The Braun MX2050 PowerMax Jug Blender comes with mixed reviews from customers at Amazon. Some felt it was a great blender after 4 months, stating that the blender lived up to what it offered and was very powerful and others found the blender to be a hassle because the gear teeth is made of plastic rather than metal and that is what seems to be the most common problem with the Braun mixer.
