Product Description
From top to bottom, the Hamilton Beach® Dual Wave™ Blender is all about versatility and power. Versatility because it’s a blender that’s perfect for making drinks for a crowd and then it’s a personal blender that lets you customize and blend two different drinks at once. Power because it doubles up with two sets of blades and two motors for a variety of blending and serving options. The Dual Wave™ Blender switches from an 80-ounce jar to dual 16-ounce single serve jars with ease. At 80 ounces, the pitcher is double the size of most blender jars, yet its powerful dual blades and dual motors (delivering 1000 watts peak power) are able to blend an entire pitcher-full in less than 30 seconds. That means less time blending and more time mingling with guests. With its convenient dispensing spout in place, drinks are served right into glasses, or for traditional pouring, the dishwasher-safe spout can be removed and capped off. When the party’s over and it’s time for one or two servings, the Dual Wave™ blender is ready to make two totally different recipes. How about a strawberry smoothie for you and a chocolate milkshake for the little one? That’s easy. With two blending stations, each with individual speed dial and blade set, one or two drinks can be blended at a time, exactly the way each needs to be. If all this blending power and versatility isn’t enough, the Dual Wave™ blender is also equipped with a high-performing Dual Wave~Action® system. This ensures that your ingredients are thoroughly blended for smooth results and no ice chunks every time.

When I saw this I thought the idea was really cool. I like to make protein shakes and mostly it is just for myself so the individual containers appealed to me. I paid $50 for the unit and when I first used it the rubber rings keep falling off the blade units. The capacity was fairly small and if I filled it over 3/4 full I had liquid everywhere. You have to make a VERY large portion to use the large size container and for one or two people that was over kill. I found using the Bullet Blender for my individual shakes worked by far better and by far less mess. Overall the performance of this unit for me was very substandard. I am putting it on Craigslist since I didn’t use it right away and I can’t return it to the store. I think there are better options out there that are a lot less messier. My Kitchen Aid blender is better for the smoothies as my bullet blender. I think it is expensive for what it is and what it does. Now if you party a lot and want to make gallon sized party drinks it might be just the thing. But for everyday use, I would look for other options. The footprint on this is also pretty big compared to a normal blender and if you have limited counter space this could be a problem as well.
