This Braun Te-Force Blender is amazing. Has a touchscreen which makes it so convenient. I can make smoothies which are my absolute favorite, made a strawberry pineapple smoothie last night so yummy. It has so many features with a touch of a button like soup, chop, ice crush, frozen dessert, spread and smoothie my absolute favorite. Even has a clean button which is a great feature. This blender is a whooping 1600 watts of power. I can't say anything negative about my new blender.
