I got this because I wanted to eat more veges and fruits with all the work schedule. So its very easy snack in the evening (carrots, beetroot,grapes, strawberry, mint) or in the morning as a proper smoothie. Its really powerful, easy to clean and a snutty tap, which I dont use and pour out the old-fashioned way. Its a good product worth the money. Go and buy it! Live healthy!

Chop up the fruit, throw it in, ice first, solid fruit second, soft stuff to the top, pulse first use the stick to push it down, then work up to top speed............... let it run for a while (no lumps & frothy smooth)Good Machine works, well easy to clean, pulse the machine when using the tap this pushes out the mixture...............enjoy !!!!!!! we are eating ten times the fruit than before and not yet fed up................

was looking for a smoothie maker but didn't want to spend much in case it ended up little used in a cupboard. i have to say at 13.24 this is an absolute steal. i've had great fun making different smoothies. best bet is to experiment and cut things up small and don't forget to include some liquid e.g water, juice or milk for best results. i've just been experimenting as i don't like banana and most shop bought products/recipes include it as an ingredient...but i'm pleased to say results have been good. blueberry,strawberry,kiwi,yoghurt, milk and honey is my favourite so far. my advice - definitely buy this and have fun trying it out..and if you get bored its less than (..)in the cupboard not (...)!!!

My first blender! I thought it was a good way to start 2007.. eating healthy!
I've made loads of smoothies and have found it extremely easy to use.
It handles hot liquids well too.. I've even made soup with it.. its great!
The only down side to all cooking is... the cleaning up!
I found it quite hard to twist it to get the (blade) parts apart to clean.
 Russell Hobbs 12732-You are What You Eat-Smoothie Maker March 21, 2006

I have only recently purchased this item and chose it simply because I wanted a straightforward smoothie maker and trusted Russell Hobbs to be a good make. I thought the price very reasonable too. Being new to smoothie making I have had a few experiments but not with a great deal of success.I think the enclosed recipe booklet could have been better but I shall buy a smoothie recipe book.The machine is easy enough to use and take apart to clean but each time I have used it the blades do not seem to be powerful enough to completely "blend" all the fruit and there always seems to be chunks floating around which then make using the tap a bit difficult as the lumps of fruit block the flow. Slightly disappointing but maybe I need more practise.
