I have had this for only a brief time, but I have been impressed so far. It has blended my smoothies so well without any problems. There were no large lumps of frozen fruit left like I have had in my nutribullet that I took back to the store. What I like best about it though is the look and feel of the blender. It looks so much better than the vitamixes I have considered and it feels so solid. When I picked up other blenders in the store they just felt and looked so cheap and light. This is such a solid piece of equipment and I love that it is backed by a 10 year warranty! Other blenders are cheaply made in China and have a 1 year warranty. Thanks for making such a great product.
