REDUCED SOUND ELECTRIC APPLIANCE

An electric appliance designed with sound dampening features to reduce noise generated by the appliance including a base assembly having at least one floating mount for attaching to a motor, each floating mount allowing for horizontal movement of the motor but preventing vertical movement relative to the base assembly; a muffler assembly including an inner muffler wall having a plurality of throughholes and an outer muffler wall connected to the inner muffler wall to form a muffler channel therebetween that at least partially surrounds the motor; a fan positioned within the base assembly for circulating air along a very specific path therethrough; a plurality of baffles positioned in the airflow path to reduce noise; and a double walled mixing jar assembly attachable to the base assembly including an air gap between an inner mixing container and an outer jar wall for reducing noise attributed to the blending action.
