Review: This blender is absolutely amazing. - I use this thing DAILY to make smoothies. It literally crushes ice like it's NOTHING. It's so strong. The blades aren't "sharp" - you can actually stick your hand in there while cleaning it, and feel that they're not like a knife. And that's fine because they don't need to be! They make perfect smoothies despite not being sharp. Someone on here said that you can't tell the difference between settings 1 vs 2 vs 3 etc vs 4 vs 5 vs 6 - you definitely can. It's subtle but it's there. There are five super minor gripes I have with it that I wish I knew before I got it, BUT honestly I love it so much I don't really mind: 1. It's very loud. I mean... it's a powerful blender, so I guess that's normal? But I like to walk away so that it's not just screaming in my ear lol 2. It's really lowkey irritating trying to put the lid on (and even more annoying trying to take it off), so if you have weak hands I'd go with a different blender. It's not like the WORST thing ever, but it does make you say "ugh" when you get ready to take it off or put it on. On a side note, when you get the lid on, it's ON. it won't fly off, which I really do appreciate, as I can walk away from it while it's doing its thing (because, again, it's so loud lol). It also doesn't rattle or anything like that, so I really like it! 3. This is probably my biggest gripe: it's glass. That means when making smoothies, you have to be careful not to run it under hot water directly after. I keep almost forgetting, which makes me worried that I'll break it from the shock of the hot water or if I drop it. On the plus side, the heavy glass really makes you feel like it's a sturdy, quality product! 4. It's in that weird space between "big enough for 3 small glasses or two large glasses". It would be nice if it were just the TINIEST bit bigger. 5. Sometimes it seems more blended at the bottom than at the top. It's possible the smoothies I make are just too thick and I should add more liquid or something, but it's sliiiightly noticeable. Honestly I don't really care that much though. It's not like it doesn't blend it. All in all though I am extremely happy with it, those were just me complaining. The blender is great. If you want something that is affordable and super powerful and won't leave you with chunks, get it.
Review: 6 weeks in, I love this blender! - I love that this blender comes with a large capacity glass jar and is SO easy to disassemble and clean! It's quite powerful, no issues so far. Everything I've tried blending has come out smoothly. It is a bit louder than I remember my last blender being, but since it blends quite quickly, I don't mind this. The lid has a very tight fit. At first it was hard to get on and off for someone with weaker hands, but this became easier by the 3rd or 4th time I used it. It feels very sturdy and hefty, which leads me to think that it will last me a long time. Great blender for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the blender noisy?**
A: On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the sound of water in the sink from a faucet turned fully on and 10 standing one foot away from a lawnmower operating at normal throttle, the blender is about a 3.5, maybe 4.0 if there is ice in it.

**Q: Confused. The description says plastic jar, but the reviews say it is a glass jar?**
A: Hi...The black lower part is plastic..The canister/pitcher is a heavy glass..Its a great blender..heavy-duty....hope this helps :)

**Q: Can a mason/canning type jar be attached to the base?  Thanks!**
A: Sorry I'm just now answering you.  It does not look like you could attach anything else to the base.

**Q: does it fit to 220V? What the voltage?**
A: If you are using it on European voltage it is also 50 cycles per second, in US its 60 cycle

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy pour/clean, but hard to remove lid
*by S***S on January 27, 2026*

I want to love this blender! The vortexing blades mix super fast and well, and the design makes pouring easy. The blender jar is heavy. I love the speed clean feature. But... it's REALLY, REALLY difficult to get the lid off/on. As in: both hands, both thumbs, wrapping the rest of your arms around the base and blender jar, and maybe asking for help from passersby, then wrestling for a while. This cannot possibly end well. Also, the motor makes a burning smell, is super loud, and makes grinding sounds as if it's not going to last very long :(
