Although this blender has a smaller capacity (32 ozs.) than most blenders (42 ozs.) it packs plenty of power.  It comes with 2 (16 oz) travel mugs with lids.  You can make a full jar of smoothies or whatever blending juice you like & pour it into the travel mugs or make 1 individually.  There's a smaller grinding jar grinding that works great for nuts or whole coffee beans, for these items the pulse works best.  Clean up is easy and the sleek design of the unit makes it attractive enough to leave on the countertop if you choose. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
