Customer Reviews of Rival IB954W 2-Speed Ultrablend Blender
Customer Rating: Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5
Summary: Good at mixing, but a little awkward
Comment: I agree with all the reviews that praise this little appliance's ability to blend, but find it a little cumbersome. I used it daily for a few weeks to mix flaxseed oil and cottage cheese into a yogurt-like consistency (takes a couple minutes to get them really blended with no oiliness remaining), and then blend in berries and other fruit. I find the handle kind of big and uncomfortable to hold, and the whole thing a bit heavy if you need to mix for more than a few seconds. It was also NOT easy cleaning this sludge out of the blades after mixing. I've switched to a small food processor to make this concoction now. However, for other uses, these things weren't an issue and the blender works great.

As far as storage goes, the blender is very top-heavy and with the cord coming out the top, I find that if I just stand it on the counter it tends to fall over easily. A small stand or wall-hanger would be great, but it didn't come with one.

Summary: Very useful
Comment: I wish I had bought one of these years ago! This blender sits on the counter next to the stove and comes in handy just about every day. It does not scratch non-stick pots and pans or plastic bowls, and is easy to clean. A great investment for any cook.

Summary: Easy to Clean
Comment: Most of the hand blenders I've had were a pain to clean and became clogged when trying to blend soups. This one, on the other hand is very easy to clean. It may not have the most power, but that's a quibble. That it's easy to clean is why I'm liking it.

Summary: Great value for the money
Comment: Very happy with this purchase. The only thing that would make it better would be if it were cordless, but hey, for the price, it's a great value and works great.

Summary: Rival Ultrablend blender -great blender for the price
Comment: I've been using this now for awhile, and am very pleased with it. I bought it for making smoothies. I've been pretty hard on it. Sometimes it even smells hot, but it keeps on going. A great little blender.

  • Choosing Appliance -> Built-in Ovens
    The standard 60cm oven has been joined by various other sizes. Now consumers can choose from 60,70 and 90cm wide built-in single ovens. Always check the internal capacity shown in litres as well as the external dimensions.
    Choosing Appliance -> Food Processor
    This is a big ticket item, but worth its weight in gold. It will save so much time when it comes to simple chopping or more advanced preparations like mayonnaise. As with most things, buy quality-- it will last longer, be capable of tougher jobs, and give you less problems. To make the food processor easiest to use, leave it on the counter top instead of storing it in a cabinet.

    Tips How to Maintain Appliance -> Maximize the efficiency of appliances
    You can also maximize the efficiency of appliances you already own through regular maintenance and tune-ups and system upgrades. Examples of some things that you can do are:
    • Check air filters in heating and cooling systems monthly during the seasons they are in use and clean and replace them as necessary.
    • Clean air vents, baseboards, and radiators regularly and keep them unrestricted by furniture, carpets, or drapes.
    • Release trapped air from hot water radiators once or twice a season by opening the valve until nothing but water comes out.
    • Follow prescribed maintenance (e.g., maintaining certain water levels in steam heat systems).
    • Install an insulating jacket on your hot water heater, insulate hot water pipes, and lower the water heater temperature.
    • Clean refrigerator coils yearly and maintain internal temperatures between 36 degrees F (2.2 degrees C) and 38 degrees F (33 degrees C) for the refrigerator compartment and between 0 degrees F (17.8 degrees C) and 5 degrees F (15.0 degrees C) for the freezer compartment.
    • Move the refrigerator if it is currently located near the stove or dishwasher.
    • Regularly defrost refrigerators that do not have a completely automatic defrost capability to eliminate ice build-up on interior coils.
    • Clean dryer filters after each use or as necessary.
