*How does it work?
Well, it's amazingly simple. For a fab smoothie choose the fruit you want in your recipe; take off the top lid; tip in your fruit and add sufficient milk / juice / alcohol.... whatever liquid you've decided on; replace the lid and switch on. There are handy measuring lines on the jug so that if you're brave enough to make up your recipe you can get the solid : liquid ratio right.

Advantages: great quality, good service, powerful, tap, stirrer, cool looks Disadvantages: jug cracked after 4 months, base can be stiff
...paid about £60 for the Kenwood after shopping around for a while. The first thing you notice is how heavy it is. The jug is thick glass and the base is metal. Inside is a 700 watt powerful motor which will happily crush ice and decimate most vegetables and fruit. The front of the machine has three buttons. On the right of the machine is the 'mix' and 'smooth' options (basically fast and faster). These are 'clickable' so they will stay on when you ... ...habit its okay.
The Kenwood comes with a small booklet on different mixes for fruit juices and smoothies but I'd advise getting a proper book as there are some really good ones on the market.
As I said, we use this every day and its never let us down or shown any signs of doing so except for the cracked jug. We are okay about this because the service we got from Kenwood after 4 months use was such that we have confidence in the product and the ...

Advantages: Crushes Ice, looks good in the Kitchen Disadvantages: Fiddly to clean and expensive
...effective purchase.
I bought the Kenwood SB307 Smoothie maker.
*******What’s it like to use?********************
I bought this particular maker because my sister had the SB206, which was the first model of this kind.
My sisters smoothie maker is plastic with a chrome look.
It has 3 buttons, which mix and pulse (the pulse button can be used to mix faster and crush ice cubes).
She bought it for £29.99.
The SB307 cost me £69.97 from a popular ... ...I would use it daily and this model seemed to be built to last longer.
My sister also informed me that her model’s silver exterior peeled. It was also difficult to clean. The tap, which extracts the mixed liquid, became clogged with dried mixture. It’s hard to get out.
She said that she didn’t always wash it with soap and water, just water.
It can probably be overcome with very hot soapy water running through the tap. My model ...

Advantages: Does exactly what it says on the tin Disadvantages: Nozzle doesn't always get the last dregs out
...bought one of these, the Kenwood SB307 (although, I must say, I don't tend to call it that. I just call it "the blender", hence the need to match it to the picture!) It does the job. And what I mean by that, of course, is that it makes near-perfect smoothies. Smoothies I would pay the exorbitant prices of university towns to have the privilege of drinking. Smoothies that I have sought out in the even-more-highly-priced environs of Central London. ... ...gadget for a fraction of the price. Retailing at around £40-£50, you get a good looking machine for your money. With its brushed metal body and trademark "smoothie tap" for easy-dispensing, it can handle just about anything you throw at it. The jar itself is dishwasher safe, as the blades can be removed for easy cleaning. It holds a commendable 2 litres, which is more than enough for most parties, and, given it was specially designed for making smoothies, ...

Bought this for around £50 and was initially impressed with its features but ultimately i was unimpressed with it's durability. The motor is very strong and can crush ice/oats and fruit/veg easily but i found that the glass jug, while very strong and heavy, was still prone to cracking when it contained a lot of liquid. After about 6 months of use the glass jug began to crack around the handle, meaning you couldn't fill up the jug all the way when ...

Advantages: Holds large quantity of liqiuds and fruits, very solid and sturdy. Disadvantages: Glass jug quite heavy especially when full.
...think i would buy another Kenwood but this one is much more solid with a large glass jug rather than the smaller plastic one.
To Use
Place any liquids into the unit first, then add solids and lastly ice. I use crushed ice, as it comes out of the front of my freezer that way, but average sized cubes will be cut up easily. Place the lid onto the jug, place in the stirrer if required or just put on the plastic top and switch on. You can either pulse, ... ...on the bottom of the jug when opened, straight into a glass. If preferred the jug can be lifted from the base, containg the power unit, and the mixture poured from the top.
Ideas
There are some recipe ideas in the instruction book and there are various books to buy containing ideas for alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. I mainly use mine for a daily breakfast smoothie for the family. This consists of natural set yoghurt, milk, acouple of bananas ...

Advantages: Everlasting, tough as old boots, reassuringly heavy and very chic. Disadvantages: Cleaning it is like nailing a jelly onto a wall - a bit hard and tedious
The first thing you notice about this blender is its sheer, incredible weight. With a chunky glass jug and solid stainless-steel base, it feels expensive, solid and professional. I chose it because all of the appliances in my kitchen are chrome and it matches really well with the general scheme. But as well as being very beautiful, it is without a shadow of a doubt the best blender I've ever owned. The blades are still as sharp as the day I got it; ... ...problems and, If you aren't very careful, you can still cut yourself on them when you're cleaning it. But I don't only use it for smoothies... it also does a great line in soups and cocktails... so when you've finished being healthy, you can get steaming drunk! Its only bad point in cleaning - the tap at the bottom has no problems with thin fluids like orange juice but has trouble coping with chunky or gloopy stuff like banana based smoothies. If ...

Advantages: Easy to use, easy to clean, blends smoothly with no lumps Disadvantages: Very heavy and not as compact as some would like
I was given one of these as a Christmas present, and use it predominantly for making smoothies. The metal jug has an internal measuring rule, which makes it much easier to measure out quantities of ingredients. The blades are very sharp, and crush ice and frozen fruit with no problems. The jug is very large, and can make smoothies for up to six people. The machine has four settings, including pulse and mix. The tap function ensures that all of the ...

It works nicely and is powerfull, being capible of smothing frozen fruit and ice with ease. Most importantly though, is it makes nice smothies and juices.
Theres not many bad points to list, it would have been better if it was dishwasher safe. Maybe its on the expensive side for ...
