Pros & Cons
Pros
Great option for on the go - easy to pack up and take away with you. I'm disabled and it's made food prep much more accessible for me.
It's small and doesn't take up a lot of space on the counter tops or in the cupboard. I now use my old one to make blender compost with my food scraps, and this new one is just as powerful as the old one. The blender is easy to use.
Let frozen fruit 'thaw' for 30 secs - this improves flavour and texture. It really chops veggies perfectly. Grinds coffee beans and turns my oats into oatflour.
Cons
I find it noisy. It's tiny and the blades are the competely wrong type for grinding. My main issue is that the blade doesn't actually lock in. I find this inexplicably dangerous.
Whoever designed this should be sacked, it's awful. Absolutely disgusted. Bottles are filthy!
But it can't cope with kale. One kale leaf pre-chopped is all it can manage at one go.

It has a small footprint, so we leave out the bottom half on the worktop, and the rest lives in a slatted tupperware thing, so ... Read More
Competitiveness
)the lids for bottles work just fine - i personally tend to leave it off and use a resuable straw.
Not so good with chopping up chocolate for use in a smoothy as chunks come out slightly larger than expected.
- cheap, very cheap compared to other models, with comparable results.

When grinding spices i find the blender is the one that does the job however unless you have a large quantity of spice the resulting masala is quite coarse

If you add ice id suggest getting an ice cube tray that makes smaller ice cubes as you can only blend for up to 30s at a time then you have to wait a minute so that you dont overheat the motor

The mini chopper is nice for smallish quantities like making houmous from a tin of chick peas
