I got this mixer for my husband who makes a lot of milkshakes. My big blender was always in the dishwasher. So I thought this would be easier to use, easier to clean, and I would get my blender back. WRONG. He won't use it at all. It can't handle ice cream, and the tiny milkshake attachment just drills a hole in icream and unless I hold the cup and move it around, nothing gets mixed.Don't waste your time, money, or energy on this machine. It's really quite bad.
