Best blender for everyday use? KitchenAid Pure Power is now available with a glass jar
KitchenAid Pure Power Blender is now available with a 1.85 L glass jar . Alongside the new jar option, new colours are also joining the Pure Power range, giving you more choice based on both your everyday needs and your kitchen.
If you are looking for the best blender for everyday use , it is worth considering more than motor power alone. A good blender should handle smoothies, soups, sauces, ice and frozen ingredients, allow you to control the texture, and be easy enough to use and clean regularly.
KitchenAid Pure Power combines these features in one blender: 10 speeds, Pulse function, dedicated programmes for smoothies, ice crushing and cleaning, and 360° asymmetric blades.
You can now also choose between two jar materials: a 1.85 L glass jar or a 2 L BPA-free plastic jar .
New Pure Power glass jar – why choose glass?
One of the main advantages of a glass jar is that glass absorbs fewer odours and is less prone to staining than plastic .
This is particularly practical if you often blend strongly coloured or aromatic ingredients, such as berries, tomato sauces, herbs, soups or spiced sauces.
Glass also maintains its appearance well over time, with fewer visible scratches and signs of wear. The heavier glass jar also gives the blender a more substantial feel during use.
The new Pure Power glass jar has a capacity of 1.85 litres , providing plenty of space for everyday smoothies as well as larger batches of soups, sauces and other blends.
Glass jar or plastic jar – which KitchenAid Pure Power blender should you choose?
Pure Power is available with both glass and plastic jars. The blender's main functions remain the same – the key differences are the jar material, capacity and handling.
Pure Power with glass jar
Pure Power with plastic jar
1.85 L glass jar
2 L BPA-free plastic jar
Absorbs fewer odours
Lighter to lift and handle
Less prone to staining
Slightly larger capacity
Fewer visible scratches and signs of wear
Lower risk of breakage
More substantial feel
Practical for frequent everyday use
Good for strongly coloured or aromatic ingredients
Good if you move the jar frequently
If you value a durable material, reduced odour absorption and a more substantial feel , the glass jar is a good choice.
If lower weight, slightly larger capacity and easy everyday handling are more important to you, the 2 L BPA-free plastic jar is a practical option.
Whichever you choose, you get the same Pure Power blending performance and functions.
Why could KitchenAid Pure Power be the best blender for you?
The best blender is not necessarily the same for everyone. Much depends on what you prepare most often.
However, if you want one blender that can handle a morning smoothie as well as soups, sauces, dips, ice and frozen ingredients, KitchenAid Pure Power is a strong all-round choice for everyday home use .
Pure Power has 10 different speeds , giving you more control than simpler blenders with only a few speed settings.
This means the blending result can be adjusted to suit the food.
Lower speeds work well when you want to retain more texture. Higher speeds help achieve a smoother result for smoothies, soups and sauces.
The Pulse function can also be used when you need short, controlled bursts of blending.
A good blender for smoothies and frozen ingredients
If you are looking for a blender for smoothies , it needs to handle frozen fruit, berries and ice as well.
KitchenAid Pure Power uses 360° asymmetric blades , which work on ingredients from different angles and help guide them back towards the blades during blending.
The blender also has a dedicated Smoothie programme , which makes smoothie preparation easier, and an Ice Crush programme for crushing ice.
This makes Pure Power a practical choice for smoothies and smoothie bowls, drinks with ice, blended soups, sauces, dips, purées, and frozen fruit and berries.
10 speeds give you control over texture
Not every food needs the same blending speed.
For salsa, you may want to keep more texture. For a smoothie, you are likely looking for a very smooth result. With a blended soup or sauce, a smooth and creamy consistency may be the priority.
Pure Power's 10-speed control allows you to choose the right speed from 1 to 10.
This gives you control over the final result instead of limiting you to only a few preset blender speeds.
Can KitchenAid Pure Power be used for blended soups?
Yes. Pure Power is suitable for processing both cold and hot ingredients.
The vented lid on the glass-jar model allows steam to escape, making the blender suitable for preparing blended soups and warm sauces.
When blending hot liquids, always follow the quantity limits stated in the appliance instructions. With the glass-jar Pure Power, the maximum amount of hot liquid is 1.1 litres at a time .
This means KitchenAid Pure Power does not have to be used only as a smoothie blender – it can be used for a wide range of everyday recipes.
Cleaning programme makes everyday use easier
With a blender, performance is not the only thing that matters. For everyday use, ease of cleaning is just as important.
Pure Power has a dedicated Clean programme .
After blending, add water and a small amount of washing-up liquid to the jar and start the cleaning cycle. This helps remove fresh food residue from the jar and around the blades without extensive manual cleaning.
It is a small feature, but an important one if you use your blender several times a week or even every day.
Pure Power is now available in new colours
The new glass-jar Pure Power also introduces colours that were not previously available for Pure Power.
One of the new shades is Agave – a deep blue-green colour that adds more colour to the KitchenAid range while remaining calm and easy to combine with different interiors.
Another new shade is Cardamom , a warm green inspired by nature.
The glass-jar Pure Power is also available in more classic shades.
With KitchenAid, colour is more than a decorative detail. Because a blender often stays on the kitchen worktop, the choice of colours makes it easier to coordinate the appliance with the rest of your kitchen and appliances.
Glass-jar blender or plastic-jar blender?
If jar material is one of the main factors in your choice, the decision can be quite straightforward.
Choose Pure Power with a glass jar if you want a material that absorbs fewer odours, if you frequently blend strongly coloured ingredients, if you prefer fewer visible scratches and signs of wear, if you like the more substantial feel of a heavier jar, or if you want Pure Power in the new colour options.
Choose Pure Power with a plastic jar if you prefer the lightest possible jar, move the jar frequently during the day, want the slightly larger 2 L capacity, or if a lower risk of breakage is important to you.
In terms of blending performance, there is no need to compromise – the main Pure Power functions are the same with both jar options.
Which blender is best for everyday use?
If you ask which is the best blender , there is no single answer that suits everyone.
For everyday home use, however, it makes sense to choose a blender that can handle a wide range of tasks and does not become limiting after the first few uses.
KitchenAid Pure Power is a good choice for anyone looking for one versatile blender for smoothies, soups, sauces, ice, purées and frozen ingredients.
Its strengths include 10 speeds, precise texture control, 360° asymmetric blades, Smoothie, Ice Crush and Clean programmes, and now the option to choose between glass and plastic jars.
The new KitchenAid Pure Power with a 1.85 L glass jar is particularly suitable for those who have preferred glass in a blender but also wanted the functionality of Pure Power.
The same KitchenAid Pure Power – now also with a glass jar and in new colours.
