I love this thing!! It's only 600 watts but its very powerful! Twice a day, I blend fresh kale/spinach, frozen banana, frozen strawberries, frozen apples, frozen blueberries and frozen raspberries. Once a week, I buy fresh fruit and then I put the combination in a ziplock and I freeze it so that my smoothie is slushy!! I guess you could just use crushed ice but my method works best for me.
Long story short; I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and a few months later, I almost died from a severe pulmonary embolism. I needed to change my eating habits and my lifestyle so I bought this blender. I don't like veggies or fruit so this is the only way to get my required daily amounts.
My blood sugars are down, I've lost 4 pounds in one month and my energy is up so this has been one of the best purchases of my life.
I don't taste the spinach or the kale. I also blended a hand full of almonds once and they blended well also. This blender blends very SMOOTHLY!! Be sure to follow the directions.
I'm glad I took a chance on this because for the price of a vitamix, I bought and elliptical AND this blender, so I'm #Winning!! 😊
P.S. You can trust that I will update my review as needed.
