The small mixer looks not quite as retro, but very modern. The mixer is fairly firmly on the work surface. The jug is made of glass and should therefore be treated a bit more careful, that nothing is chipped. The cover fits perfectly. Problems with our model we had not. The controls and the rotary knob are forward placed clearly and are easy to reach in my eyes and use.
In the glass container fit 1.5l, enough good for 3-4 people. We have tried various smoothies with it, and can say that everything is working very well and very quickly. Mainly we have done our Standard smoothies. Banana, strawberry, melon, pineapple, kiwi and orange juice. The whole bit combined so that it is varied. It takes a minute to the smoothie with 0.75l is ready. More simply, we do not need. He is nice and creamy and everything has been detected.
Additionally, there is a possibility the program Crushed ice select. This works also very good. One should fill only about 500ml ice here, since otherwise the machine has to fight. Finally, the motor will not overload. Before this happens, the device switches off and paused until the engine has cooled down. Therefore prefer a little less than too much, because ice is quite hard.
The third program is P and that's Pulse button. This is to clean as you enter give something rinse water, the equipment is well cleaned with this key.
The only complaint I have, that the lid a little harder going, because it sits firmly on the glass could. But frankly rather like to have a mess at the end, because the lid is not stuck on the glass. In addition, can the Smoothie fill well only in wider glasses, otherwise it drips something. These are just little things that also have other Blenders.
All in all, practical, reliable and so far like in use. If that changes, I will inform you gladly.
