It just about does the job as a stick blender but I would have been much happier with either a stainless steel blending jug or a glass one and a glass chopping unit rather than a plastic one. The instructions said to clean the lid by just wiping it - which is not hygienic at all as there are many areas where food will splatter and wiping won't clean that up.Īfter contacting the manufacturer I finally got the information that the lid can be washed but only by hand and not in a dish washer.Ĭonsidering the price of this item I am not very happy with it. The instructions suggested that the lid of the plastic chopping attachment could not be immersed in water and I nearly sent the whole thing back. I tried the chopping attachment with seeds and they just danced around untouched and unground. I don't like the plastic blending jug and I don't like the plastic chopping attachment. My previous stick blender was corded and had many different speeds and a turbo button but it was mainly made of plastic and silicone which is why I wanted to change to stainless steel for hot soup blending. Maybe it is easier for people with big hands and excellent dexterity - but that isn't me. The whisk attachment is also tricky to use without splattering stuff all over the place because it is either on or off so you can't start gently and speed up - it is off or full on and it is difficult to hold the container you are whisking in steady while also trying to use the whisk and handle at the same time. The switch on the handle is tricky to manage and it only has one speed and I don't like that.Īs a stick blender it is difficult to operate. The second best thing and the reason I purchased it - is that the stick blender attachment is all stainless steel. The fact it is cordless is the best thing about it.
