Not all accessories shown in pictures are included
Great blender. Feels sturdy and every part seems to be high-quality, better than my old Oster blender.
I would have given this blender 5 stars but I take one out because the pictures and video show a juice maker and a mini-mill and additional small cup mixer. Those are not included. What comes are the blender and the food processor with the standard blade, two different grating wheels, the egg beater and the dough maker. The scale is great.
It's expensive and I might not have bought it had I known the juice maker did not come with it.
I don't even know where to get that attachment as it was not in the DeLonghi site.
Wish I could rate higher
I bought my Delonghi Food Processor/Blender in January 2011 for 2 main reasons: 1. Delonghi's good reputation and 2. Space-saving, two-in-one foodprocessor blender would take up less cabinet and counter space. It was a bit higher priced than I thought it should be but if it could save space and be functional for our fruit smoothie loving family it would be worth it. Now the 2 stars is for the blender caraffe/blade housing not the food processor parts or the motor. The food processor has worked well for me but I haven't really worked it out yet. The blender I use 7 days a week. I make fruit smoothies every morning. I do not use ice but I do use frozen strawberries, blueberries etc. I have had to retun the blender twice in less than a year because the plastic part that connects the blender blades to the motor housing strips. I believe it is bad design as I have looked at the better model blenders and they do not use a weak plastic like Delonghi does in such a demanding area...
Do Not Buy
This is the first review for a product that I have ever written. I am doing this as a public service :-) DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I purchased this product about a year ago and it has had nothing but problems. I had to replace it in the first two days because it just stopped working all together. To Home Depot's credit they were helpful in sending a new one. However, while the first one died a quick (and relatively painless) death, the second one has been dying slowly. So far, the ring that keeps the blender from leaking has lost its shape and, if not perfectly and painstakingly put into place, the blender leaks all over the place. Also, the base of the blender is rusting. And lastly, the lid to the food processor, which is a poor design as it too does not fit well, cracked. I have tried since October to get it replaced (it is now January) and it is still on "back-order". I placed a call to the manufacturer and was told that they could not do anything for me except update me on the...
