I’m completely OBSESSED with this blender and food processor. I make protein smoothies with dates in them fairly regularly and my old blender never blended up all the date pieces so I would have chunks. This blender blends everything so smoothly! I also make hot chocolate sometimes and the powder never mixes all the way with the milk so I tried blending the powder and milk in the blender and it works!! All the powder gets mixed into the milk so there’s no weird clumps of powder where it didn’t mix. I used the food processor for blending up my butter chicken masala too and it worked great! My new favorite appliance!!
