So I'm kind of obsessed with this blender! I was skeptical about the power of it but it works great for my green smoothies. I prepackaged frozen fruits, greens, chia seeds and honey in mason jars (a weeks worth) and every night I take one out and put it in the fridge to thaw. All I do is add milk in the morning and use this blender and it comes out smooth and delicious. One thing to note, if you screw the adapter on too tight it can be a little bit of a struggle to get off but not too much of a problem. I was just more aware how tightly I fastened it.

Guys, this thang is PERFECT for Bulletproof coffee! (See photo!) I absolutely love it. Grinds coffee well, too (in small batches). Powerful, small, works wonders with Mason/Kerr/Ball jars. I actually find it works much better than blenders I have had in the past: the small size (of the mason jar) makes the contents all very close to the blade and thus gives an even blend. My protein shakes and guacamole so far have turned out superbly (and my BP coffee). Blends hot liquids (coffee) beautifully without fear of exploding from steam pressure or anything.

This little unit barley takes up any counter space and is great for a quick batch of salsa, grinding whole spices and smoothies in the morning.
