So I open the box into this beautiful blender. It is gorgeous at 1st glance. So the 1st test that I want to do is crush ice to really see the power, and boy oh boy it can crush some ice into just nothing it's amazing. The creatures are wonderful nothing seems confusing to do. We love smoothies on our house so ofcourse that's what we wanted to make.ot blended beautifully and so quick. Milkshakes anything that you can think of this will do it with minimal effort this is a super winner [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
