It is a great compact blender perfect for one person.

It is great for making smoothies and protein shakes especially for only one person so you don't have to deal with leftovers. Great design and easy to use and clean. It is compact for easy storage. Could have more power though. It sometimes gets bogged down it there is not enough liquid in the cup. I like to make fruit smoothies with it and it can have a hard time with frozen fruit if there isn't a lot of liquid in it. It still does a good job and because it isn't super expensive and bulky I would purchase it over most other blenders. Ease of Cleaning Very very easy to clean. If you don't use a dishwasher (which I recommend to not use because I think that the components will last longer if you don't) It is still a very quick wash by hand. All you need to do is clean the blade and the cup. That's it! Durability Watch out for the small pieces that stick out at the brim of the cups. It you are too rough with them they will break easily.

I feel this blender is great especially for a college student, such as myself. I can use it after workouts to make a quick shake. It is also helpful for those early mornings where you just want something quick and on the go. It works perfectly. I've had it for about a year now and have absolutely no complaints. This product is affordable and does the same thing as many expensive blenders with a similar concept. I enjoy the fact it has to-go lids as well. It helps with just putting it in my bag and going. This product is great for students, busy moms, and basically anyone who wants a fresh healthy way to get their nutrients with very little clean up. I make smoothies and shakes all the time in this blender and have never had issues with putting nuts, frozen fruits, or ice. It blends everything perfectly and has never leaked or dulled the blades. I have used regular blenders that eventually leak and become loose; however this is definitely one that I would recommend for anyone. Blending Power It blends everything very quickly. I've put ice, frozen fruits, nuts, etc. into the blender and it works great. It blends everything finely. Versatility I've used it to make everything from dips to shakes. I also enjoy the fact it has a strainer lid. It is good for drinks and juices as well. You can strain out the pulp and have all the juice. Ease of Cleaning Its great for an on the go person like me. Ease of Use Never had any issues with using it. It is easy to clean and takes very little maintenance. Just a quick wash of the blade and cup. It takes less than a minute. It is also dishwasher safe, which makes it even easier. Design It is a similar design to that of very expensive blenders but is affordable and works just as well. Durability I've had it for about a year now and no complaints. I've blended many items in this blender and has never dulled the blade. It really blends everything quickly and finely. It also has never leaked and is sealed perfectly when blending.

Great little blender

5

Best little counter top blender available (IMHO). Doesn't take up much space, could be stored in a deep drawer. Powerful motor and sharp blades that make grinding coffee a snap. Makes short work of bananas , strawberries and pineapples for your perfect smoothie. Came with 2 - 14oz cups and a smaller one to use for grinding or chopping. Blending Power Makes grinding up whole coffee beans a snap. Blends smoothies quickly and evenly. Versatility From milkshakes to crushing ice to grinding fresh roasted coffee beans for that perfect cup. This little blender is the perfect host gift, house warming gift or just a little something for you. Ease of Cleaning Wash, rinse and repeat... its that easy Ease of Use Load, twist, whir and enjoy. Design Not really much to say, it does what it does. Durability Had it for about three years now, still works! Showed the grand children how to use it and they used it all summer making milkshakes and slushies for themselves. So you know this little blender is tough.

I hate this blender!!

Don't buy this blender!! You fill it and it leaks while you are using it cause's big mess every time I use it no matter how hard you tighten the cap it doesn't help. They fail to tell you sometimes it locks up and you can't get the cup to release!! When you call customer service they tell you. And if need replacement gaskets forget that too they don't have them anymore. Blending Power It blends very well but expect a mess to clean up! Ease of Cleaning How do I say it.... be prepared to clean it a lot!! Ease of Use It's a big pain to use wish I could afford a Magic Bullet Design I thought the cup rings and lids were nice until I put one on the cup and couldn't get it back off had to have hubby do it and it was a struggle even for him

This is a product that I never knew existed.  I received this for Christmas and it is great!  If you like smoothies, this product is definitely for you.  My husband and I made a Banana-Berry Smoothie and it was out of this world.  Was the most delicious smoothie that I have ever tried.  I also used it to make my own Caesar Dressing and it was very good also.  This blender comes with a small but good recipe book, also.  It also has two different sizes of "cups" to use with the blender, which makes it really nice if you want to blend something small - like I sometimes do.  I am anxious to try this out making a nice smooth gravy.  Think it will work out great for that - or at least I am hoping, since I frequently am plagued with lumpy gravy.  I am also anxious to try out the Guacamole recipe that it has in the recipe book, as we really like that.  It is also very easy to clean up.  The cups and "lids" can go into the dishwasher and then you can just damp wipe the base.  Blending Power The blending power is great but I have found that it is best to put the ice in as the last ingredient if you are making a smoothie. Versatility It is extremely versatile. It is very good at making smoothies - to mix up gravy mixture. Works great for anything you might want to use it for. Ease of Cleaning It is very easy to clean. The cups, caps and blades can be put into the dishwasher and the base is very easily sponged off. Ease of Use It is easy to use - once you get the hang of it. The first time I tried it, could not get it to turn on but discovered I was being too easy on it and needed to rotate the cup further than I was rotating it. Design The design is very good and can be very easily stored without using up too much space in my pantry. Durability For as small as it is, it is extremely durable. I have used mine a lot and it has done great - with no problems.

The GE SIngle Serve Blender is perfect for me.

I love this blender. It has alot of pieces but the cups are all dishwasher safe. So I don't have to wash them everytime I want a smoothie. All I have to wash is the blade. There is also another blade that is grade for making homemade guacamole. This blender is perfect for me and a good price too.

We got this as a Christmas gift this year, and it already has had its fair share of use. I love this product! The only complaint I have, and I'm going to get to it right off, since it isn't a huge deal. The drinkable comfort ring that screws onto the glasses is hard to remove. It almost feels like you are going to break the plastic cup trying to unscrew it. That being said, everything else about this is wonderful. The cups don't stack inside each other very well for storage, and there isn't a container for the pieces/parts that it comes with. A Ziploc baggy works great though. There are fill lines on all of the cups, which is a huge bonus, and all of the parts are super easy to clean. There is a small recipe book included, but it isn't hard to make up your own creations. I prefer this to the larger blender we own, for the fact that we don't all have to agree on what to make. I have a 2 ½ year old who loves to cook, and with a table full of fruit and yogurt options, he thinks it is the greatest thing to pick out his own ingredients and then push the button on the blender to make his own drink. The blender base itself is actually quite small and doesn't take up a lot of storage space in your cupboard. This is great for singles and families alike, since it comes with so many different cups. A great idea, and my favorite Christmas present this year!
