[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I I love this thing. It's powerful. It's much quieter than my previous blenders and though I'm sure all the parts were probably made in the same place as every other blender I've owned, this one just feels like it's better quality. It's easy to clean and so far, everything I've blended comes out smooth and silky.. I haven't made an actual smoothie but the vegetables and fruit purees that I've made have been amazingly smooth. My only complain is that the actual blending vase is a bit small (only 4 cups) and I am used to cook in bigger batches... I will adapt. I highly recommend this blender!

Love the blender but I don’t like the container through use becoming cloudy and dingy. Don’t if it’s the plastic deteriorating. I don’t like it the stains.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this to make a slushy while wife was watching TV, she asked when I was going to start AFTER I had finished; the cover really did work in reducing the amount of noise.

Blender is good, love the SS jars and easy clean but having problems with preset functions, not changing even after resetting.
