This is a wonderful blender! It's SOOO powerful! I love how the pieces snap together. It has push buttons to release the handle which i like a lot better than the flimsy feeling twist turn attachment of my previous blender. I used it this morning to make cashew milk. It was quick and easy. It fit perfectly in my nut milk maker. It had a moderate, "normal" blender noise level. It gets louder at higher speed, but that's expected. ??♀️ It was super easy to clean. It's so cute! It makes me feel sophisticated and classy while using it. This is a high quality machine. I have no idea why it's priced so low, even for a sale price! My only guess is that my old one broke, and God wanted me to have a good one for my replacement! I would have happily paid full price for this. I'll never buy a different one ever again. I want another one, and probably will get another one, too. I bought this for so many reasons, and this company did not disappoint! Then they included an awesome accessories pack!??? At this point, they're just showing off! And yes, this is a real human customer; no, I wasn't paid/asked to post this. It's just that I am so impressed with this product I HAD to say something! Anyone looking for THE handheld immersion/emulsifier/stick blender, this is it. This is the one! Thank you guys for this! Its perfect!???
