My Vitamix blender kicked the bucket after about 3.5 decades, and as a budget conscious senior, couldn't afford to replace it. I spent several weeks doing extensive research. Finally came across the Tornado blender - and although it wasn't a known brand, I was convinced of the integrity of Ingo's story and product. I had to wait awhile, but it went on sale - and I snapped one up. The blender is very high quality - I know I'll have this for a long, long time.
I easily make healthy drinks and soups, and know that I'm helping myself remain healthy - my biggest joy. Thank you, Ingo!
