Recently the nice folks over at iFixit did a teardown of the Total Blender. That's right, they completely dismantled a perfectly good Blendtec Total Blender. I definitely wouldn't recommend trying this at home but its fun to see nonetheless.

Blendtec Introduces The New CHEF Blender

Blendtec Introduces New Kitchen Prep Machine
Innovative new Chef blender machine is a labor saver and has one-of-a-kind features

OREM, UTAH, USA – January 30, 2009 – Blendtec, a global provider of high-performance blenders and dispensing equipment, today announced the introduction of a totally new machine designed for commercial and institutional kitchens called the CHEF blender . This machine is designed to be a chef’s best friend by having more than enough power to handle any combination of ingredients and offering a way to repeat often-used cycles.

Working in conjunction with leading chefs and institutional clients, Blendtec has come up with a truly unique offering for a back of the house application. Now a chef can find the best combination of speed and time settings for a given recipe, then save that to the CHEF blender’s memory, and have a sous chef or kitchen assistant continue to replicate that same recipe throughout the day. This means the chef can have more time for other tasks while knowing the recipe can be replicated time after time with the same results

"The Blendtec CHEF blender is a wonderful innovative new concept for our clients who need total control over the blending process, but want an automatic function which allows a recipe to be replicated perfectly. This was really a customer-centric project where we started with a blank page and designed the blender around the way it would be used in a kitchen environment. It really opens new doors to our sales team and we anticipate a great response as more and more clients become familiar with the CHEF blender advantages," says Tom Dickson, Blendtec’s CEO.

The CHEF blender is like no other blender currently available and has Blendtec’s proven performance and reliability. It utilizes a tried and tested blending platform but integrates new control and memory functions.
