I have a relative who bought one. It seems great, except just like the other appliances he has purchased over the years, it is currently collecting dust. I remember being told not to use the thing 'cause he "paid a lot of money" for it.
I should go over one day and throw water on it when he's not looking.
Lol sucks when that happens but it's still an awesome blender. I make hummus in mine and sauces.
