BRAUN HAND BLENDER/CHOPPER

After owning a few cheaper units, I sprang for the Braun Hand Blender/Chopper and am very pleased with my choice. While I have mainly used mine for its easy blending-in-the-pot capabilities, I admit the chopper has equal merits, especially when you only need to chop a small quantity of ingredients.

I love being able to immerse the blade right in my soup pot to blend or puree soups and sauces without the mess of getting out my food processor or countertop blender. The blade does a quick job of pureeing and wash-up is a dream. I can’t imagine cooking without this handy device.

Highly recommended.

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 bought this blender twice because it is very useful and handy. Yet, it breaks really fast. The motor suddenly stops working. It happened twice, I bought it, used it, then after a year (as if it’s an expiration date or something) it stops working! I will try another one, a stainless steel one this time as I realized I mostly use it for soups. Hope it’ll last longer.

We were hesitant to pay hundreds for a blender but now that I have it, I dont know how I ever lived without it. It has been a wonderful addition to my eating habits and breaks down the cellulose of greens to make them more absorbable to the body.It goes great with a book called green for life which explains all the great benifits of green smoothies. If you were to start this program, health would improve almost instantly! I am now getting allot more vitimins and minerals from my food than I used to, it keeps me on a raw food diet and is also good for soups. If theres something that my food processor cant do, the vita-mix can! I use it at every given oppertunity and makes great smoothies of any kind, even if you are not a raw foodist.

Great for making smoothies (I always have some frozen bananas and other fruit in the freezer), but it doesn’t chop ice or large chunks very well. Although, it’s easier to store and have available than a blender. Works great for soups and purees. Make your homemade vinaigrette a true emulsion. I guess you could also make your own mayo, but I never had the desire.

I found out about this immersion blender from a vegan friend of mine who uses it for making hummus on the spot whenever company drops it. I’ve made hummus many times, and since haven’t used the store-bought stuff.

This is not good for making salsa, as it tends to liquefy the ingredients in short order.

This also comes with a chopper/grinder attachment that looks like a mini food processor, and it comes with a whisk attachment. Both of these are really more trouble than they’re worth, and you’re better off using a knife and a hand whisk.

Still, this is one of those tools I use nearly everyday for over a year now. And this is the second one I have. The first plastic beaker developed stress cracks and the markings rubbed off. Cuisinart replaced the whole set since they couldn’t have the beaker separately in stock, and it was still under the 3-year warranty.

I’m blogging a list of what I consider my essential kitchen tools: [...]

I wasn’t thrilled with this blender’s user interface (the buttons are kind of unintuitive), but I could live with it. And it actually is a nice solid glass blender, which is good because I often blend hot soups - so heatproof glass is a major plus. Unfortunately the base is nowhere near as solid. It’s almost comical that Cuisinart used such a cheap, easily cracked, plastic base with such a diesel pitcher.

The problem is that if you tighten the glass pitcher onto the base with too much torque, you’ll end up with a hairline crack in the base where it threads onto the pitcher. The entire base is just one large brittle piece of hard plastic. If they had used rubber or more-flexible plastic material, then this crack wouldn’t happen. It’s made from the kind of plastic that if you put it in the freezer for a day, took it out, and dropped it on the floor, would shatter into a hundred pieces. It just makes no sense that such an otherwise solid blender would have such a cheap failure point.
