After having my daughter I’ve been trying to get back into making smoothies every morning. This is perfect for that! The size is great for a single serving and having the ability to take it on the go is so handy. It’s quiet and lightweight, the blades work super well. I was able to blend through ice and frozen fruit with no problems. My husband’s even taken it to work on multiple occasions. I do wish that there was a way to remove the cup from the base while drinking it, but it’s not a big issue.
