Blendtec Total Blender Classic 570 with WildSide

How does it blend everything ever, as seen on Will It Blend? Let’s count the ways
The 1570-watt motor spins the blades at 300 miles per hour
The blades are thick and heavy, which at 300 mph do even more damage than sharp knife edges would be
The jar’s fifth or “Wild” side redirects ingredients back into the maelstrom rather than letting them hide along the walls
Model: C570A2301C (this unwieldy, non-intuitive model number is our least favorite thing about this blender)

Now 0.6% more powerful!

You know the Blendtec 560. You’ve marveled as it answered the mechanical question Will It Blend? You thought it had to be the absolute last word in blending power. But that was before you met the Blendtec 570, the miraculously advanced newer model with - are you ready? - here it comes:

Uh, ten more watts.

That’s right! On the surface, the Blendtec 570 is the same charismatic chop monster that won YouTube’s heart. Its jar still has that fifth “Wildside” that keeps ingredients from clumping up along the outside of the jar. But under the hood, where the old Blendtec motor brought a mere 1,560 watts to bear on pulverizing your smoothies, sauces, soups, and iPhones, this Blendtec 570 leaps beyond any previously known Blendtec to deliver a mighty 1,570 watts of blending motor power! That’s an increase of - brace yourself - it’s true:

Uh, 0.6% more watts.

You’ll ooh! You’ll aah! You probably won’t actually see any difference in its effects unless you’re some kind of hypersensitive blender savant… but you’ll know it’s there! You’ll know your new Blendec 570 is obliterating everything you thought you know about blenders with its - believe it or not - here we go:

Uh, ten extra watts.

Does it actually matter? Is it a meaningful boost in power? Isn’t it possible that any given motor’s effective wattage may vary by at least that amount from the theoretical standard? Why did Blendtec chop off the thousands digit when naming these models? Is this whole thing just a way to differentiate the Blendtec models made specifically for Costco from those made for the wider retail market? Who cares?!? The important thing is that you can tell Blendtec 560 owners that your Blendtec 570 is - are you sitting down? - check this out:

Uh, 0.6% more powerful.
