I bought it recently on a friend's recommendation but I am extremely disappointed by the quality of this product. It is useless for blending anything unless loads of water is added. Chopping any veggie is out of question. Apart from its performance, the design of containers is also a total failure. The base of the containers make them prone to tipping over frequently and the four useless lines on the insides of the containers make them difficult to clean and in no way user friendly. Total waste of money.
