So I bought this because I didn't want to have to go out & buy a steamer and a blender. I was bit nervous about buying duo anything because they break so easily ( I lived through the dvd/vcr combo years). I'm just now reading other reviews & granted I've only had my a few days but it is quite impressive. It's doing everything the description says it'll do and more, I've ground millet in it, blended avocado frosting, made a smoothie and no problems. It was difficult at first I thought the processor was broken and it turns out there's this little piece that slides out before you hook it in when putting it together. Overall I am really happy right now! I really recommend it to anyone not just expecting parents.
