The top of the blender, doubles as a plastic travel take-along bottle, and when attached to the base adds about 7” inches of height. ... Sometimes I add some other ingredients such as walnuts or shredded coconut and then as the last ingredient I’ll add ½ cup of crushed ice. ...

comment
" ...  I think the only thing that is a problem for me is that you have to hold the button while you are blending and if you put too much in it sometimes it is unable to blend it thoroughly and I find myself having to stir it with a spoon sometimes to loosen things up in order for the blades to blend it good enough.  ...  "
