Pros & Cons
Pros
It is very sturdy, very easy to clean and is amazingly fast at pureeing anything we've tried so far. This is very durable as well. Fast and easy.

Like black & decker, this is a skunked once praiseworthy, they're to be avoided.
The weak plastic connection to the drive shaft is a notable shortcoming. The high torque eventually strips this cheap, plastic gear and the entire tool and the pile of wonderful accessories, become totally useless! Then it turns into a piece of junk.
