The versatility and quiet of restaurant blenders on your countertop

No need to worry about waking up the house – or the neighborhood – for that 6:00 a.m. smoothie. The Hamilton Beach® Sound Shield 950 is designed to reduce noise from the four different areas of a traditional blender. It’s quiet enough to carry on your party conversation when mixing margaritas, or prepping dinner while the baby naps upstairs.

A hinged, 2-piece sound shield opens and closes over the 52 oz. MultiBlend glass jar. The base is designed to fit both the included 52 oz. glass jar and the 20 oz. travel jar, giving you the flexibility to blend for one or the whole family. With 950 watts of power, 5 speeds and three programmed settings, including smoothie, you can do everything from mix salsas to puree soups. Stainless steel blades make quick work of crushing ice, and the drip-free pour spout means no more smoothie running down the side of the jar or all over your kitchen counter. The blade and jar are both dishwasher safe.

Engineered to Reduce Noise
Similar to commercial quiet blenders, a two-piece sound shield reduces noise while blending, even with frozen ingredients. It’s hinged for easy access to your blender, and removes for cleaning. The motor enclosure and quiet fan design also work to soften sound.

5 Speeds with Pulse
Control the 950 watts of power with five different speed settings range from high to low. A high-speed pulse lets you blend with control for the perfect consistency and to avoid over-processing.

50 oz MultiBlend™ Glass Jar & Stainless Steel Blades
Puree and blend a wide variety of foods and drinks— from fresh garden salsa to homemade butternut squash soup and icy drinks like smoothies and margaritas— thanks to the MultiBlend™ design of the 50 oz glass jar and stainless steel blades.

Personal Blend-In Jar with Travel Lid
With the twist of the blade collar you can switch from blending in the larger jar to blending in the travel jar. It's 20 oz size and travel lid make it perfect for on-the-go smoothies, protein shakes and icy drinks.

• Add your ingredients and attach the cutting blade assembly and jar collar on the personal jar.
• Turn the personal jar upside down and shake it, then put it on the blender base and blend.
• Remove the personal jar from the base and collar and cutting assembly from jar. Top the personal jar with the drinking lid and go!

TEST KITCHEN TIPS:

• 50 oz MultiBlend™ Glass Blender Jar
  • Always place liquid in the blender jars first, then the remaining ingredients
  • For best performance, use a minimum of 1 cup (8 oz / 237 ml) of liquid per recipe. Add more liquid if the food is not blending properly.
  • If ingredients stick to the sides of the jar or blending appears to stop, try pulsing or adding more liquid to the blender jar.
  • If ice or frozen fruit pieces are not blending, stop the blender and pulse a few times.
• 20 oz Personal Blender Jar
  • When blending in the personal jar, keep your hand on top of the jar to hold it securely in place.
  • If ingredients stick to the sides of the jar or blending appears to stop, remove the jar, shake it, then return to blending.
  • For best performance in the personal jar, use a minmum of 3/4 cup (6 oz / 177 ml) of liquid per recipe.
  • Always place frozen ingredients or ice into jar first— when jar is turned upside down to blend, frozen items will be on top.
