5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a great kitchen helper, August 28, 2006
This review is from: BRAUN MR400 White Multiquick Professional Hand Blender
Honest to goodness, this is the best $20 you'll ever spend if you like to cook. No kidding. So much easier than a blender since you don't have a blender to clean -- the blade end twists off and you can put it in the top rack of your dishwasher. I
have had mine for years and it is going strong. Great for pureed soups and dips and dressings.
You need to become facile with positioning so you don't wind up with hot splattering liquid, so be sure you are careful until you get the hang of it. Try to pool liquid/soup so it covers the blades, for example. Don't try to do a very small amount of something that is liquid else you might be burned and/or make a mess. This used to come with a kind of tall plastic cup that made the most out of small amounts and gave you some protection from making a mess. If it no longer does, I would get something like this. Then you can also store it in this cup -- standing on your counter.

great, April 14, 2006

I really like this hand blender. Its so handy (haha) - I was actually amazed at how fast I was able to mash potatoes. I also got one that came with a wisk, a measuring cup, and an onion chopper. Making milkshakes in the measuring cup is so great - such an easy clean up!

Simple and effective, January 30, 2007
This review is from: BRAUN MR400 White Multiquick Professional Hand Blender
I've had this model or something similar for about the past 8 years, and love it. I inadvertently burnt out the motor on the first one by trying to chop some cheese using the food processor attachment. Don't keep the motor going if the blade stops spinning because the food is too tough! Shake it up or do less food at a time and try again.
This is the only blender I have (I mostly use it for smoothies) and love having something small and efficient that gets the job done. No big hunk of blender sitting around, and fewer materials needed to make and ship it. Mixes stuff right in the container you want it in, avoiding more mess and cleanup, and when you're done, the mixing end twists off for easy washing. Nice.
