Customer Review: Now that's what I'm talkin' bout!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
As other reviewers mentioned, I was a bit leary about this product after reading the negative reviews, but took a chance anyway. Much to my delight, this is exactly what I was hoping for...a (relatively) quiet blender, with enough power to blend a fruit enhanced protein shake without shutting down 2 or 3 times in the process. I can understand why those who had trouble assembling the base/blade assembly to the jar, could not do so regardless of effort. As the instructions say, there is only two positions in which this will occur properly and easily. If not in one of these positions, no amount of effort will get them to mate properly, and without damage to the plastic ring. Once the procedure is familiar, nothing could be easier. I love the slow speed, which is actually more like a "stir". Overall, the quality and performance of this machine is just what you'd expect from this brand and this price, excellent!! I would however repeat the advice of another reviewer about covering the buttons with something if you happen to be a bit careless with adding your ingredients. I used a piece of MacTac, which is decal paper/acetate, just in case I do spill something on the panel. The best solution to this 'potential' problem is to add all your ingredients before mounting the jar on the base. Or alternatively, you could lay a dish towel around the base, covering the buttons, while filling the jar... In conclusion, I'm very happy with this machine and believe you could be too as long as you're careful to line up the tabs and slots during assembly.
Also...I haven't experienced any "smell" that other reviewers mentioned.
