what is the difference between the Victorio strainer over using an emmersion blender
1399470
The strainer separates the product verses blended it all together, i.e. tomato skins & seeds from the tomato pulp.

The blender chops everything up....the strainer removes the pulp and seeds...

NO they are different. Specifically the 750 has a preprogrammed setting that allows you to blend to a specific recipe and then the unit shuts off after it reaches the required consistency. thank you

Hi Jeannine, I purchased the Breville and was not happy with having to "tamp" the ingredients in order to achieve thorough blending. The Ninja is the only blender that utilizes a 3 tier, 6 bladed system that circulates the ingredients for a thorough blend. The Ninja Mega system comes with everything you need and also has additional accessories. It also costs less than half the price for more uses and we are thoroughly happy with it. Check for "World's best blender" commercials on TV or maybe Utube. Good luck!

That's a great question. Although there are similarities, rest assured that we did not copy them. Our ceramic mandoline slicer has a different design (especially along the sides). It is sturdier. Also, the handle is different.

There is an x grid. We really like the strainer over conventional ones. Hope this helps.

The variable speed gives you the range much like the multiple settings on a typical blender (Stir, Chop, Mix, Puree, Liquefy). You can also start out slowly and then turn it up as you go along to ultimately emulsify the contents. It works great for smoothies, which is mainly why I bought it. I like it, but it would be a personal preference thing, depending upon how you plan to use it. It definitely gives you more versatility.

Fortunately I have access to both and did a pretty thorough review of them on my blog site at http://www.blendblog.net/Default.aspx?tabid=36&EntryID=64. Hope this helps, I like both devices but they are different and which one to get really depends on what you are looking for which I breakdown in my review. Sean

Almost. The container is slighter wider and maybe 15% shorter. It is as though you are using the other brand's blender - same blade. We like the lower profile, and it works very well.

I had a Vitamix that I got tired of carrying back and forth to use at our lake house, so hoped to get a less expensive option in the Breville blender to use in that kitchen. I can only attest to the fact that the Breville was not able to make the quality of "smooth" smoothies that the Vitamix can. There were lots of bits of kale, spinach, carrot, etc. that made it feel disgusting (to me) to drink after being used to a truly blended smoothie that my Vitamix totally blends. I believed the reviews that said it did blend smoothies well....but certainly not kale. I returned the Breville to Amazon, and purchased the lower model Vitamix which works perfectly, despite no bells and whistles. I actually bought it in NH (no sales tax) with a BBandB coupon which was less expensive than anything online for Vitamix and same price as Breville. Since I only tried out the. Breville for vegetable and fruit smoothies, I cannot speak to how well it works for other foods. I do love my Vitamixes! The comment below about tamping is also true of the Vitamix depending on the order in which you place the ingredients in the blender. Most of the time I do not need to use it...or just run the cycle a second time to get everything blended thoroughly. It is true that the Ninja is cheaper and has more blades to help it blend well, but I find the Vitamix safer to clean....no need to even take it apart or put your hand in to clean the sides. That said, I do know that the less expensive Ninja is said to do a good job blending. I just hate having so many blades to navigate when washing. Good luck finding the right blender for your needs!

I bought this plastic version to replace the glass one I originally got with my Beehive blender. I like it better than the glass. It is lighter and I don't worry when my kids make a smoothie or milkshake. When the other one broke it was a horrible, dangerous mess.

Probably not. The screens and red augers are all modeled after and very similar to the Victorio strainer, but the attachment methods and shape of the crank ends must differ to avoid patent problems.

I am not familiar with the "Squeezo Strainer". I do know, the Victorio 250 Strainer parts are made very precisely for smooth operation in the Victorio. I can only imagine the "Squeezo Strainer" would need to be very similar to the housing of the Victorio in order for it to work. I just 'Googled' for information on the "Squeezo". Looking at the images, I doubt if the parts would be interchangeable.

I used it for blending soup and marinara sauce before I got an immersion blender. An immersion blender is much better for that - I can control the level of smoothness and it's less cleanup. I think the blender is best for drinks.

Probably nothing. On the les expensive blender are there other differences? Attachments? Motor capacity? The difference between the extra two speeds is not significant but there may be other things that account for the price.

Yes, a smaller unit does that. But I haven't used it yet. If it's anything like the larger blender, it should be good!

The Vinara Wine aerator is of a slightly different design than the Vinturi. It seems to work similarly and as well as the Vinturi. The plastic body is of two parts glued together. The glue failed on ours and I will have to find a suitable glue to use to reassemble it.

The smaller the number the finer the mesh. In other words the holes in the 100 micron strainer are smaller than the holes in the 400 micron strainer.
