What the product listing won't tell you
Know before you buy
The Breville Super Q delivers unmatched blending power and the longest warranty in the category, but its Tritan jar introduces trace migration risk that glass or stainless alternatives avoid entirely.
You want the most powerful consumer blender available (1800W) and prioritize performance over inert material.

You blend tough ingredients β frozen fruit, whole nuts, fibrous greens β daily and need a motor that won't falter.
A 10-year warranty is important to you and you're willing to pay for it.
You're comfortable with Tritan copolyester and the brand's named BPA-free claim.
Chemical inertness of the jar material is your top priority β tempered glass and stainless steel options deliver a safer food-contact profile.
Budget is a concern β at $500, safer glass-jar alternatives are available for under $200.
Noise is a dealbreaker β at 82.4 dB it's the quietest in its class, but still clearly audible during blending.

The Breville Super Q uses a Tritan copolyester jar β the same polymer used by Vitamix and Blendtec. Breville explicitly names the material and claims BPA-free status, which is a higher-assurance disclosure than a generic claim.
However, peer-reviewed research has detected trace migration of related compounds from Tritan under certain conditions, and Mamavation designates Tritan-jar blenders as 'use-with-caution.' If chemical inertness is your priority, a glass or stainless steel jar is a safer choice. For families comfortable with named-polymer BPA-free products, the Super Q's 1800W performance may justify the tradeoff.
Criteria
Tritan is marketed as BPA-free and used by premium brands (Vitamix, Blendtec). However, Mamavation cites peer-reviewed evidence showing migration of DMIP (dimethyl isophthalate), BBP (benzylbutyl phthalate), and detectable BPA from Tritan samples under standard conditions. Estrogenic activity detected under UV exposure.
At 1800W, the Super Q is at the top of the consumer blender power tier β sufficient for sustained heavy-duty blending of frozen fruit, whole nuts, fibrous greens, and hot soups via friction heating. The 68oz jar is above the 64oz family-batch standard. This is the best efficacy profile in the blender category.
Criteria
The Super Q is the quietest measured blender in TechGearLab's tests at 82.4 dB β still audible but best-in-class. The 10-year warranty signals exceptional manufacturer confidence and is the longest in the category.
Criteria
76β85 dB is noticeably loud but within best-in-class range for standard blenders.
