Bought it online after a conventional blender died - great power and much more efficient with multiple sets of blades (not just on the bottom). The little suction cup feet on the bottom of the blender are an absolute must - although it makes it harder to move from place to place - the base lives on the counter and the remainder hides away in the cupboards. Haven't yet tried the processor portion of this setup - but super excited to have the two-in-one functionality!
