Kitchen Blenders

I’ve had one of these for years and I would not live without it. It emulsified salad dressings better than any whisk and there’s no need to “dribble in” the oil. Just put all ingredients int he bowl, turn it on and in seconds you have perfectly emulsified dresssing.

I like the size of the chopper unit too…mine lives on the counter top without being too obtrusive. I bought a Braun hand mixer that came with a slightly bigger chopper and I hate it. The bowl is too big for small quantities such as salad dressing and takes up too much space ont he counter and in the fridge.

I mainly use the chopper, but the stick blender comes in handy any time I want to puree soups or smooth out gravies. You simply put the stick blender into the pot and puree in a second. It’s so much simpler to use and clean up than a regular blender.

I am so pleased with this blender and Bosch. Because it is cordless, I can take it to the stove to puree/blend soups and sauces. The chopper accessory perfect for small quantities of herbs, garlic, ginger root, etc. and so far (1 month) battery has lasted through all jobs. But the best part - I am with the US Army in Germany (power is 220 volt)but I will return the US (power is 110 volt) in 2 years. The exact same mixer (but with 220 V charging station) is available here, but I wouldn’t be able to use it in the US. I discovered that, in Germany, Bosch sells the charging station separately (very inexpensively). So I bought the US mixer and the 220 volt charger station to use while in Germany. Now I can use it anywhere!!

I’ve owned this product for 6 years and it was my introduction to food processing. First, the blender is awesome. Great. Wonderful. Very effective and fast. Great quality. Sturdy.

The food processor is where the quality tends to drop. I haven’t had problems with anything breaking. It’s just that the chopping isn’t very consistent. It tends to either leave lots of over sized chunks, or to change everything into an absolute puree. There’s no in between. For the longest time I thought I was using it incorrectly, but after purchasing a larger food processor that also includes a prep bowl that works perfectly and with precision, I think it’s just this product. I did successfully use this small food processor to make biscuit dough, and it did a nice job.

The shredding disc works fine. The only limitation of course is the size of the bowl. As long as you don’t mind doing your shredding for potato pancakes or cheese for lasgana in batches, it’s not a problem.

It is decently easy to clean, though I find that my larger food processor is actually easier with less stuff getting caught in corners.

The final blow against this product is the food processor noise. It’s incredibly loud, to the point where I’ve pondered ear plugs if you’re processing anything for more than a couple of pulses.

While trying to pick out my new food processor, a cuisinart sales person tried to explain away these faults that this is simply part of the product being small, and that the craftsmanship as compared to the larger cuisinarts cannot is inferior. So if you’re doing light cooking in very small quantities, this is probably an ok purchase for you. If you do more intermediate to serious cooking, I would definitely not recommend this.

I have had this stick Immersion Hand Blender with Chopper for over a year, and used it about a hundred times. There are two problems which have been significant for me, but might not matter for you: (a) Washing the top of the chopper in the dishwasher causes it to fill with dirty water which leaks out slowly, but you can’t fully empty it; (b) You can’t chop small quantities, the minimum has to fill the chopper enough to cause full churn of the ingredients. In other words, a lot of pesto is ok, but not a little.

I’m into raw foods. I have Blendtec blenders, the big 20 amp models, and I like the Oster Fusion the best. I can put the glass container in the dishwasher, new blades are under $10 if I need them, and the blades fit on a mason jar if I want to make small quantities of something. The reversing blades are awesome. Salsa comes out chunky and red, not thin and pink foam like other blenders. I’m selling my Blendtecs on Ebay.
