Please tell me that's not the real price for what is essentially a few small blades in a cup attached to an electric motor
It's, like, a really good motor...
Well.
They say it is.
It's an infernal machine. My wife bought it secondhand for pennies and is making smoothies for kids with it. But damn at full throttle it sounds like a jet engine. Whenever it stands on the kitchen counter I carefully tiptoe around it scared it will suck me in and pulverize me into fine tomato paste.
Oh you'd better not ask about mine, then :x ~~Mine retails for about $3k new.~~
Bought it barely used for a really good price.
