Differences between Commercial and Residential Blenders
Price

First of all, residential blenders have a more appealing price tag for any restaurant or bar owner. While the initial investment can be considerably lower, it is important to note that most blender brands will void their warranty if a residential blender is used in a business setting.

Durability

Commercial blenders are designed for heavy use. Daily usage of more than 50 times is no problem for a quality blender of this category. Safety features concerning blade speed, overheating, and water infiltration are associated with commercial blenders.

The motor has a proper ventilation and cooling system that helps prolong the life of the device while also ensuring good performance. Commercial blenders typically use parts that are made from stronger materials that are easier to maintain. They can be disassembled and reassembled as many times as necessary and can be cleaned multiple times a day without the fear of damaging them. The typical plastic clutch drive of a residential blender is replaced with a steel one that helps the device withstand longer workload sessions.

Versatility

While residential blenders offer some degree of general use, commercial blenders are built for specific tasks. Kitchen food prep blenders can be used with all ingredients, from the smallest to the hardest of roots and whole foods. Bar blenders have very fine blades that will make sure everything you add will be liquefied within seconds so that the next drink can be prepared. Bar blenders typically should not be used in the back of the kitchen for food prep.

Warranties

Blenders produced for home use usually have significantly longer warranty plans. This is due to the fact that they are used with less frequency than commercial blenders and they will deteriorate at a slower rate. Heavy duty professional blenders are built to last for the full warranty period at the maximum strain.

Most commercial blenders come with a two to three-year warranty plan, and some even offer separate repair services for certain parts or maintenance after a specific number of cycles.
