I miss my old model without the safety switch! It's just too much trouble to have to depress that button everytime i engage the motor. Otherwise, it is a wonderful product for making smoothies, immersion blending, etc., and it is helpful that the blending stick detaches from the main blender so that you can put it into the sink, dishwasher, etc for cleaning and not have to worry about immersing and ruining the motor.
Love my new stick blender. Does everything I need it to do. There was a problem with the measuring cup and they are sending me a new one great customer service.
Takes a little bit of practice to learn how to use this most effectively. Different techniques for soup vs sauces etc. Overall it is very easy to use and clean up. I’ve wanted one of these for a long time so happy to have this as another kitchen tool!
I love this immersion blender. I bought it to mix a tomato bisque in the pot and it was amazing. It saved me from the mess of transferring the bisque to a food processor to smooth out. I’ve also been able to make smoothies in the cup that it comes with. Blending with it is fast and it’s super easy to clean. I was worried it wouldn’t have enough power but let me tell you, it blends things smooth in a matter of seconds.
