 Noisy - does not make good chutney Dec 15, 2008
Here's a couple things off the bat:
I use this blender for heavy Indian cooking and I will compare it's performance to my Aunt's 30-year old glass-jar blender (Osterizer) that she still users every two days.
1. This it is noisy. Very noisy. At the food processor setting / puree you can't hear squat within 20 feet of this thing.
- The 30-year old Osterizer is incredibly quiet in comparison.
2. This thing does not make good chutney. No matter what jar / blade/ setting you use - at the end the chuteny is never 'fine' enough and is leafy/chunky.
- The Osertizer is quiet and does the job with a glass jar mixer
3. The Cuisinart glass jar always has stuff that never reaches the blade when I am pureeing spinach / coriander.
- The Osterizer never misses a beat
From what I am reading online - the new Osterizer blenders are garbage.
I was recently informed by a friend, that one can get the Indian Sumeet brand mixer for about $100 including shipping designed for 110v. I think I am going to go with that in the next couple weeks.
BTW, I've had this blender for 2 years now.

 Good Blender, but gear broke within 2 months Nov 28, 2008
I bought this blender after comparing multiple options for a reasonably priced blender. As others have stated, the blender performance is great. I used it primarily for preparing protein shakes. It crushed the ice well and blended the ingredients into a smooth shake. Unfortunately, the gear for the blade broke in just 2 months after purchasing the product. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. The product is a good one if you can avoid what appears to be a common issue with this blender.

loud, bulky, and cheap Jul 26, 2008
I bought this 6 months ago. I am already looking online for replacement parts because the base to the blade cracked rendering the blender useless. It is so loud, I have to plug my ears and it scares my kids. The food prossesor purees everything to a pulp, even when you pulse it just a few times. The glass blender is heavy, akward, and drips all over when you pour. I paid 80$ for this at a department store, lucky it was a gift card. For a Cuisinart, I thought this would be quality. Keep looking.

Nice looks but ... Jul 13, 2008
I got this blender as a Christmas gift 1 1/2 years ago. It looked very nice and the glass jar and base were sturdy. I used it mainly for smoothies (and Margaritas over the summer; used the food processor part just a couple of times). However, I noticed that just after a few uses, it began struggling, to the point that I was adding one fruit at a time or one or two ice cubes at a time, not to bog down the motor which seemed to be in CHF. Recently, it just died ...
Now, I am in the market for another blender. After reading many reviews, I am going to purchase another Cuisinart (SB-5600). I'll keep you posted.

Love It Until The Motor Dies Jun 20, 2008
We received this blender for our wedding, and used it for blending smoothies and crushing ice for drinks. We loved it until the motor quit suddenly within the first year. The store was kind enough to replace it, and we loved our second one for almost six months, when it died. We exchanged it again, but it also died within a year. We just celebrated our third anniversary, and have gone through three SmartPower Duets in that time. I know, it sounds like we abuse the blender, ask it to blend rocks, beat it with a baseball bat, but the truth is we only use it for fruit, ice, and juice. In my opinion, a blender should be able to handle this.
I would NOT recommend this product unless Cuisinart does something about making the motor last longer than a year. You'll be buying a new one soon!
