I ordered the blender because I wanted something high quality, which I can puree decent home-cooked baby food. So various ingredients together in a large pot with little liquid - and it should be fine porridge. Works just fine. Even as tomato soup and Co. has already successfully prepared the mixer ;-) The blender is removable and can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher. The operation is simple and effective. I would buy it again and again - and now he has become even cheaper again, as I've just seen ...
