Title: Cuisinart quality?
Review: I cannot comment on the actual performance of this item because after 1-2 minutes of smooth operation, it began making a loud chattering sound accompanied by a vibration and a strong metallic odor which emanated from the machine. I know that bearings sometimes fail prematurely, but this item certainly did not meet the high standard of excellence that I associate with the brand. Also, nowhere, not on the box, not in the manual, not in the description on the Cuisinart site nor Amazon could I find the wattage of this blender. Perhaps it is so weak that no one wants to admit it?
Is the review positive or negative?
