Title: Weak and Emits Toxic Smoke
Product review: I researched this so carefully, really only wanting to make fruit smoothies faster and easier, and was I ever disappointed! I'm also disappointed that Amazon reviewed this so well. I wish I had not paid attention.When I try to make a smoothie with one ripe banana, five frozen strawberries, oj, and 3 ice cubes, the motor overheats (hot to touch), gives off toxic fumes and a little black smoke, and can't make the smoothie. I don't think that's too much to ask of a blender. I've been trying to make it work for about a year now, without success.The cheap plastic gear mechanism can't handle most jobs--I would only recommend this to someone who wants a nice container to mix their hot chocolate in.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
