We are very happy with the power this blender provides when compared to our last two ‘entry level’ models. The motor on this is at least twice as powerful as the others when blending frozen fruit into a smoothie. The extra blades really get the job done! I appreciate the programmable functions built into the unit as well, the smoothie setting is 2 minutes long with multiple speed changes during the run. A couple reviews mentioned problems screwing the lid onto the smaller blender cup, it uses a reverse thread pattern-left to tighten right to loosen, this helps keep the base and cup tight during blending.Size and power is just what we were looking for. This is a great blender if you looking for one in your bar. Loved that is has its cup, so when I want to make one drink is perfect as not mess the big jar. ?This is a powerful machine that does its jobs very well.just put it in a let it work for you.Love my new smooth blender.. It makes my smoothie in 2 minutes and crush ice like a champNo tiene mucha potencia del motor una licuadora común como las demásThe deal breaker on this smoothie maker was the bottom of the base where the blades are constructed, the motor being very powerful, in my opinion once wear and tear would take place, the blades are being held by cheaply made by the base with chromed plastic pieces, no tough plastic parts were designed to make the jar last for a long time.Really good powerful blender, replacing my old Aicock high power blender. The Aicock was getting unbearably noisy and wasn't blending as well as new after about 2 years. AMZchef brand seems to be good. We have induction hob from them and it's working well so far. AMZChef blender is able to blend seeds nicely (something that Ninja 3in1 blender was struggling with). We make smoothies with flax/chia seeds daily, so the ability to blend small seeds is important to us. Every powerful blender is probably noisy to some extent, but this blender is much quieter than our previous one and even quieter than Ninja 3in1. It's quiet on lower speeds, only becomes noisy at highest settings (but not too bad, bearable). Build quality is impressive, design is industrial. The only thing I miss on it is the stopwatch. We do not need preset programs. So all in all a great blender if you are targeting about £70 budget. If you are able to spend more, I would try to get something with time and display. And if you are able to spend a lot more then I would recommend Vitamix :)This is a monster of a blender comparing it to an old 400W, 1 litre one I had. This one holds twice as much; 2 litres and the motor is almost 4 times as powerful at 1500W. I use it daily, every morning for protein shakes with added frozen fruit and all sorts. We've also used it for ice cream milk shakes and different types of soups. Each time, it's worked flawlessly and we remain very impressed with it. It's also easy to clean afterwards. A cleaning brush is supplied to aid. To look at, it looks a professional thing and sits well in our kitchen. It feels robust and sturdy and not too loud although you'll hear it more when crushing ice or frozen fruit.An essential purchase for us and are recommending it.Replacing my old blender, I bought this blender to make healthy food for my family . after used I feels it’s good.It’s pretty sturdy when high speed working and keeps low noise.The cup it is use BPA -Free Tristan plastic lighter than my old blender glass cup container but there is sturdy and no smell.The product easy to operate and clean .
