Philips Robust Collection blender--smooth blending in one go

Enjoy perfectly smooth blends with the innovative two-blade blending system. This blender is part of the Robust Collection, a series of durable kitchen tools that make home cooking a pleasure every day.

When processing food with a blender, air can be collected around the knife. This means that ingredients are not in the working area of the knives, so they move in free air without cutting the ingredients. This Robust blender has a special blending system that helps to prevent this, and ensures a perfect flow of ingredients through the jar so you will obtain smooth results without having to use a spatula.

Philips Robust Collection Blender HR2181 Philips Robust Collection Blender HR2181 Large switches for easy control

Blend effortlessly at different speeds thanks to the easy-to-use large switches.

Auto-accelerate function, five speeds and pulse

The auto-accelerate function gradually increases the speed from 0 to 11,000 rotations per minute within 15 seconds. Even the toughest recipes can be blended in one go. The AUTO position has a unique speed profile to easily process any recipe. The blender automatically increases its speed in 15 seconds to the maximum speed and then keeps running at this speed. The AUTO setting is basically used for processing smoothies or thick soups, when blending tomatoes or when dealing with other challenging jobs. Use the AUTO position also for small amounts to avoid splashing.

Pulse switch

When you push the pulse switch to PULSE (left switch) and hold it in this position, the blender starts to operate at the highest speed. As soon as you release the pulse switch, it returns back to its original position. The pulse button is recommended if you want to have more control over your processing job, for instance when you are chopping.
Two-blade blending system for continuous ingredient flow

The Robust blender has a special blending system with two knives that are rotating in opposite directions and at different speeds. The serrated blades of one of the knives are designed to cut even the toughest ingredients. The other knife optimises the flow of the ingredients in the jar, so that they are all processed into perfect silky blends.

Stainless steel serrated blades

Crush and blend to perfection with the long-lasting stainless steel serrated blades.

The two-litre jar is made of high-quality borosilicate glass which is scratch-proof, and allows the processing of hot ingredients. The unique oval shape ensures a perfect flow of ingredients, guaranteeing smooth results. The oval jar can easily be stored in the door of the refrigerator to chill freshly-blended ingredients.

Small lid

During processing, you can remove the small lid to add liquid and solid ingredients. The measuring cup provided with the blender can also be used to measure ingredients.

Solid metal base with 850 watt motor

The Robust blender is made of high quality materials that make this blender a culinary tool for life. Its heavy-duty metal body is fully die-cast for optimal stability while blending. With an 850 watt motor, it is developed for durable performance.
Extended guarantee

A five-year product guarantee and a 15-year guarantee on the motor will be provided upon registration within three months after purchase.

Easier to clean

This Robust blender is specially designed for easier cleaning. It is optimised for cleaning because it has no rims, so no food gets stuck. The housing has smooth surfaces, and the materials are smooth and easy to clean. All detachable parts are dishwasher-safe. The motor unit can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The easiest method is to clean the parts immediately after use. Keep your worktop tidy by storing the mains cord in the cord storage groove by winding it around the base of the motor unit.

Fantastic Blender 3 July 2010
Over the years I have had several blenders including a Krups which broke after 4 months. This is when I decided to replace it with this model and I have not been disappointed. In the past with all the blenders when I have made a strawberry shake there was always little bits of pips in the drink. Not with the Robust - the shake comes out as smooth as can be. Plus pop in some ice cubes and they are crushed within seconds with no lumps. Fantastic. The peach shake was just as good.

Leek and potatoe soup is like cream. The auto select is very useful as you do not have to worry about the liquid bursting out of the lid. It's powerful motor can deal with most things like chopping fruit and veg, bread crumbs etc.

Well worth the price for the exceptional build quality plus it is very easy to clean.

Thoroughly recommended.

BELOVED DEAD BLENDER 23 Sep 2011
By anette
I bought this - till yesterday - wonderful blender 3 months ago and have used it almost every morning for our blue-berry shakes. I loved and adored this expensive-but-seemed-worth-it blender. It has/had a most magnificent slow start button and I recommended it to everyone. I even bought a spare jar - also rather expensive at £100 - as I was worried I would drop the (glass) jar and have a wonderful, useless blender. Now instead I have 2 lovely glass jars and a still new blender that doesn't work. Yesterday it just stopped, without a warning!! I have tried EVERYTHING, but not a spark of life. We have used it so carefully; hand-washing the jar only, very few ice-cubes at a time, never over-filling it etc.. I have by now sent 5 e mails to Philips Consumer Care and haven't heard a beep back. I am ashamed of having recommended it to friends. Another reviewer seems to have had the same problem and I would like to hear how the problem was solved. I have so far used £350 on a dead blender (this is now outside my Amazon return-time-limit - by the way, Amazon responded within minutes with all Philips' contacts).

A beast of a blender 23 Oct 2010
My first blender lasted for 25 years and I'm hoping this one will see me out! It's a beast of a machine and can blend a large pot of soup for four all in one go. The auto feature is wonderful, it's starts slow and then with a sound like a turbine helicopter taking off, it keeps on powering up until the whole mix is spinning and not a bit bursting out the lid. Then you can put the whole lot in the dishwasher. In terms of functionality I think there are just enough features and no more. A range of speeds and pulse plus the wonderful auto speed. What more would you want? And it looks good too.
