This is great. Kinda wish it was 6 cups  but don’t think they make that size? Not sure  I usually see 4,8, 12 but think this will be fine for salsa, hummus, chicken salad and so forth. Have always been pleased with Hamilton Beach products so expect no problems. Looking forward to a long lifetime of use. Like the self storage but don’t care for how the sharp blade just sits so loosely on top. Going to make cardboard pocket to store it in, should have kept what the blade was packed in. Oh well!
