Description

Overall Opinion: A powerful blender that is perfect for any serious smoothie enthusiast. Less powerful than the more expensive KitchenAid Proline blender but the K400 is plenty for most consumers. The K400 KitchenAid blender offers a nice balance of features and performance for the price compared to other KitcheAid blenders below.

Simple to use variable speed dial and 3 preset recipe programs (Ice Crushing, Icy Drinks, and Smoothie). This model also uses KitchenAid’s soft start motor which helps to pull ingredients into the center at the beginning for better blending results. You cannot use the KitchenAid Diamond to blend hot ingredients, but the blade’s movement can create enough friction to make hot soup from scratch. Also, the blender would not pass as a juice extractor, but it can make whole juice and not milk from any nuts or seeds. Footprint-wise, the machine is relatively compact compared to most, but it’s tall to accommodate the capacity of the jug, meaning it may have to live on a worktop instead of in a cupboard, unless it’s disassembled. It weighs an average 4.5kg, so moving it around isn’t too arduous. Negatives: Less power than more expensive models.Not designed to perform the same blending functions as a countertop blender.

Value

Called the Diamond for its durability as well as its faceted jug, this blender has inherited some design features from the Artisan blender, but most are new additions. This blender uses a 60 ounce BPA-free container with a 0.9 horsepower (550 watts according to Manufacturer) motor which weaker compared to other full-size blenders that use a 60 ounce container. The blade is built into the pitcher and uses a gear on the bottom of the pitcher to connect to the motor base. Positives: Attractive blender with many color choices and solid metal die-cast base. Performs well with ice and blending smoothies. The Intelli-Speed Motor Control works pretty well throughout the entire blending process. Easy to use and clean design. The blender features a three-part blending system that combines the ribbed jug design with an asymmetric blade and Intelli-Speed motor control which senses contents and maintains optimal speed and power; these features all work in harmony for efficient blending.

For a more affordable option the Diamond blender is a decent performer but keep in mind that it isn’t the most powerful blender in its price range. FAQ’s : The KitchenAid diamond 5 speed blender model KSB1575 is their most popular blender (it is available also in KSB1570 and KSB655) as it is easy to use, available is over 20 colors, and reasonably priced. The “diamond” refers to Kitchenaid’s new pitcher design at the bottom of the pitcher which is supposed to improve blending results. It has a relatively heavy, sturdy base that is still compact enough for easy storage. Clean design and simple controls with light-up indicators to show what blending function you are using.

Positives: In general it is a nice looking blender with a sturdy feel, clean design, and simple controls. We’ve used this model for years and find that it blends frozen fruit, ice, raw vegetables, and soft items quite easily. This blender features a powerful 3.5 peak horsepower motor and unique stainless steel blade for better blending results. The controls are easy to use with a start/stop lever, Pulse high/low lever, and 11 speed variable dial with 3 preset blending functions that automatically adjust speeds for proper blending. Positives: Heavy-duty blender with a clean look and easy to use controls. Designed to compete against other high-performance blenders. Kitchenaid offers a 10 year hassle-free replacement warranty on their ProLine blenders which is similar to competing premium brands.

A: Same blender just slightly different control panel design. Both blenders offer same functionality. The KSB1575 comes with a 60oz soft grip diamond shaped container and the KSB1570 comes with the 56oz round bottom container. Positives:Powerful motor with features like Soft Start and Intell-speed to improve blending. Blends smoothies very well with useful preset blending functions. Can puree difficult ingredients like raw vegetables, fibrous greens, and seeds. There’s no denying that there are lots of blenders on the market, but there are far few that are as well thought out and robust as this one. Rather than a one-speed-fits-all approach, the Diamond’s tailored programmes take the guesswork out of daily food preparation – essential if you’re keen to achieve effortlessly smooth results every time. A host of design features make it easy to use, plus there are some elements, such as its leak-preventing one-piece pitcher and its snugly fitting lid, that ensure it’ll still be blitzing through food in years to come. The KSB560 is similar to the KSB1575 Diamond blender above but more affordable. It comes with the round bottom 56 ounce BPA-free jar (rather than the Diamond jar design) with the same gear coupling design as the KSB1575 blending jar mentioned above.

Verdict

Negatives: While this blender has a lot of power, testers found that it didn’t offer quite the same blending performance as Vitamix or Blendtec and the KitchenAid ProLine required more use of the tamper for even blending. Not sure if the performance difference is due to Kitchenaid’s blade or jar design versus Vitamix and Blendtec’s.
