I went through two other blenders before I got this one. The curvy blade cage is great because it keeps it from suctioning to the bottom of a pot or bowl. It's awesome. It's powerful, super sturdy, and blends in seconds. Price is good for the quality. I can't imagine needing more than this.
great product. We killed our Oster version about 6mos ago. This is a very powerful blender, we love it.
We're hoping Kitchenaid addresses this issue in subsequent models. By the time we noticed it, food had dried was stuck about 1/4" up the shaft.
The first one died too early, but we liked using it so much for our morning smoothies that we bought another. This one is working ok, but like other reviewers stated, the rubber seal came loose and trapped food.
This is our second hand held blender. The seal was just loose enough to trap food, and not noticeable at first.
The seal is not removable because of the blades. Food gets in the shaft and is next-to-impossible to clean.
We still use it, but it requires tedious methods to clean and keep sanitary. It's a great blender, but buyer beware.
Everyone who makes soups should have this handy kitchen tool. Instead of waiting for the soup to cool so that you can use your blender on soups that need blending, you can proceed with this step while it is hot and right in the cooking pan. An incredible time and cleanup saver. It is a little bit heavy, but no heavier than a hand mixer.
All in all, I'm a happy camper. I got more than what I paid for.
Product arrived ahead of schedule. Blender neatly packed in a styrofoam fitted box.
Ordered the Hand Blender without problems. Actually I paid more than I wanted but.
Used all dial settings using soups, stocks & sauces [great results from purees to slightly chunky]. Cleaning is a snap since: the blending attachment can be separated from the motor body, dunked into soapy water, and dried off in the drain rack.
It's a really cool device for those pea soup fans who make their own. - Teo
