Despite the photos and the information below listed as pertaining to the item, I received a white blender with only 2 of what appear to be the larger of the two sizes pictured. NOT what I ordered. An outright deception, a waste of my time, and very annoying.

This is what was written regarding the item:

Product Description

Apollo comes standard with two large cups - perfect for creating single-servings of your favorite smoothies, ice-blended coffee drinks, margaritas, soups and sauces; two small cups - great for grinding herbs, spices, and baby foods; a blending"

I used this blender almost every morning to make 1 smoothie. After 38 days it totally quit working. For $50 I would never recommend it. Look for something with more power. This is really cheap.

This blender is perfect for smoothies and protein shakes. the blender works great and the system is easy to clean up.

My husband and I follow the Clean Diet plan and we often supplement snacks with protein shakes. This little blender is AMAZING! We used to make our skakes in a large blender and it was such a hassel to clean it. This little "1-shake" maker is blow you away powerful. It breaks up large ice cubes in seconds. It's the easiest clean-up ever. We've had it for a few months and use it almost every day and never had a problem. We even throw it in the suit case and travel with it. It comes with 2 of everything so we each get our own shake container. You can drink the shake right out of the container cup or pour it into something else. We are amazed that this little blender is so powerful. It's perfect!

Magic bullet has name,but this product seem to have quality and looks better than Magic Bullet. Both grinder and blender blades come with it.

Like the other reviewer I too got a white one with a different amount of cups. What a bunch of crap. Amazon should delist this seller for this bait and switch.

My Apollo blender died after very light usage for less than a year, it was used perhaps a few dozen times. That works out to about $2.00 per use now that I have to replace the unit. Sad that I have to throw away all the containers now that the motor has burned out - I could not find any way to have just the motor unit repaired or replaced.

While I'm at it, the storage covers were also VERY tight and difficult to use, particularly when the container is full of liquid - contents spills out when trying to get the threaded lid into the proper position so that the container will be properly sealed.

Better to save your money and purchase a blender that will last a few thousand uses versus this one that will only last a few dozen. This blender is more likely to stop working just when you need it most, leaving you with an unfinished cake or dinner.

My husband is the one who used this item the most. He took it to work for protein shakes. He didn't like the lids fit first off. Than the ridges inside of each of the blending containers made it difficult to clean. It eventually fell apart and got tossed, not long after he started using it; about a year.
