1st Place

It has as much power as you would ever need and frozen drinks come out smooth and frosty, they way they should.
2nd Place

Its base is all black though, not stainless steel, and I love it.
3rd Place

The bottom has suction cups; not helpful at all.
4th Place

It has a powerful motor that can easily break ice, plus the Blender jar is made of really thick, unbreakable material, unlike many other Glass Blender jars.
5th Place

It is very practical to have two machines in one and it takes care of both jobs very well.
