There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Note: I read many poor reviwes due to the shaft separating from the body durrig use which is why this was not the first one I ordered. Those reviews are ridiculous. There is a dash on the shaft that lines up with a dash on the body. It clicks firmply into place and, when properly aligned, wont be going anywhere. It is a bit stiff but this is what keeps it from coming undone. If people would just follow simple directions those reviws would not exsist and this product would have a higer rating.
The blender itself feels sturdy and made with high quality materials, so I know it won't break anytime soon. I've been using it 3-5 times a week for the past couple months and it's as good as new. I use it to make all kinds of sauces, n-ice cream, smoothies, acai bowls...you name it.
Overall very easy and handy to operate with 2 speeds, and the motor runs really strong. It's especially very convenient and I find myself picking it up way more than the traditional blender I have because it's much easier to wash and so much more convenient. Highly recommended!

Our answers to the frequently asked questions below:
How many watts is it?
216 watts
In the pictures it doesn't show a cord, is it wireless?
It is not wireless and does not come with a wireless option (We know. It is a little deceiving!)
Can it mash potatoes?
Yes. When the potatoes are at a soft consistency.
Overall, we recommend buying the KitchenAid KHB2351CU 3-Speed Hand Blender - Contour Silver . It is a little more expensive, but more versatile with a Whisk and Chopper Attachment and a Removable Pan Guard.

It's been now about a month since I had it. I made quite few shakes with it, without a problem. Two speed feature is wonderful. Just remember, don't put a lot of frozen fruits all at once, this thing has it's limits. But if you add liquid and slowly keep adding frozen pieces, it does the job no problem! My boyfriend used it for mushing the soup in large pot, and absolutely loved it. The long arm is fantastic.
Build is solid, well made. Button is covered with silicon layer, which makes cleaning a breeze. I managed to buy mine on Amazon and save $40. Which was a fantastic deal. Well recommended!
My blender is now officially collecting dust.
I beat the crap out of my kitchen tools and after several weeks of pesto, soups, dressings, etc. This is the best hand blender I have used. I had confidence in the brand and was not disappointed!
