[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using my blender for a year. Yes it does move a lot. It was weird. I got non-slip liner for underneath. The plastic cogs did wear at first but it did not effect the performance. I did tons of research as I was thinking of purchasing a vitamix and in a consumer report YouTube video this blender beat both the vitamix and ninja. I've been using it for a year now. It blends whole carrots, apples no problem. It puréed meat for my senior cat. Still works great. The trick is making sure you have the right fluids. Definitely worth trying. I love this blender. I got mine on sale Happy blending.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this about a year ago for my wedding shower. As others have said, it is very loud. Also, the plastic pitcher is impossible to keep looking nice - it gets scuffed and cloudy right away and doesn't look clean after washing. The most frustrating thing though is that it broke after about a year of use. My husband turned it on as usual but this time it made an awful grinding noise. We pulled off the pitcher to find that the fitting for it in the base had stripped completely, leaving black rubber everywhere. I'm really disappointed at how easily it broke. It was fine while it lasted, but it didn't last long.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this blender. It does a great job of crushing ice in smoothies. It's fast and very easy to operate. It also looks pretty cool on the counter. We're very happy with it.
