I was pleasantly surprised to see that the blended is larger than I thought it would be. For some reason I thought it would be smaller and meant for a single serving. It’s so quiet and quick and the blending power is great! Now I’m not spending extra time and effort constantly taking the lid off of a blender to move things around with a spatula. I’m kind of mad at myself for not purchasing this sooner. Plus, it looks so modern and clean. I find myself taking extra care to clean it out right away.
