We have been using this every day for about a month now. Good quality and value for the price. It has really good power and no trouble processing all kinds of different foods, including frozen items. It comes with all the key blade types you normally need, included. Also very appealing look and feel. The 7-cup size is a good size to use for most everything. 2 Things to be careful about:(1) the blades are sharp. be very careful when cleaning, and (2) the new design has new built-in safety features which is great, however the revised design is identified on a separate insert with the documentation. Although the lid and bowl will attach and appear to be properly sealed and ready, they actually will only allow the unit to turn on if they are attached in a specific way so look for the insert and read it. We returned our first unit thinking it was defective and eventually figured this out. Would definitely recommend it. (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)
