#4 Is this chopper suitable to grinding spices?
It should technically. But no it is not. At all. I grinded a small amoutn of whole spices in it and it cracked the plastic container multiple places. Ninja offered a replacement but to be honest i wouldnt try it again. Same thing would happen with hard nuts like almonds. If u want to grind nuts and spices, you are better of investing in a stainless steel grinder. The ninja chopper is very good for everything else like vegetables and salsa, chutney etc.
