Query: Quality construction, but doesn't get the job done

This blender is well constructed, powerful, quiet, easy to clean, safe, and attractive. The wide opening at the bottom makes it easy to remove thicker foods.Unfortunately, I never use it. The shape of the food container is such that the food is not efficiently funneled towards the blades. The result is uneven blending, with food chunks of all sizes in the mix. The longer you blend, the smaller the variously-sized chunks get, but the results are never completely smooth and even.I get much better use from a battery-powered blender that I paid less than 20 bucks for. Its motor can't compare, and it's a pain to use, but it produces consistently even blends.
