I hesitated about ordering this yesterday but did it anyway. Then before I went to bed, I cancelled it. Later on, they still had the yellow I wanted on 5 easy-pays so I reordered it. Still wasn't sure though. I really wanted it for making smoothies, etc. as I already have a food processor that I love & it has the 6 blades. I really didn't want all the various parts/blades that came w/the TSV.

This morning, I did some more research on smoothie makers, etc. and found that the ones that do only that, sell for around $25 but only have 150-300 watts and burn out in less than a year (sometimes only weeks/months) and people were on their 3rd of 4th one. That seemed absurd to me. The Magic Bullet has gotten expensive too and came with so many pieces, etc. and didn't have the power either and didn't have good reviews. I found the Ninja Pulse (model BL204) for $79.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond and also a 20% off coupon. If you got it online, you also got free shipping. I went to the store since it's only 10 mi. from my house and picked it up for just about $68 incl. tax. It's also 700 watts & comes with 3 of the single-serve containers (travel mugs) w/lids, and a 40 oz. container with various blades. Perfect!

I came home and cancelled my order with QVC. That order with s/h & tax came to $132...about double what I paid for at BB&B. I'm a happy camper!
