Works great, easy to use, variable speed and can't wait to try the Mashed Spud attachment. Powerful yet quiet, well built and feels like it will last a long time.
However, the stainless steel blender shaft and foot, scratch the surface of whatever item your blender may be used in, I didn't think of it at the time but a tough plastic foot on the blender shaft would have been a better choice for household use. AND the power cord is stiff way too short, you virtually have to be working right in front of the power outlet to use the item unless without having to attached a power extension cord.
Really bad design flaw there. For the money, it's not too bad, but room for improvement.

I have bought several stick blenders with attachments and i have found the choppers all seem to break down. I find them great for cheese or carrots without bringing out the big food processor. The middle blade is now very hard to align with the lid, as it does not stay in place whilst putting the lid on the container.
