very helpful, thanks for this feedback.
1. Peanut butter and other things you may need to scoop out with a spatula...less crap on hands digging in there. I make PB every week in it and love the wide container. Same goes for hummus.
2. Fits under counters. Never thought this was a big deal until I realized I use it 1-2x/day and its nice to have it there (+ the ego bumps from visitors noticing your blender)
3. backwards compatibility. The newer models will take either type of container, but the older models will not let the new wide containers fit on them. This is like Xbox360 being able to play regular Xbox games, but not the other way around. Future proof yourself a bit.
4. I dont know if there is a capacity difference, but I feel like I dont have to "add" ingredients much once its running...like ingredients just stuff in it nicely, hit the button, and ta-da.
5. newer ones with the wider containers have slightly more powerful motor (verify that). I also think all new models are all wide containers actually.
Don't think you can go wrong with any of their models, but knowing you might have it for 30yrs the dif between a $350 and $500 machine isn't that big of deal. Good luck, easily one of the best purchases I've made and I was skeptical going in.
