Horrible... The Worst

Pros: if you only want to blend with little to no ice it, is ok
Cons: messy leaks gets stuck
"I love making healthy smoothies! I decided to get this blender before trying out the ninja. For one its heavy, it leaks and its messy. I hated the clean up after every smoothie, but I did not want to spend more soo I figured it wasn't too bad. Wrong. As I blended a strawberry banana smoothie it fell apart! The blades just went loose! I was so angry. Its not a $12 blender and even that lasted longer than the miserable 2 months this blender gave. Thankfully Costco has a great return policy and I got the Ninja and Im very happy! MUCH BETTER"

works fine

"I have used mine to make smoothies with ice cubes in it. It blended fruit and ground the ice with no problem.
I've read that if you don't put enough ingredients in blenders they don't work as well. I make about a 10 oz drink."

This blender bites

Pros: it can blend things
Cons: it leaks everywhere pouring, cleaning is terrible
Model Number: None on the machine! What a surprise!!!
"Yes it is hard to screw up a blender but Cuisinart has done it again. It looks fine but when you try to pour it goes everywhere. The liquid goes down around the base between the plastic and the glass as well. Then that pours out too. And then when you want to wash it the base is like a giant cup so in the dishwasher it holds 12 to 16 ounces of dirty water after cleaning. This thing is a train wreck. We need a new one. No more Cuisinart products. The coffee makers' circuit boards time out too requiring replacement of the whole unit. The toasters don't work properly. Avoid Cuisinart and this blender in particular."

Don't Waste Your Money

Cons: very loud, deep hole below the blade trapped items, doesn't do the job
Model Number: Smart Power Deluxe
"Usually Costco sells pretty high quality products. This blender does not fit the bill. It struggles to even chop ice evenly. With frozen berries I had to use multiple settings and quite a bit of time to achieve the best consistency I could (and that wasn't really the desired consistency). My #2 choice was the Kitchen Aid KSB560 (and only because it cost more), anyway, I picked one up today and after only 1 use am significantly more in love with it than I was the Cuisinart after two weeks of usage."

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

Pros: good for the bar
Cons: not good for choping puree etc.
"IF ALL YOU WANT TO BLEND IS A SMOOTHIE OR A MARGARITA, THEN THIS WOULD FIT THE BILL. HOWEVER, IF YOU WANT TO SAY DO UP A BATCH OF SALSA, OR CHOP VEGIES, THEN THIS WILL NOT WORK. IT DOES NOT CHOP, PUREE, OR ANYTHING ELSE A REGULAR BLENDER SHOULD DO. I WILL PUT IT IN MY BAR AND USE IT FOR MAKING DRINKS ONLY I TIRED TO CHOP UP A CUCUMBER FOR CUCUMBER SOUP, AND IT WOULDN'T TOUCH IT."
