I bought this container together with the Professional Series 750 copper blender. We are a family of 2 and I was concerned the large container was too large for most of our recipes. It was the right decision for us. We use this container when making small batches of sauces or smoothies. I'd say we use both containers every weekend. Construction is solid and it works as good as the large container. I agree with others that the container is on the expensive side but I don't mind it much.
