Man Blender
The new L’ Equip RPM Blender is marketed toward the man of the house and his buddies partly because it’s powered by a 900-watt motor for dazzling speeds topping out around 20,000 rpm. To make sure the gents can’t resist, the regular operating speed indicator has been replaced with a manly tachometer. The multi-function, multi-speed unit can be turned down to a mere 500 rpm for those times when you don’t want your ingredients turned into instant juice. Get one for $169.99 at Target.com.
