This is great for on the road smoothies, we use it on our camping trips to have crushed ice fruit blends. It only occasionally gets stuck on an ice cube but after a shake it makes a delicious crushed ice treat
I ordered the extra part base and used it a couple times before it died. It tells me it is full of charge, but will not turned on. On top of that, I got the extra base just in time since my other base died also. So now ai have two dead bases within 7 months. Not a Happy camper at the moment.
The extra containers will give us the chance to make multiple flavors. The turquoise is a pretty color.
Jon provided excellent customer service and answered all of my questions. He helped me get the exact part I needed. My daughter loves her Blendi.
