Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers commend the blender’s strong motor, Wave~Action® system and ice‑crushing ability, noting smooth texture scores in testing. However, they criticize the discrepancy between advertised and actual modes, the limited speed presets, and the small jar capacity, which together reduce its flexibility for more demanding tasks.
What Users Say
Everyday users praise the blender’s ability to crush ice, produce smooth drinks, and its easy‑clean design, while repeatedly noting the sturdy glass jar. Common frustrations revolve around the modest 40 oz capacity and the limited speed/mode options that feel restrictive for larger families or precise recipes.
Common Complaints
Small 40 oz jar limits batch size, only four actual blending modes despite 12‑mode marketing, limited manual speed presets, and pulse button staying on after a single press cause confusion.
