I won the Cuisinart dual food processer and blender combo at an auction through my office. I had recently broken my inexpensive blender so I was very excited about getting such a good quality blender, with a trusted name like Cuisinart. When I got home I opened the blender to make my daily green smoothie and was a little disappointed. First, the blender container was much smaller than I was used to working with (about half the size of the previous blender I had). Second, the cuisinart dual blender did not seem to have nearly as much power as my old blender had. The Cuisinart did not quite turn the greens, pineapple and ginger into a smooth smoothie consistancy. There was still a lot of "pulp" type material in my smoothie, which didn't make it go down smoothly.
I did try to use the food processer part of the cuisinart when making homemade pickles...you have to slice up the cucumbers into even slices so I thought this would make it easy. Well, all it did was slice off the tip of my thumb when I tried to put it on. It was very disturbing. I read and re-read the directions and am a very handy person, if I do say so myself, but I couldn't get the cuisinart put together.
I am happy to have a blender and found this one to do a decent job, but I would not recommend anyone spend the retail price on this....my $19.99 Oster blender from the local Target did much better.
