh fruit, light sauces, dressings, simple smoothies — and don't need motor power for tougher recipes.
You're a single-person or couple household and 550W covers your everyday needs.
Budget is the top constraint and you're willing to accept motor limitations to stay under $43.
You want a blender proven to last 7-10+ years with a full warranty backing that claim.
You make daily smoothies and weekly soups for a family and need the full 64oz capacity in one batch.
You prioritize long-term reliability over modern features like dishwasher-safe parts.
You blend primarily cold ingredients and are comfortable with Tritan plastic under use-with-caution guidance.
The main thing to know
ASIN B00NBLILH4 was verified to resolve to the BL1110RG FusionBlade, not the BL4000S Quiet Blender this slug suggests. Human review is required before this page goes live to confirm the intended product.
The Vitamix 5200 uses a Tritan copolyester jar — brand-named BPA-free but independent peer-reviewed studies have found trace chemical migration from Tritan under standard conditions, particularly with hot liquids and acidic foods.
Skip this if you...
You regularly blend frozen fruit, ice, or fibrous greens — 550W is the weakest motor in this category and will struggle.
You need a blender that can handle tough daily recipes consistently — consider the Oster Pro 1200 for 1200W at $130.
You require full product identity certainty before purchasing — the ASIN mismatch on this listing needs editorial resolution first.
You want glass or stainless-steel food-contact surfaces to eliminate plastic concerns entirely.
You need a dishwasher-safe jar because hand-washing around sharp blades is a dealbreaker for daily use.
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
