This electric blender from Skyfood (model LAR-25LMBE) is a splendid high volume commercial blender suitable for any large scale kitchen blending tasks. The stainless steel canister is seamless, with four internal buttress ribs, resulting in a very strong reinforced container; the entire canister is counterweighted at the bottom so that it tilts forward, making it very easy to pour out the final product. Blending is achieved via four stainless steel blades that turn at 3500 R.P.M., powered by the unit's 1.5 Hp motor (the motor runs on regular 110V wall current. All this powerful churning results in approximately 14,000 cuts per minute, creating the familiar "whirlpool" effect and ensuring thorough mixing. This Skyfood standing floor blender is a serious high volume blender fit for mass production. It mixes up to 6.5 gallons of product at a time quickly and easily and would be an ideal choice for demanding chefs working in busy commercial environments.
