The Cuisinart CBT-500W SmartPower Premier 600-Watt Blender gets 3 stars out of 5 at Amazon by customers who bought this blender. One person who bought this blender found that when using it, it smelled like buring tires when the motor was run. On a good note, one customer had to say the following:

The jar’s shape helps the food move and mix better than a round jar. The jar’s size is larger than any I have found. I pour from the corner of the jar if the mix is too thick to pour from the spout (which I concede is a little wide). The weight keeps the blender in place. The shipping weight is around 15 LBS is that too heavy? Maybe you should skip the smoothies and switch to a muscle building drink. Most every quality blender has weight to it. The plastic units are light and considered disposable. Keep buying those $30 disposable blenders if you want, however I’ll keep my Cuisinart!
