Customer Review: What a Work Horse!
Summary: 4 Stars
Well so far I have had this for 2 days, so I will have to post an update if anything changes or breaks. But so far this baby has been able to make the smoothest smoothies I've ever had. If you follow the directions, and add the liquids first, THEN the fruits,etc., THEN the ice, it grinds the ice up with not even one tiny ice chip! I didn't even have to use the smoothie stick to stir it. Amazing! The only negatives to this product so far are: 1. Extremely loud; 2. NOT dishwasher safe because it's all plastic (but then again you can just rinse with hot water, add a drop of dishwashing liquid, and BLEND it clean, then rinse); 3. The serving spout is a pain. Sometimes I forget it is open after cleaning until my ingredients start pouring out into the drip tray. It also makes it a little more difficult to clean. Also, some of the first ingredient you add gets "stuck" in the spout and doesn't get mixed up. So the first glass you pour from the spout is "muck" and must be poured out. So I don't use the serving spout, I just pour from the container. The only other negative to this product is that it vibrates a LOT, and the top of the drip tray actually vibrates right off! This is probably why the manual tells you to keep your hand over the lid when you are blending (who knows what could happen?) I also don't care for the only color that I found this in, which was a brushed stainless and black - my kitchen is all white/stainless. All in all, though, I am happy with this so far. For an under $50 product, I just hope it holds up. I was originally looking at blenders that cost double (and even triple) what this cost. But I decided to give this one a try because it was built specifically for making smoothies and it has a 700 watt motor, which is much more powerful than nearly all of the blenders I've looked at. So I figured it could handle the ice very well. In that respect, it certainly lived up to my expectations.
