The Blender and accessories are made very well, sturdy,  and nice looking. It is great for making smoothies, mixing cake batter and chopping different types of vegetables. It’s super powerful, very lightweight and easy to handle and use. My old Blender was pretty heavy, so I was excited to see how lightweight this one was. It's easy to grip. The whisk is extremely handy.  It's easy to switch out parts on and off. It's a single click of the button to switch the Blender to masher. I love it! There is an anit-splashing technology that prevents from food from spilling when working with liquids. Easy quick cleanup and most of the items can go in the dishwasher.  I highly recommend this product.
