Hamilton Beach Blender - Stay or Go 10 Speed with Travel Cup Reviews

When our hand-me-down blender bit the dust I thought I was "upgrading" when I spent $30 on the Hamilton Beach Stay or Go 10 Speed Blender. SKU: 50256WVH

What I like about the Hamilton Beach Blender:

I paid $30.00 for it and didn't know what a great blender I was getting.

It has 10 speeds and 450 watts.

It has a filler cup which is the plastic piece that goes in the middle of the lid. This can be taken out while the blender is in use and filled with, let's say nuts, and the nuts can be poured...
