High-Performance Blending:
To effectively blend almost anything to a high standard, the Ascent 3500i has a 2.2 horsepower motor. Therefore, it has plenty of power to blend, puree, mix and mince ingredients of any type.
Beyond sheer blending power, the 3500i also comes with five pre-programmed blending cycles for: Smoothies, Hot soups, Dips and spreads, Frozen desserts, Self-cleaning.
These cycles make blending very accessible, even for complete beginners and cover most common blending requirements.
Programmable Timer Function:
Adding to the 3500i’s impressive blending ability is a versatile timer function. This function works in tandem with variable speed blends and allows for custom time limits to be set for them. As a result, it’s easy to produce perfect results without constant supervision.
When not in active use, the timer instead acts as a stopwatch during variable speed blends. In this mode, it will simply display the amount of time the blender has been running continuously.
Self-Detect Connectivity:
To ensure optimal blending across containers of all sizes, the Ascent 3500i uses Self-Detect technology. In application, this technology senses the size of a connected container and alters blending times and power levels accordingly.
It also offers a secondary purpose by improving user safety. If a container or lid can’t be detected or isn’t connected correctly, the 3500i will not activate. Therefore, it’s nearly impossible to have any unwanted accidents.
Anniversary Edition Upgrades:
Beyond the standard 3500i model, the Anniversary Edition comes with some fantastic extra accessories. The blending kit helps to widen the versatility of the Ascent 3500i through different container sizes. The under blade scraper makes cleaning safer and more efficient, and the recipe book contains a wide array of blending ideas.
