Customer Reviews

Good Quality Blender
Overall very pleased with new blender. Got a great deal as it was a Gold Box Special.

Pros:
1. Completely dishwasher safe.
2. No need to "lock" pitcher in place.
3. Nice capacity

Cons:
1. Limited number of speeds (but who realy uses 12 different speeds anyway)

Best of the blenders that I have tried
We love this blender. It has a heavy plastic container so no chipping in the sink. The shape of the container forces the contents to move as the blades are going resulting in a great smoothie.

awesome
