Its difficult to put into words how much I love this blender. This will definitely be a staple in my kitchen for the rest of my life. It makes eating healthier easy and fun. I love trying out new recipes and seeing what crazy ways I can hide veggies to get my boyfriend to eat, who is seriously a meat and potatoes guy. I have him eating broccoli soup and green juice. It also makes me more confident to try new baking recipes, like the flan I made for Easter family dinner. Made the texture so smoothe.
