The style of this blender is sleek. The stainless steel is very nice. It has a glass pitcher which is very nice instead of the typical plastic. There's a very fitted rubber gasket style removable lid and it pours precisely. There are 3 speeds which is ample for any item. It also has 3 modes for a variety of drinks such as martini or smoothie. The power crush truly crushes ice very smoothly. I think that's one of THE most important aspects of a blender, especially when it comes to someone who makes lots of smoothies.It has a innovative look to it and makes my kitchen look fresh! Highly recommend! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
