The machine was very easy to assemble and compact. I only used it twice to make hummus before returning it. The recipe required two minutes constant purée, and it started to over heat and smoke.

Prefect for your small batch processing needs. I have two complaints though: 1. The machine makes a burning smell pretty fast; like it's difficult for it to process even the softest of foods (i.e. hummus). 2. Trying to separate the plastic pieces of the blades is a nightmare. They get stuck near constantly. These are two things that obviously don't deter me and I enjoy the machine quite a bit!.
I would recommend this to a friend!
