Title: Can't Handle Anything Heavy Duty Like Frozen Fruit Or Nuts
Product review: The motor does not carry enough power for making smoothies with frozen fruit or for pureeing nuts with liquids. We have had the plastic attachment that the blade is attached to break 2 times now from trying to blend up a simple smoothie, and break once trying to blend up a cup of almonds with 3 cups of water. The thing starts smoking and then locks up and the plastic parts crumble into bits. We are finally through with this blender (can't believe we didn't get rid of it sooner). We ended up paying over half of what we bought the thing for in replacement parts and now that the third blade assembly has crumbled we are through!! We will never buy another Cuisinart blender again because of this experience!! We have a Cuisinart coffe maker, coffee grinder, ice cream maker, food processor and waffle maker and have never had problems with any other Cuisinart products, but they obviously have not perfected their blenders for heavy duty usage.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
