The ikon Hemisphere Blender features the Bowl/Blade System that was designed to process a variety of kitchen tasks, from crushing ice to purees. The stainless steel base adds an elegant touch to any kitchen.

Product Features

  • Control Pad - The pad is designed without crevices for easy cleaning and gives you precise control over the 610 watt motor's 5 speed settings (mix, chop, blend, liquefy and puree) and pulse function.
  • 100% Blending - The Hemisphere Bowl/Blade System utilizes a large, semicircular shredding blade positioned to hug the uniquely shaped bowl. The consistent clearance between the blades and the bowl shreds ingredients into fine, consistent particles.
  • Jar - The 54 ounce (1.6 liter) engineering grade borosilicate glass jar is designed for optimal clarity and to resist scratching, chipping and fogginess. The dual tone, baked enamel measurements in both metric and empirical volumes provide for sharp viewing and accurate measurement.
  • Easy to clean - The jar features 1/4 turn blade removal for thorough and effortless cleaning of the jar and Hemisphereâ„¢ Bowl/Blade System. All jar and blade parts are dishwasher safe. The Bowl/Blade System easily locks into place and seals for leak-free performance.

This thing will mix cement well.

"I started with a $60 blender, and it was toast in less than 5 minutes. I was trying to liquify a thick mixture that includes flax seeds, oatmeal and barley. I tried Hamilton Beach, Kitchenaid, Oster, and finally the top of the line Krups(which krapped out too.) None of the above didn't overheat or fail altogether, before the job was comnpleted. Also, none actually liquified the mixture: there were always sma..." Read Full Review »

DIFFICULT TO STOP LEAKING

"I wanted to get more fruits and veggies into my diet. I decided to start making smoothies instead of juicing. I used the machine almost daily for 6 weeks and it worked very well. I made smoothies with kale, carrots, apples, mangos, blue berries...you name it. The problem with the blender is you have to have a muscle man with strong arms and hands to tighten the blade attachment or the blender will leak. You..." Read Full Review »
