I'm no blender expert, but this blender gives what you might expect for $30: The ability to blend liquids and softer foods.
Unfortunately, my wife and I like frozen smoothies, which require blending ice and frozen fruits. This blender (and every other $30 blender I've used) is not really cut out for it.
The dispenser would probably be a good feature--it's solidly built and sounds useful--but again, it's not as useful for a chunkier, ice-based smoothie.
Overall, I had hoped it could handle frozen things a little better, but other than that it's a perfectly fine blender.
What's great about it: Price, basic blending abilities

The plastic part that contains the blade which connects to the base is not very tight. The cord is short, could be a little bit longer. Other than that, its a great product. I tried by putting in different fruits (banana, orange, apple, etc...) and a little water and the blend was good and the dispense was great. Cleaning was simple. Also added ice cubes (1"x2") and they got crushed fairly well.

I have had other blenders, this blows them out of the water. I use it daily to make smoothies using frozen fruit and ice cubes and it works like a dream. the spout is great for serving and the whole thing comes apart for very easy cleaning! highly recommend

What's great about it: it works really good as a blender. dispenser assembly is special
What's not so great: it is not convenient to open the lid

My current Smootie Maker of 10 years finally quit on me. I was searching for another one and came across the Hamilton Beech Wave Station. I love it, great price, was actually cheaper than Smoothie Maker. I highly recommend it. Also makes a great milkshake

I am really pleased with my blender. It makes excellent smoothies. It crushes the ice extremely good. I personally like the short cord, it is more convenient. I also bought one for a family member as a gift. I am convinced she will be very happy with the quality and how good it works. I know she will really like the spout, it is one of her favorite features of a blender. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend or family member.
What's great about it: It make excellent smoothies. It works really good
What's not so great: I do not have any complaints at this time.
