~~[For Product Review Read Description]~~ Song: Dj Tiesto & Hardwell - Zero 76 (8/18/2012 - was told that the song sounds really distorted. Not sure how it became like that, sorry about that) In this video, real time making of smoothie. While making, had to get up and get the milk from the fridge. Recently purchased this blender for the sole purpose of making protein shakes, smoothies and protein smoothies. Bought this at my local Walmart for $15.88+tax Made only two smoothies so far, same ingredients as this video. I couldn't really find any videos of someone actually making a smoothie. In making this video, the frozen fruit "is rock solid" which was just pulled out of the freezer before making. The reviews I have read on amazon, walmart and other sites were mainly positive. There were a lot of negative reviews on how people were getting clumpy smoothies or it was not blending up frozen fruit all the way. Clumpy = not enough liquid Blending frozen fruit = pulse, don't hold it down There is a reason why Hamilton Beach put "Pulse" under the button. Not "Blend". I pulse through out majority of making the smoothie and then hold it down to blend just for a couple seconds. Some reviews I read that, the cup jammed and was not able to unscrew from the base. The only reason I can think of is that the cup was not "locked in" all the way. Otherwise, all in all, I think the tiny blender is awesome. I was originally contemplating between a Magic Bullet and a Ninja Prep Pro (new version). This was definitely a good choice. Enjoy
