4 plus 4 by 2 = 4!

Cutters: Works quite effectively and evenly. The plastic is high quality and spread no pungent plastic odor. The star trigger has 2 reasons: firstly penetrates their design easily some mass (fruit pulp, oily pesto, etc.) through the opening in the middle to bottom. This increases the cleaning effort again. The latter is already very high: with shell, inner cover, outer cover, diameter and -as said- just usually also the base part to the often penetrating particles, you have to wash every 4 to 5 parts. This robs time and consumes up some water ...

As the main criterion, the function per se, but really little reason to complain about has, I think 4 points for correctly.

Mixer: It is even more efficient! The sensor works perfectly and comes with a variety of foods (nuts, fruits, milk shakes, potato pieces and many more) wonderful cope; meat I have not yet experimented. My reason for the withdrawal of a star may be very subjective, but at least in my view, already relevant: the shape and position of the function knob led to the erroneous assumption that this would mean to unlock the blender. Result: After mixing I had already opened the lid, and believed, with operation of the knob to loosen the attachment to remove it can - a mistake! Instead, he lay awake again going on, and much of my kitchen were a mix of tiny chopped carrots in orange juice, finely seasoned with very little sugar and a pinch of cinnamon, decorated ...

Of course there was stupidity in the game - a lack of concentration, also due to the fact that I was not yet firm with the then brand new device. But if z. B. Visitors who want to help cook in common, make intuitive to create on the device, or to use even after a very long "resting phase" the blender again, which could very easily happen again. I think it should technically not be possible to fire up the engine as soon as the lid is unseated. Such safeguards include in powerful machines, more so if they have sharp knives, in my view it! So z. B children -or simply bowl as I- are latently endangered and threatened at least one more cleaning action.

The cleaning effort in "proper use" I find, however very acceptable when blender, since only 2 parts are clean. The knife is indeed firmly anchored in the ground and can not be removed; Container and knife were but so far always very clean.

And again: Because the function itself is really a 1, I forgive 4 stars.

The design of the sets I find very appealing. Next to it is the "colleague Yogurteo" - same brand and same styling - it looks really good.
