I have been using it for my breakfast smoothie on the go, and admittedly it doesn’t blend as smoothly or quickly as with the larger vase, so it takes a few tries to get it moving but once you get the quantity of items and order right then it becomes a great tool for daily use. I’ve also used it for my home made pesto and other sauces and dips for which I don’t like making a large quantity. I love that it includes a second cup. The only reason I don’t give it five stars is because the adapter is quite big and I look forward to a smaller one.
