I also use it at Christmas to chop celery and onions for the massive amount of stuffing that I make. It's used again a few times in the summer when I'm doing a big batch of pasta salad with a ton of veggies. Gets pulled out in the fall for big batches of soup and chili. I find it easier to use on the kitchen table, rather than at counter height. That way, I can put more of my body weight into it and done this way, it easily dices potatoes and squash and the harder veg. I bought a little silicone grid thing that fits over the grid on the lid and makes cleaning a breeze.
Now that you mention it, I've used it on a table as well, primarily because counter space was at a premium in the kitchens I used, especially when making large batches of goulash and chili. It sure makes quick work of 10lbs of onions.
