Very little power. It just takes up room and does not work well.

I had used Smeg before, and this product is quieter than that, which I really liked. I also liked that you can adjust the speed according to the pressure of your hand using the push button.
This is an excellent stick blender It is my second Kitchen Aid stick blender, my first one lasted 8 years I bought a basic model this time and was disappointed that the attachments from my first blender wouldn't connect. (Thus the 4 instead of 5 stars)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Has been incredible. Never imagined I needed a hand blender but now that I have one I could never imagine being without it. It makes cooking so much more convenient.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not sure if i have a defective unit or not, but this blender can't even work through ice cream and milk to make a shake. Not even a thick shake, as I tried 4 different times with varying amounts of milk. I have very little hope this thing could make use of the food processor attachment. My Cuisinart stopped working after only 2 years but it at least worked.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
