This blender gets the job done, however, if I was in the market for another blender, I would opt for something else. Though it blends just fine I find it a bit of nuisance to clean as the blender contains a few parts and sometimes food gets stuck in crevices and can be hard to clean.

This is the first blender that I bought, from Homesense for a reasonable rate. I love the deep red colour, which is very popular in kitchens these days. The blender works well at making smoothies. It is not good enough to substitute as a food processor (a couple hummus attempts taught me this), but I find it easy to use, clean, and look at!
