Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Pros: 1. It makes excellent smoothies and frozen drinks 2. It doesn't cost as much as a 50" HDTV 3. It is a blender, not a suite of blending technologies. 4. When you hit someone in the temple with the thick glass pitcher, they stay down. They don't get up and stab you a minute later while you are catching your breath. Cons: 1. It is LOUD. An assailant could easily sneak up behind you unheard, keep your head on a swivel and be ready to grab that thick glass pitcher. I can't imagine what a person would do with a blender other than making smoothies and frozen drinks so if you decide to get creative you may or may not be disappointed. Ice cubes, rum, coconut milk, pineapple juice, pause all conversations, press the "Frozen Drink" button, deal with the ROAR, enjoy a silky smooth piña colada with no ice chunks clogging your straw like the drinks Steve made at that one party with a substandard blender.
