A great space saver!

The Bottom Line: A great item that I can't believe wasn't thought of sooner.
We got this blender as a wedding gift and it has been wonderful! The blender works wonderfully independently and then if you remove the jar, a small attachment allows you to also use the base to power a small food processor. This is a perfect option for small spaces or a basic kitchen when you don't want to have 2 dozen appliances all over the place. We love to cook and with this item we can quickly switch between attachments to make sauces, dips, chop vegetables, etc without hauling out a lot of extra equipment and making a big mess. The blender itself is of excellent quality and the jar is heavy glass. It's much better than many plastic jar blenders because there's really no way you could break it.
The only downfall is that noise. We find it louder than the average blender and is very high pitched. It can be very loud and teeth-rattling. You also have to be careful to keep track of the attachment parts for the blender or else you won't be able to use the food processor.
Overall, I would suggest it highly to anyone who needs more counter space or lacks cabinet space for large appliances.
