Love this blender
I enjoy the clean and sleek look. Tried my first smoothie and it was a wonderful consistency and yummy foam and beautiful color. I like this blender so much more than the awkward heavy VitaMxx where you have to push the contents down with that black plastic thing. Cleaning is so easy. Some reviews commented on noise but its no worse than a coffee grinder for what, 60 seconds?. Macy’s delivered so fast, I am so happy I will order another one as a gift.

Great machine
I got the fresh&furious to upgrade on my last sage smoothie maker and what an upgrade! It is fantastic, the smoothies come out a lot better and not grainy. The top cover comes off a lot easier than the last one which was a struggle and occasionally spilled! The new wash feature is a great addition.

Great for blending, lid extremely difficult
This blender functions fantastically as a blender, however the lid design leaves something to be desired. It is impossible to remove after blending without the contents spewing everywhere. I have read dozens of reviews and tips and tricks in an attempt to figure out what I’m doing wrong with this lid. I have tried everything and unfortunately it seems that it is just exceptionally difficult to remove and therefore causes a mess with every use. The blender functionally is great, but don’t get this product if you value the outfit you’re wearing while using it because upon opening the blender it will fly all over you or whatever it’s facing.

Worked Well Until the Blades Seized Up
This blender worked well making smoothies for a few years, until the blades stopped spinning and the blade assembly's gear began to strip the plastic socket attached to the motor. The only solution seems to be to buy a whole new jug, since the blade assembly doesn't seem to be repairable or individually replaceable. I'm hesitant to add a whole new plastic jug to a world that doesn't need more plastic, when it's only the blade assembly that needs to be fixed. I'm also worried I'll be doing this again in a few years.

Love my Fresh & Furious Blender but…
I received my Breville Fresh & Furious Blender for Christmas and have used it twice. The issue is I cannot easily remove the lid. Is there something I am missing? My husband has helped me both times in removing lid- not that easy for him either. We use the ring that is on the lid and work it loose but not sure how long will last. Any suggestions?

We're sorry to hear of your experience. This should ease with use. Please make sure the jug isn't overfilled. This can cause a vacuum inside the jug, which can make the lid even harder to remove.
Great Features
Not too heavy to move from surface to surfaces does the jobs I bought it for very well, and I love the self clean

Hello Jan, Thanks so much for the great review! We're happy to hear your Fresh & Furious is easy to move, does the job well, and that you’re loving the self-clean feature. Enjoy! Sage Appliances
Base Leaks
I purchased this a year ago and have been disappointed that the base of the jug has a leaky seal (or something) which caused a greasy spray around the base unit and the jug itself. At some point I assume the grease will run out and it will seize completely. Despite willing, the jug is unavailable to purchase by itself. While adoring the machine and all it does, I probably won't purchase it again. Cleaning grease which is supposed to be internal from the external parts, not very agreeable.
