Title: Smart Stick doesn't hold up
Product review: I have been joyfully using this "stick" for making fruit smoothies, gazpacho, and zucchini soup for more than a year. That is until last week. It started squealing and is now shot. It's never seen an ice cube or anything solid enough to jam the blade. The plastic "teeth" on the spline are gone and the shaft moves 1/4". If I had spent twice the amazon price and bought a Kitchen Aid I would still be smiling.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
