I bought this almost 2 months ago and have loved it! WE've used it for a variety of things, but mostly for breakfast smoothies. It blends everything to perfection. Sometimes it gets air pockets, but once you push the stuff back down, it's fine. I've even used it to make some dough for breadsticks, as well as grinding my own wheat for bread!
We have this machine at work and I desperately wanted one for my home. I use it for smoothies at work but had no idea how versatile it was until I received it and read the book. Now I use it all the time! It still makes amazing smoothies but now I can do so much more! Just a warning though, it's a very loud machine. Too loud to use at home when my family is sleeping.
We got ours at Costco. It has been fabulous, and even better than we saw on ads and youtube. Saw it on youtubers Carl&Jingers channelwh e n they toured the Blendtech factory. They used to be Phamdamily or Olinselot....give them credit for educating us about your prosuct.
I have owned a lot of different name blenders in my life but by far this one is the best and hopefully the last one I will own. It exceeds all of my expectations. The price is high but well worth it. Would recommend to anyone. Best price is Sam's Club.
