Our Verdict

Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher Multi-Function

Beautiful High Performance Blender with Touch-Activated Display

The Beautiful High Performance Blender with Touch-Activated Display is better than the Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher Multi-Function. It has a much better build quality, makes a smoother blend with fibrous ingredients, makes snow-like crushed ice, and does a better job with recipes like nut butter. That said, the Hamilton Beach is much quieter and has removable blades that make it easier to clean by hand.
