The power is impressive! We make smoothies most mornings, starting with frozen fruit. Even on low, this blends quickly and well. For soups, with meat bits, I use the high. It’s quickly become our go to blending tool
Love my new Cuisinart Smart Stick, use it daily for my morning smoothie and this version is noticeably more powerful than my original hand blender from Cuisinart. Would have given 5 stars, but the two button start/stop is a bit tricky to adjust too. A single on/off button would be preferred.
This Smart Stick is a replacement for my old Cuisinart immersion blender. I like this blender, however, it’s a bit longer than my previous one, so I had to get used to that feature. Otherwise, it is well made, blends smoothies perfectly, and a good buy.
