All kinds of complaints. Starting with the lid locking counter clockwise. In our world everything tightens right, loosens left. Go figure. The locking lips on the lid are 1/8 plastic. How long that's gonna last? Trying the dicing disc, a piece of carrot slid sidewards, stopped the cutting edge and nearly burned the mixer motor. While cleaning, we discovered pieces of carrot in around the shaft of the motor. We are returning this quite expensive gadget. (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)
