This is a handy dandy blender to have! I tend to have troubles eating sometimes, but can always handle a smoothie. This one is perfect for me. It’s 16 oz, so I know how much I make every time, unlike a large blender. I always use fresh fruits/veggies, a splash of almond milk, and some little ice cubes. It blends perfectly! It charges up and I don’t have to worry about it for a while. I just charge it every Sunday to be ready for the week. And the top comes off that I just drink out of that. Love it!
