Best smoothie blender
I bought the blender to make daily smoothies with. My regular blender was such a chore and way too big for what I wanted. I had used a Bullet in the past and that was useless. The Cuisinart is worth every penny. What a dream. Put all the ingredients in the to go cup, blend, and you are off and running. I have used mine every day for the last month. That's how easy it is. And it takes up so little space on the counter and in the cupboard. Loving it!

Nice, but not functional.
If they could put a 1000 watt motor in it like the Ninja, this system would be a perfect example of demolition!
We tried to use it for smoothies and milkshakes, but any small amount of pressure would stop or stall the blender and yes, I did use the pulse recommendation for ice.
Pros:
Great looks
Lightweight
Space Saving/Small footprint
Cons:
Motor needs to be upgraded!!! (Perfect, if fixed!)
Plastic fogged and looked terrible.
Can't handle anything other than soft fruits
I wanted so badly to keep this combination of looks and convenience, but the performance was so terrible it just had to go back.
Take note Cuisinart... product quality is declining steadily, try to upgrade your product and for the love of Pete, get your customer service upgraded! I'd buy more of your products if I could get great customer service.

Great little machine
I love this blender. It's super easy and convenient to use. I've had this over a year and it works great at making smoothies and grinding small food items. It has pretty much replaced my regular blender as its right on my counter. It looks good too! Looking forward to using it for preparing baby food. So far I have definitely gotten my money's worth.

light duty
Just returned it after 2 months, with a burned out motor. My wife and I used it 3 to 4 times a week each to make morning smoothies. After a bout a month the motor would intermittently change speeds on occasion while using. Then it started to perform noticeably slower, and finally nothing.
The 4 cups were nice to have, and sized just right. Although the travel lids fit poorly.
We decided to upgrade to the Ninja, which has a motor about 3 times more powerful, and similar sized cups with better lids, but only 2 cups.
The Ninja locks the cups in place, while the Cuisinart would start shacking and knock the cup off if it wasn't held in place.
