The KitchenAid Artisan Power Plus blenders have a high power of 1800W. This allows you to mix soft and hard ingredients into healthy smoothies, fresh soups, or smooth sauces. The tritan pitcher is sturdy and lighter than a glass pitcher. This way, you can easily pour your juices into a glass. The double walls keep your preparation at the right temperature after mixing. That's useful, because it stays warm until you serve it. You can control the Artisan Power Plus blender via the 11 speed settings. You can clean the pitcher with water and the cleaning program after use.
