They gave it to me as a gift and I have had it for 4 years and it works non-stop every day and it hasn't had any issues at all. Despite the fact that it looks fake, it does its job exceptionally well.

It did its job well for 6 months until I decided to put basil leaves and pesto oil inside. I couldn't work with them at all. The motor got overwhelmed and almost caught fire.

... you get what you pay for in this case.

Update: On the 3rd use during grinding a small quantity of cookies, it started to smell burnt and emit smoke(!). Obviously, the motor burned out. I am in the process of returning it. I will definitely not risk replacing it with the same product.

We bought it to grind baby food. It does everything smoothly. It is a bit noisy, but the result is worth it
