Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Reach for this versatile tool when a stand blender or food processor is too big or inconvenient for the task at hand. The hand blender is compact (14 inches high) but powerful. Simply insert the stainless-steel blade at the end of the 5-1/4-inch shaft into a container and press the two-speed control. Blend smoothies, shakes, and other drinks, mix sauces and soups, emulsify salad dressings and mayonnaise, mince herbs and bread crumbs, puree fruits, vegetables, and baby foods, mash potatoes, and whip cream. Included is a 2-cup, dishwasher- and microwave-safe plastic container, or the hand blender can be used right in a pot or pan. To clean the blade, simply hold it under running water, or soak it first in hot, soapy water and then rinse. Clear instructions and recipes are included with the blender. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick Everyday Mixer Makes Blending Easy, January 8, 2001

By	Jon D. Luce (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

Before this handy tool, I wouldn't bother with so many things because unless it was a special occasion I didn't want to fool with the cleanup of the big blender I have had for so long. A friend introduced me to this easy to use everyday blender and now I wonder why I waited so long to get one. It is great for making those diet shakes and blending up waffle mixes and even taking a lot of the work out of homemade potato leek soup. Simple clean up too.

2.0 out of 5 stars Go for the KitchenAid Immersion Blender instead, July 22, 2004

By	large marge "morganstreet" (New York United States) - See all my reviews

I bought the Cuisinart Immersion blender a year and a half ago, and used it 2-3 times a week with passable (if noisy and slighly lumpy) results, until it died last week. I was pleased with my Cuisnart until I replaced it with the KitchenAid Immersion blender. This thing ROCKS. It's quieter, twice as powerful (check the amps!), has nine speeds AND a detachable blade arm for easy, submersable, cleanup. Best of all, it leaves no lumps. You can taste the difference!

1.0 out of 5 stars Sub-Optimal: Cuisinart CSB-33 QuikPrep Hand Blender., February 27, 2006

By	R. Larson "Garden of the Gods" (Pikes Peak) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Having been a long time user of a similar product (Moulinex Turbo) for 8 years, my old unit had seen better days and was in need of replacing. So, I made some assumptions about the product based on my experience with my other Cuisinart products and purchased the CSB-33 QuikPrep Hand Blender. Much to my dismay, the Cuisinart hand blender performs nowhere nearly as well as the Moulinex did the day I threw it away. The Cuisinart has a blade that is not sharpened. Consequently, it doesn't cut up food (like blueberries, for instance) very well. It just sort of beats stuff to a pulp, quite literally, and doesn't puree them into liquid. It also has a system of holes around the perimeter of the blade guard that just get clogged up.
