5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Kitchen Gadget!! , June 19, 2006

By	Saralynn (Midwest) - See all my reviews

I purchased this product mainly for making soups. I hated having to put soup into the blender in bathces to puree it. Not only was this time consuming but I usually made a huge mess in the process. Well this product solved that problem for me. I made a soup the other day and used this product to blend the soup right in the pot! While I was nervous about "only" being able to run the blender continuously for 50 seconds, I learned that 50 seconds is more than enough time for this item to blend a whole pot of soup, in fact it only took about 15-20 seconds.

I have also used the grinder attachment to mince fresh parsley, and have also made a smoothie using the included measuring cup and blender.

Although the manual states that you cannot run this product for more than a certain amount of time (depending on the function), I have learned that this product can accomplish those tasks easily in the time frames given (it took 5 seconds to mince my parsley!).

I cannot comment on the warranty as I have not had a problem with this item, but for the price if it fails I would most likely just buy a new one.

My only complaint would be that the whisk attachment seems very flimsy, but I have not actually used the whisk attachment yet, so I assume that it will work just fine for light tasks such as whisking egg whites. Although based on the feel of it I would not use it for much else.

However, I have a feeling that I am going to continue to find uses for this wonderful little gadget. For the price this item is a great buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars a wonderful tool, November 20, 2005

By	W. Cadbury (Eugene, OR, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I don't know about the warranty stuff, and I've only had this a week or so, but I love it. I always hated ladling chunky soup into the blender, thence into another bowl while I did further batches, making a mess at every stage. With this I did a big bowl of soup, put the hand blender into it and in maybe 15 seconds it was perfectly pureed. Moreover, a note in the manual led me to using it every morning to froth the almond milk I use in my latte, at which it does a fantastic job--again, 15 seconds or so and way better than you get at Starbucks (though a good barrista can still do a better job with steam). Terrific.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yes! Kitchen gadget of the year!, October 4, 2007

By	A. Darling "darlingswe" (Seattle, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been debating for a while now about what to do with my faulty Cuisinart Smooth Operator blender (read my review, mine leaks) While looking for potential replacements, I read the reviews about immersion/stick/hand blenders and decided the concept made SO much sense!First for me, is the easy clean up. Then convenience (esp. love not conveying hot soup to the blender!). So I bought the set up that comes with the mini chopper and the mixing cup (for those of you who complained it didn't come with one--buy a big plastic cup at the dollar store)

Took it right home and started playing with it: a cup of frozen blueberries, some frozen ripe bananas, a cup of vanilla soy milk, a little green powder from Trader Joes and I was off. Stuck the blender in followed directions and buried the blade under the mixture and moved it up and down. This baby went to work and made a smoothie before I could say "Mmmmmmm..smooooooothie." Later in the evening, I'm using the crock pot to make my dog his food and once the beef is cooked I remove the roast, and stick my new gadget in the pot and turn the yams, brocolli, carrot and spinach mixture into my dog's meals for a month.

I love this thing, the reason 4 not 5 stars is the manual states to used chipped ice, not whole ice. For me, I'm lucky enough to have the crushed ice dispenser on the fridge, but for others, that would make this gadget a little less frosty-licious.

Love it, love it, love it and I'm buying another as the PERFECT gift for a brother who loves to cook.
