Watts, jar material, and what happens to ice · review
PerfectMix Essential: 1,200 W and up to 28,000 rpm behind a heat-resistant glass jar of 68 oz (2 L), of which Tefal publishes 51 oz (1.5 L) as usable. Powelix blades that come out for cleaning, an ergonomic dial with stepless speed and a pulse mode, and a dishwasher-safe jar.
The net of it The one to look at if soup is the job. A heat-resistant glass jar is a different proposition from Tritan, and it is the specification that decides whether hot liquid goes in the blender or waits to cool. Tefal also does something almost unheard of in this category: it publishes the usable capacity — 51 oz inside a 68 oz jar — instead of letting the rim figure stand alone. Stepless speed on top of that makes it the most controllable blender here short of the Braun.
The only glass jar in this family. Tefal states it is heat-resistant and names hot preparations among the uses — which is the whole reason to choose glass over the Tritan on the Emerio and the Braun. Glass is heavier to lift when full, and it breaks. Those are the terms.
68 oz (2 L) stated, 51 oz (1.5 L) usable. Every blender jar has a working level below its rim, and Tefal is the only maker of the four here to publish both numbers. It is the difference between planning for two quarts of soup and discovering you have a quart and a half.
Both published, which lets this model be compared on paper with the Braun (1,600 W) rather than on adjectives. Tefal names its blade geometry Powelix and describes sharpened blades at an optimized cutting angle. No noise figure is published, and at 28,000 rpm that is the specification one would most like to have.
An ergonomic dial with stepless speed, plus a pulse mode. Continuous rather than stepped, which matters at the slow end where a coarse texture is decided.
The stainless blades are removable and the glass jar is dishwasher-safe. Removable blades are also what make a leaking base a part rather than an appliance.
Tefal is the European name of the brand sold here as T-fal, and the BL771BF0 is a European model built for 220–240 V mains. Amazon.com lists the reference but shows it as currently unavailable, and no US price was read when this page was revised. A 230-volt blender on a 120-volt outlet runs at a fraction of its power, or not at all, and a plug adapter does not change the voltage.
If a heat-resistant glass jar is the reason you came, look for the same features under T-fal or another brand sold for 120 V: a glass jar stated heat-resistant, a published usable capacity, and removable blades.

Tefal states the glass jar is heat-resistant and names hot liquid among its uses. What temperature, and with what venting, is set by the manual that ships with your unit — every glass jar has a limit and it is the maker who publishes it.
Because the seal under a blade assembly is the part that leaks, and a blade that comes out is a blade that can be cleaned properly and replaced when it dulls. On this site those parts have their own hub.

Hot soup blended in the jar, and a texture chosen rather than accepted.

1,600 W · 18 programs · 10 speeds
PowerBlend 9: 1,600 W, a triangular 2-liter Tritan jar Braun states leaves no dead corners, eighteen programs, ten manual speeds and a pulse. iTexture Control pairs six automatic programs with three textures — fine, medium or coarse — and the PrecisionEdge blades are forged in Solingen.
Best for: Someone who wants a specific texture, repeatably, and will use more than two settings.
500 W · 1.5 L Tritan · 2 speeds + pulse
The entry blender here, and the only one whose lid carries a safety switch: Emerio states the motor will not start unless the lid is closed properly. 500 W, a 1.5-liter BPA-free Tritan jar, two speeds plus pulse, a stainless blade unit, and both jar and lid declared dishwasher-safe.
Best for: Soups and smoothies in a household that would rather not own a glass jar.
450 W · 1.9 L · ProBlend
The 3000 Series, and the blender in this family that publishes portions rather than only liters: a 1.9-liter jar Philips states serves up to five 200 ml glasses. 450 W with one speed and a pulse, the ProBlend system, a dishwasher-safe plastic jar, and a portable drinking bottle in the box.
Best for: Smoothies for a family of four or five, from a jar that goes straight in the dishwasher.
