On the plus side, it has a heavy glass jar (not thin plastic!), and definitely seems to have enough power. It also has a "wave" design feature, which is a raised portion of the jar's interior, that gravity-feeds the contents down into the blades, which reduces, if not eliminates, stopping the blender to scrape down the sides. The one negative is, the lid is constructed from smooth plastic and is press-fit into the jar -- not screwed or snapped in. Because it's so slick, it tends to work its way out of the jar as the blender is running. Putting a small weight, such as a can of soup, on top of the lid helps to keep it in place, but if you need to add ingredients through the lid, this method is rather inconvenient. One other cosmetic issue: The "stainless steel" on the sides of the blender are plastic plates.

I haven't yet needed to use the extra food processor jar, but with only a 3-cup capacity, I'll probably end up just chopping the ingredients by hand. However, because of the well-made glass jar and the amount of power, I would still recommend this blender.

Like the heavy glass container and 750 watt motor.. Would highly recommend this appliance... Yes (7) No (0) Report Yes (7) No (0) Verified purchaser Verified purchaser I bought this combo for making my morning nut and berry smoothies. I chop the nuts and seeds in the chopper the night before, then soak overnight so they are soft in the morning. The blender does a great job of preparing the smoothie with frozen berries and the softened nut pieces. I do chop Brazil nuts by hand first before putting the pieces in the chopper, and I do not put whole almonds in the chopper either. I am leery of wearing out the motor like I did with my previous blender, a Black & Decker Cyclone. Walnuts chop fine in this chopper, however. My husband has started using the blender now to make his own fruit and yogurt smoothies and loves it, too. The only issue I have is the amount of noise on high speed; low speed is fine.

I love the smaller food processor for making salsa and eliminating tears with onion chopping. This really comes in handy! This is a really nice blender. I, once, had a larger Cuisinart food processor/blender combo that I spent nearly a $100 (on sale) & this easily replaces it. I actually like the lid on this one better. That leak-proof lid makes it so much easier to store blended drinks in the refrigerator and eliminates accidents. And the flip top lid is a great idea. My expensive blender combo was not as nice or simple to work. And this blender is made from heavy glass, just as my Cuisinart was. Yes (9) No (1) Report Yes (9) No (1) Verified purchaser Verified purchaser The blender and food processor are great. Does everything I want them to do. Really love the duo combination. (Rakuten or whatever that weird new name). It's $ 4-7 cheaper with free shipping here (if you buy $49 or more) Anyway you can't beat this price !!! It came with glass blender and a food chopper (plastic) but the motor is 700 watts !!!

Majority of the blenders are only 230 - 350 watts so with this blender, I'm sure it will last and I can keep on chopping the ice for my smoothies !!!! Yes () No (3) Report Yes () No (3) Verified purchaser great product and great value. love that it works as a processor as well with an additional dish. Yes (9) No (0) Report Yes (9) No (0) Verified purchaser Verified purchaser I cannot really rate durability yet. I bought it to make smoothies, new diet craze, and it works great. To clean you just put in some detergent and run it. I have not used the chopper yet but all pieces are sturdy and made well. Not flimsy at all. I love the shorter shape of the container, it seems to work better than the old blenders.
