 Nice to be cord free Jan 24, 2009
By Keri Vaca
I have had the Cuisinart plug in hand blender, but wanted to go cordless. I finally broke down and got this one. It is nice to be cord free, but it is pretty heavy, and big for my hands. It does blend well. The other thing I do not like, is that when you charge the base, it does not give you a green light that it is charged. That would be helpful.
It is also very easy to charge, because the handle has a plug built right into it, no separate base. I really like the small mixer bowl attachment that came with it as well. I have used it more than I expected.

 Big Boy! Mar 09, 2009
By Dutch Oven Guy
This is a wonderfully powerful hand blender. It is LARGE. People with small hands might want hold one first before making an online purchase. I am not delighted with nicad batteries since they are fussy about being discharged before being recharged, but maybe they are necessary due to the large current draw of the motor. This is ideal for pureed soups. No more 10 trips to the blender with hot soup dribbling all over the counter or burning my hands.

Great kitchen utensil Jan 19, 2009
By C. Michael Watkins
I aso have an earlier version of this hand blender and have always loved its usability and effectiveness. Very impressed with this later model - love the extras - whisk and chopper attachments are really excellent - a true multi-tasking "Wizzk kid".
Easy to use, easily stowable, space saving. Great buy!

 great power but too big Aug 31, 2009
By Melanie
Wish I'd paid attention to the review that said it was a large stick. The unit is too large and too heavy for me. On first use, the blade attachment wobbles. Doesn't feel safe to say the least. I also don't like rechargable after using it. Most of the time when I want to use a stick, it's impromptu and having to either have it plugged in all the time or wait a few minutes for it to charge is useless. I definitely have buyer's remorse on this one.

Poor battery life Jan 08, 2010
By A. Mattix
I have an earlier version of this cordless immersion blender. I loved the idea of a cordless model, but I found some big drawbacks. On a full charge, the battery would run out of juice after about 5 minutes. So if you want to puree several batches of food at once, you're out of luck until you wait for the battery to charge.
After about a year, my battery no longer held a charge while the unit was in storage. Now I have to plan ahead and plug in my blender the day before I want to use it. (It takes a long time to recharge the battery.)
Hopefully these battery issues have been remedied in the newer version, but it's something to keep in mind. I'm buying another immersion blender with a cord and junking this one.
