I bought this right before salsa making so tested it out pretty good when I got it. I really like it. Loved the cordless. The only reason I did not give it a 5 was because when you filled it full , for example, with celery, it really ended up mushing it up instead of a small diced pieces because it took awhile for the pieces on top to get to bottom where blades are so over chopped everything.
