This appears to be a decent Blender. There isn't anything special about it, but it works for smoothies and such. There are a few things that I want to point out. The base looks like it's metal on the packaging,  but it is not. It's a metallic gray   plastic. The container however is a heavy and sturdy glass material. I really like that. I like the easy button in life,  and this Blender allows for that. It's easy to disassemble, and the container can be used in the dishwasher. It's also seems easy to use. The instructions in the box are scarce, so it takes some trial and error. However, it's a basic blender, Blender, it's not that complicated. Overall, it's seems like a good  blender for most needs.
