The mixer mixes for over a year all sorts of fruit and vegetables with us. It often is used and there is hardly anything to complain about. He gets almost all small in a short time. However, it is very noisy and smell the mix of burnt rubber. But that does not bother especially. The cleaning is not very easy, but there are worse things. All in all, the blender for about 50, - to be recommended. Much more I would not invest it.
