I have not ordered from amazon this mixer, but not least the good reviews here have convinced me to buy it. And we are very happy with it! This part is quite heavy, massively - and the glass jug - and the power of 1000 watts motor is very good. The glass jug and the quite sharp and stable therefore coming knives are easy to clean - and after I had figured that one must turn on only in the glass jar, the blade holder and the whole thing just plugging into the engine block (or later pulling upward) , there is no more mess. For since the description in my opinion was not as clear here, I initially had always turned the jug to take out, which meant that liquid heraussuppte ... but it was as I said my fault. The mixer has, as far as I can tell so far, no. :-)
