 - Keeps breakingI really wanted to like this blender. Bought it in December '07. It does a great job making smoothies, but, as others have said, the plastic teeth connecting the blade to the drive are not built to last. I've already replaced the blade assembly twice (in 7 months ownership). Braun is willing enough to send the replacement part, but wouldn't it be better to fix the design flaw so they didn't have to? Once my 1 year warranty expires I will be replacing the unit. Rating:  - Probably not worth the troubleWorks well, breaks regularly. The motor is quite powerful, but the drive train is plastic and breaks. One can purchase replacement parts, but the third time you buy a ten dollar part you begin to question the total cost. And it may take several weeks to get the part. Not recommended Rating: - Reviews were decieving, personal experience expensiveMy husband bought this blender for me due to top billings from Consumer Reports. The first blender burned out the motor upon its first attempt at usage out of the box. Braun replaced the motor and we tried again but the second motor didn't even make it a whole year. The blender really never worked very good. It couldn't move contents efficiently, the blades would bind up, and we would get the occasional messy surge. We're through with this product and will be moving on to another make and model but I just hate contributing more new junk to the landfill! Not many things are made to the quality I expect anymore! Rating:  - Braun MX2050 BlenderI have used the blender now everyday for a month and have found it to be exactly what I needed. Fruit smoothies are my breakfast of choice and this appliance works beautifully on them. I also made a great hollandaise sauce with it. 5 stars. Rating: - Better than my professional blenderThis blender makes the smoothest drinks I have ever made at home, and works better than my $250 blender at work. What a deal!
