The cleaning is really easy. It is obviously not the minute announced by the pub, but in a few minutes everything is removed, rinsed and dried. This is a big positive because it encourages to use the equipment, while a difficult equipment to be cleaned quickly ends at the back closet.
Reliability will be confirmed with use, but plastics are thick and the material looks solid. Philips is usually a good brand that does not reserve surprises.
Small flaws:
- The power cable would benefit from 30 to 50 cm more.
- A small tray that attaches to the top of the opening would be good to ask the ingredients and gradually slipping. This would also avoid some projections on the top of the unit when removing the pestle.
- I would have preferred rubber feet to the suction cups, annoying when moving the unit ...
- ... And a stainless mechanism for the fastening system instead of plastic parts.
That said, nothing insurmountable, the device is really fun to use, compact enough to be stored on a work plan, effective in fruit or vegetable juice, and finally easy to clean.
