As we have been downsizing our home and simplifying our life, we had gotten rid of many kitchen gadgets that were taking up too much space and hardly used. I love to cook and this stick blender has made food prep so much easier. I used to have to pull out a huge blender just to smooth sauces or gravies. This stick blender is simple to use. It is powerful and well made. My new favorite!
I bought this specifically to make butternut squash soup, and it has performed beautifully. It is light weight and easy to use and is backed by the Cuisinart name.
Gifted to me but great!! Easy to control in one hand with safety button and power button placement on stem. Powerful blades actually create suction on bottom of container so pulls in content to blend. I’m very Pleased!!
I bought this hand blender in hopes it could replace my 27 year old hand mixer. This blender is convenient, it doesn't take up space; efficient, it is powerful enough for gravies, soups, cake mixes, and salsas. I like the safety feature of the lock/unlock button. It is also easy for the smaller hand size, it is not too bulky to manage its use.
I had another hand blender that lasted for about 25 years, but the motor was making weird noises so my husband bought me this one for Christmas. It works great. I used it for butternut squash soup and it blended everything quickly. It should last for many years.
