Can the plastic jar withstand hot soup -for pureeing into creamy soups like Cream of broccoli?

Hi I have this blender but have never made anything hot with it. My Blender is over a year old and is still good with no breakage it was only used for cold juic smoothies. Also I cannot fill it to the top. Only seems to work okay and mix and puree best at half full. so you may want to consider that as well

Yes... not a problem adding hot soup to the blender. I start with a small quantity and the top on to get the blades turning, then add in the rest of the soup.

I have never put any hot liquid into it but I would not buy it because it leaks.

I'm not sure what the owners manual says, but I use mine for hot soups occasionally and it's held up fine

My daughter takes soup for lunch almost every day for the past year or so...the leftover soup is still relatively hot when she gets home and other than a few dings, it held up great...and til the lid that holds the spoon fell off the top shelf in the dishwasher and was resting on the heating coil at the bottom. It melted a hole in the side of the lid...but that isn't Thermos' fault. I was looking for a replacement lid online but couldn't find one so I just bought a new thermos.

The All Clad Immersion Blender has a stainless steel shaft and sharp blades. It would be fine for heavy soups. I wouldn't recommend blending ice with it.

Can't imagine it wouldn't. Soup in jars seems like it would work really well. You'd need a jar adapter. If you wanted to freeze them, would probably want a baggy.

This blender is not good for hot items, it will explode out of the top because the velocity is so high. It is better to wait till your soup has cooled then try blending it and reheating it in another manner.

I have only used it for ice cream thus far. It is not insulated, so it would not keep the soup warm for a prolonged period of time. Also, it will not protect your hands very well from the heat of the soup inside.

The jar itself is a hard plastic, however the pull back handle (the purple part shown in the product image) is NOT heat resistant and will warp.

If you aren't too harsh with it, the Ball or other canning jar lids open easily and are not damaged. As with anything, if you are rough with it, then it can be damaged.

That Depends How You Manage It. When I Blend Hot Stuff I Make Sure The Top Covers It Well And In Addition I Put A Heat Protecting Glove On The Top And Hold It Hard. The Jar Is Fine But The Cover Is Plastic And Heat Makes It Loose And Soft So You Could Potentially Burn Yourself. Just Be Cautious.

It is plastic and I have blended hot food in it.Not sure I would put it in Microwave to reheat food.Metal mixer would be deterrent.Other smaller containers fine.

It is plastic. It might be good for soup but the oatmeal overflows so it's not good for that. They do have a soup cup that I use that holds about one can of soup. I actually returned this item.

NO! The plastic handle would melt from the heat!! You need a cast iron skillet, the handle will take the heat.

Not for soup. There is an inner container that should be okay for pasta sauce.

The owners manual only says, "do not put boiling liquids in blending jar". The jar is plastic but I don't believe the water temperature in your dishwasher would hurt the jar assembly.

No. I use a regular thermos lunch box and put soup in this jar with a large spork, sandwich, soda, and a couple of candy bars.

You can certainly put something warm (or even relatively hot) on it, but the plastic will melt if comes in contact with hot metal. I know from experience, because I have a marred corner from letting it touch a stove burner.

I haven't because I don't think it's deep enough to really cook soup (except for perhaps a very fast-cooking type of soup.) The flavors and ingredients wouldn't really meld, IMO. Also, although the lid seems very secure and tight, I'm not sure it would seal in the cooking ingredients well enough to do the slow-cook thing for several hours without losing too much liquid.
