Pros:
It is quite solid.. the plastic jug is thick and durable - wouldn't crack easily, feels very secure, and attaches well to the base unit.
Base unit has anti-slip stuff on the bottom of it.
Very affordable, and comes with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty.
Easy to clean.
Cons:
Only handles soft things well - it can blend a fruit smoothie just fine, but I CANNOT handle ice cubes...pretty dissapointing.
It's very noisy. More so than other models, and even when it's only blending liquids/soft things.
My Opinion:
If you just want to juice up some fruit smoothies now and then I would recommend this blender - for that purpose it's affordable, and easy to clean. BUT if, like me, you want to be able to make an ice blended smoothie, or anything tougher than juice, you should stay well away from this model. I wish I'd known it couldn't even handle a few ice cubes!
