So far this is the best blender I have ever used and it sure does not disappoint. It took less than 5 minutes to make peanut butter from peanuts. I used about 5 different brands (not going to mention them) but this was the best of the best. I have made smoothies fruit and vegetable mixes and had my kids beg for more. Even guests and their kids. I am not paid nor do I have any incentive to post this except my genuine opinion.
