We use it almost every day, do a lot of milkshakes so banana, strawberry, among other things also we grind regularly nuts so for baking or desserts etc. Even ice cubes are not a problem.
The mixer is by suckers well on the countertop.
Through a small opening in the lid can be subsequently still give food to.
The cup is here made of plastic, which comes in the price range in order.
The shakes or smoothies are hereby made a quick, easy clean throw everything and a few seconds later by mixing up if direct transfer and the blender cup, rinse only, then he is already ready for use again. You could also give him in the dishwasher, that's for knives but never good and I also take this too long because virtually daily use.
Conclusion: Decent Mixer, for little money.
