How it works?

Fill the cup with ingredients no higher than the maximum capacity indicated. The instructions recommend 50% leafy greens, 50% other vegetables or fruit, and add water to the maximum fill line.

Screw the blade housing onto the cup, tip upside down to fit into the power base, and push down to engage the motor. When you stop pushing, the pulse action ends. Blend for no longer than one minute at a time, and if more blending is required, wait a full minute before continuing. If you need to blend more than 3 cycles, wait a few minutes for the power base to cool down before another 1-minute run.

Bottomline

I feel this is a very effective and powerful blender in the mid-range price of $100-$150, for its ability to handle some tough vegetables and fruit and create a very smooth consistency. It's easy to clean and not any louder than more powerful and much more expensive models.
