You're thinking "They're all so beautiful, how do I choose?" right? Well everything looks good when it's going to make your life easier and better! Let's walk through the differences and see which features will fit your lifestyle best.
Total Blender
You may be most familiar with the Total Blender as seen in Costco demonstrations and home shows (pictured in the middle). This model has been around for a while (about 8 years) and is fairly well known. It comes with the Wildside Jar (patented blender jar that flows the food toward the blade so you don't need to shove it down) and has a handful of push button programs, and a blend counter on the front that's fun to watch. Like all Blendtec blenders, the jar doesn't dis-assemble and to wash it you only need to run warm water and soap in it for a moment and then rinse, though it is dishwasher safe. It comes with a 7 year warranty and is usually priced $300-$329 in warehouse club stores like Costco, and up to $500 at other retail stores or specialty online sites.
Blendtec Express
The Blendtec Express blender (with the fruit in it on the left) is a step up. You can find it online or in specialty kitchen stores for $600 - $750. I most recently saw it at Bed, Bath and Beyond for $649. Since Blendtec has a huge staff of engineers (over 40!) they are constantly innovating and since the Total Blender has come out, they've learned a lot. Here's what you get with the new and improved Blendtec Express;
Blendtec Express Pro
And saving the best for last, the Blendtec Express Pro model. This is the Cadillac of all blenders. Blendtec makes the most advanced blenders in the world, and this is their top of the line model. It was built to withstand commercial settings like Starbucks and Planet Smoothie shops, so if you like the best of everything, this is the model for you. It retails for $1500 and is worth every penny! The strongest blender so it will blend everything from your iPad to your garden rake (see Will It Blend), and yet the sound enclosure and motor quieting baffles will let you blend without waking up the sleeping household or your neighbor! Here's the breakdown;

Save big on your blender!
As a side note, Blendtec has recently spun off a sister company called Blendfresh that makes very convenient raw, whole foods with only the water removed, ready to add to blending. They have a very compelling way to buy down the price of your blender by subscribing to the whole foods monthly. You would expect only the best from a company with a reputation like Blendtec, and Blendfresh lives up to it!
