Agree completely with the other review that the magnet is too strong. You have to slam the cup down
unnaturally hard to release the ball but even a fraction too hard will cause the ball to bounce back
up and stick to the magnet again. The margin of error, whether too hard or too soft, is way too slim
to comfortably use this as a chop cup. I gave it two stars because it is a nice looking and sturdy
prop that I can perhaps find another use for but as a chop cup it's a fail.
