This Pensonic PB-3205 blender has 1 speed, and comes with a stainless steel blade that will blend, can easy to crush or cut the food, But be sure to cut the small pieces of food first if not need to blend for a long time and cannot blend it very Average .SO normally all the food i need to blend i will cut into small small piece first just blend and sometimes i also will add ice tube together blend fruit juice . more set the is detachable for easy-cleaning. but this blender just only 1 speed so cannot change to slow speed , although only 1 speed but the speed so amazing blender is powerful .the package includes a mill attachment as well. The grain mill can be used to grind flour, peaunt ,bean,barley, wheat and other dry, non-oily grain but my mother is like to blend meat and garlic etc. Easy to clean, this mill is robust enough to crush almost any types of food at a fast pace. this blender the plastic jar with the Below the stainless steel blade cover can separate to open so very easy to clean it but the disadvantage u must make sure u closed the jar with the stainless steel blade cover closed good if not the water juice will Leak out ,so more disadvantage is the blender the stand is no stable when i blend the blender is Will be moving so need to hold the blender . It has a capacity of 1L and the transparent and i buy this inside got free 1 set transparent plastic jar for me , very worth it and the price also not expensive .
