My favorite part of this is the portability. You can just blend it and go which makes it very convenient. Also, doing everything in one vessel is easy clean up. You blend it and then drink out of it makes it simple and less to wash. You can also get your drink ready, have everything in there and then when you are ready to blend, no matter where you are, it blend and is fresh and ready to drink.  I did that once at work, I got all the fruit and everything I wanted in it and brought it to work with me, and then when I was ready to drink it, I put some liquid and ice and blended it and then drank it. Simple, easy and fast. It blends pretty well. It is easy to use, and easy to wash.
