Waste of time
By Srinivas
This is an extremely poorly finished product. I'm glad we bought this on Amazon so that we could send it back in a hassle free manner. The item came in a box within an outer box. As soon as I opened the other box, I could see the inner box in which the item was packed. I noted several things on that inner box. This item was supposed to come with a DVD. That description was unapologetically masked by a masking tape by probably the seller. And when you open that inner box, the DVD is obviously missing. The maximum retail price (with taxes inclusive) that comes printed on the box was peeled off. I'm sure, that price was in Indian Rupees, because in India that's how prices are printed. No UPC code on the box either. It was Made in India. That's not the problem. In fact, we wanted an Indian Grinder that would help us in our Indian Kitchen. I'm not sure if this was meant to be sold in USA. I grew skeptical of the item once I noted these tell tale tampering signs on the box.Now coming to the item, I was shell shocked at the extremely poor workmanship and materials that were used in the making of this product. The lids were so tight that you have to use full force to push them in or pull them out. You have to hold the jar tight in your elbow/armpit and pull out the lid with the other hand. The lids will pop out with a jerk. Imagine doing this when you have prepared some semi-solid/liquid recipe in that jar. You are sure going to mess up your clothes and the entire kitchen. Next, the finishing of the lids is so atrocious that there are irregular chunks of plastic at many corners and along the circumferences. The circumferences are so sharp almost their entire length that you are sure going to cut your skin if you wash them in a haste. With these sharp edges and huge chunks of left over plastic during the product manufacture, you sure are asking trouble for your hands. Irony, the blades are so blunt and they are so poorly made that at least one blade already has dents on the cutting surface. I'm so disappointed that it didn't take more than a couple of minutes for me and my wife to decide that this is going back. Beggars belief that we have to spend 170 dollars and precious time to buy this piece of junk. As an Indian I'm thoroughly ashamed of this poor quality. Next, the material used for the lids and handles are so cheap and hard that they creak every time you have to force a lid in or out of the jars. And you have to kajole the lids into place on the jars with much pushing and prodding. Good riddance. Amazon is only going to damage their reputation by allowing these kind of junk from some sellers who don't seem to take pride in the products they sell or the way they do their business (masking tape on the box where it was printed Instruction DVD as one of the contents of the box, missing DVD in the box, peeled off Indian price tag, no UPC code etc..). I got return authorization and we packed it. UPS is picking it up most probably tomorrow.I generally don't take so much time to write a review. But we are so utterly disappointed with this junk that I don't want any other Indian family or people of any nationality to waste their time on this junk. Time is just so precious. Hope this honest review helps at least one family out there in USA. I wish I could give it 5 negative stars.

Works well for wet grinding - overload cutoff is great
By Suzanne Dawley
I've been using Preethi Blue Leaf for about 3 years now. I purchased it after burning out US blenders making idly and dosa batter. The motor saver on this mixie is the overload cutoff that is located on the bottom of the base. When the motor gets too hot, it shuts itself down instead of burning out and you can reset it and continue after a few seconds of cool down. The small jar is also great for masalas and chutneys. I've never used the juicer or watched the DVD. The one complaint I have never been able to use the small storage jars which have these impossible silicon washers on them correctly. It's a tough machine.

By pradeep Raghuwanshi
I am happy with this purchase, even though I was skeptical with some of the reviewer's comments on it. The motor is really powerful and it takes seconds to grind or mix food stuff. I had tried Magic bullet earlier and it was a pain to use it.When the package arrives, it does looks like it has been opened and jars etc were not clean. But we assumed that someone might have tested it for 230V prior to shipping, since the make is of India. We washed all jars/covers/blades with detergent before first use. They also sent some spare parts which will be helpful, esp in US, when some part wears out.
