Powerful
Love this product. All the speed optionsEven a cleaning option, but I haven’t used it yet. Makes milk based smoothies like milkshakes. So good. The glass is thick & heavy, not likely to break.I make large protein shakes & just spin & remix. Makes it easier to just grab & get ready

works
Difficult to get some food pieces out of bottom of the jar but seems to blend o.k.. Not super powerful but gets basic blending done and love the glass. Not too heavy.

Great value
Works well for smoothies. It does a good job crushing ice, but I usually don’t give it enough time to crush the ice fully. I am very happy with it, it was a great value for the money. Well designed and very easy to clean, too.

Great blender at this price point
Pros:Easy to disassemble to clean (few parts)Clever cord storage to “customize” the length of cord showing by manually winding the cord underneath the blender baseThe bottom of the blender pitcher assembly is made to cover the blender base while using the blender. This deflects or “sheds” any spills away from the blender base. A nice design touch to make it easier to clean if any spills happen.The blender blades are not sharp but somehow work great. Not sharp = won’t cut you easily.Substantial, thick, sturdy glass pitcher (which can be placed in the freezer to help keep your milkshakes or cold smoothies even colder while you make them.Cons:when I put “chunky” items into a milkshake or health shake, sometimes a few chunks survive the blending. I get around this by cycling the “ice” setting a few times and it (usually) gets all the chunks.A lot of blenders have this problem, and this blender is no exception.Other:I’ve had different blenders over the years and this one is what I would call “average” for noise. Not terribly loud, but not as quiet as the more expensive models. The noise level is appropriate for this price point.

Excellent Blender
So far, so good. This is a good basic blender. With so many blenders, juicers, food processors, etc on the market, I decided to de-stress myself and just buy a good quality blender. The glass is sturdy, the motor takes on ice cubes with ease. Havenât had it long enough to comment on durability. Iâve used all the speedsâ¦all work as they should. Recommend!

Powerful and Good Value
I got this with a Black Friday deal and I really am pleased with it. I like the glass carafe and the easy to clean parts. I’ve used it primarily for soups and it does a great job at pureeing the contents. It’s pretty powerful even on the lower setting. Not tried it yet for a smoothie but I imagine it would make good work of one. It’s not a Vitamix, but a really good, affordable, easy to clean basic blender.

Works great
I use this for blending various things. When it comes to ice, it does fine with the ice your fridge makes, but if you make ice using the old fashioned trays then the cubes might be a bit too large to be chopped up well. In fact the larger the ice chunk the worse it does chopping it up. The blades blend well and hold up fine, they just don’t like the chunky ice.

mediocre blender
I bought this on Prime Day because it was inexpensive. A good example of getting what you pay for. It does a much worse job than my 30 year-old blender at simply blending things up, especially pureeing any kind of vegetables.

Used mostly for making fruit smoothies, but is clearly capable of much more. It has a good variety of blend settings and plenty of power. A very thick glass pitcher with a functional/durable cover.Good quality construction overall.Initially thought that the pitcher was leaking at the bottom, but it simply wasn’t turned tight enough. Just be sure to turn the bottom piece until it ‘locks’ in place in order to create a tight seal.

Me gusta como trabaja,buen triturado y quedan muy bien los licuados, salsas,solo la base creo que es un poco frágil,pero hasta ahora todo funciona genial.
