I absolutely love this blender. It is a bit tall, but i knew that going in, so its height isn't a problem for me. In fact, for the price—especially with the discount i got to bring it down to $11—it is a very, very good blender.
My only critique is the "program" feature, which is just a marketing gimmick. The three different "programs" are literally just three different timers (40, 50, and 60 seconds). It adds no real value and makes the two-button setup unnecessarily complicated when a single button could have done it all. The battery level indicator itself is great to have, though.
However, the real gold with this personal blender compared to others is that it has 12 blades. Twelve. And that is fantastic. It does a brilliant job of chopping. I still have to give it a little shake to keep the food moving up and down, but those 12 blades are really lovely. It’s an amazing deal for what you pay.
