The Smoothie Maker is super! From now on I do not need expensive and produce more Smoothies from the supermarket or organic market. Make home is not only cheaper, but also delicious! Right now, when temperatures are warmer outside, a refreshing smoothie is great :) Also, you can also super crush ice and use the example for cocktails. The device is working properly and can be cleaned in the dishwasher just fine. For little money a great product. Any time :)
