Mueller Smoothie Blender for Smoothies - Personal Blender for Shakes, Frozen Drinks, Baby Food & More, 15oz Travel Cup and Lid, Durable Stainless Steel Blades for Powerful Blending Performance, Red

After buying and returning two other, more expensive rechargeable brands, I decided to take a chance on this corded one.I'm both glad and sorry I did. I'm glad that it works beyond my expectations; easily producing excellent smoothies.I'm sorry because I didn't buy the slightly more expensive version that comes with an extra travel cup. The downside of using the blender cup for travel is that I'm lugging around the bottom part containing the blades that's permanently attached.Not only does this make it more difficult to drink every drop, it creates a cleaning problem. The instructions say to clean the cup ASAP after use by adding a little watter and dish soap and running the blender a few seconds, then rinse. But when on the go, I have neither the motor base nor any dish soap. The solution was easy enough, I guess. I just pour the smoothie into a travel mug so I can clean the blender immediately after use. This is probably a better solution, as the travel cup that comes with the more expensive version appears to be uninsulated.While that solution is easy enough, be advised there is no way to actually get to the blades, as they are part of the permanent base of the cup. That cost a star, as I'm worried something might damage one of the four blades or get stuck on one, like a nut, for example. Also, the instructions say to add no more than four, one inch square ice cubes. I actually had to buy a dollar store cheapie ice tray just to make chilled smoothies using some of the 10 recipes the excellent manual has in the back.The manual, by the way, is well illustrated and in English, not a translation. The manual lists the manufacturer with a CA address, but one reason I decided to try this blender is because the name suggests it is a German company. The manual confirms this, because the U in the name on the cover has the two dots above it as is common in German.Would I buy this again? Probably not. This was my first experience making or even drinking smoothies. I didn't realise that smoothies tend to contain a lot of foam, so I'm out of smoothie before I'm satisfied. My next one will be at least a 24 ounce one. But for the price, and as long as you don't want a big gulp size smoothie, this inexpensive blender is a gem.

Great blender as soon as I got it I try it out amazing, blends all the ice and fruit well great speed. But before you use it make sure you lock the cup in place, or it won't turn on which is a great safely Feature for me safely first. Especially if you have kids they can't turn on the blender amazing item I highly recommend this item price was great. Also the best protein plant base in the picture

Very convenient little blender, works quite well.It takes a very little space and does a nice job of blending different liquids or vegetables or fruits or whatever you decide to make for your smoothie

This is bought for gift. That person love it to use for every morning protein smoothie. It was easy to use and quick to ready. easy wash in washing machine.

Works perfectly, makes great smoothies! A little loud but that is to be expected with any personal blender, not an issue. I have no complaints!

This blender is very affordable compared to similar products and works well for making smoothies for one or two people. It is compact, lightweight, and easy to carry. Although you need to hold the button the whole time and it is quite loud, I still think it performs really well for the price. Great value overall. The photo shows the red bean soup I made using this blender to blend cooked red beans.

I love this blender but i am on my third one. The plastic cog at the bottom of the cup eventually melts and stops functioning. It is still the best blender for daily shakes. I use it twice a day and it lasts a little less than a year I am looking for a cup replacement because the motor still works. It seems that this flaw should be corrected by the company.

I would say this is a pretty great blender it is super easy to work and has a really great quality and speed I will say the only thing is it is really small I feel like in the picture it does make it look bigger then it actually is but so far me and my family have had no issues
