I am delighted, ideal for soups, you put the ingredients in the blender you select and it's done more for more than 2 hours the soup stays hot. I also made compotes it's perfect, I made purchasing this blender for about 1 month and I have to say I'm delighted I use it almost every day, there are long as I wanted a heated blender but I must say I do not regret my even if it is expensive purchase.
