This is 100% a no-regret purchase for me. It's solid, has great variable power that's controlled solely by your trigger finger, making adjustment very intuitive and easy. I also love the surface and quality of the build. Cleaning is so convenient, and this is probably why I've ended up using this on a daily basis. Twisting off the blade portion is effortless, and it gets cleaned off immediately, easily, and done. It takes 10 seconds to clean. My sister saw me use it once and ordered one immediately. She loves hers, too. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this again.

In the past, I had an immersion blender from a thrift shop and thought such gadgets were totally worthless, but read on a cooking blog about it being one of the author's "must have" tools. So I decided to get a good one and find out if I agreed. Boy, do I! I make my dog's food, and it has to be in small bits, as she is totally toothless. I'd previously spent lots of time chopping veggies before cooking, but with this blender, I can cook up a pot of ground meat, veggies, rice, whatever, with no chopping at all beforehand. When all is cooked, I just pop the blender into the pot and in no time, voila! I have a beautifully chopped, not-quite-puréed batch of dog food. I've also used the blender to make creamy soups and frozen smoothies, and it has handled chopping ice cubes amazingly well. I haven't used my regular blender since getting this, mainly because this one is so incredibly easy to clean! Just remove the blade unit, run it through hot soapy water and you're done. This is now one of my "must-have" kitchen items. Perhaps other brands are just as good, I wouldn't know... but I don't think you could find anything better than this KitchenAid. I am totally in love with it. And the red color is really pretty, too!

This KitchenAid hand blender works incredibly well — it’s powerful, easy to control, and blends soups and smoothies perfectly every time. The removable arm makes cleanup simple, and the included jar is super handy. Really happy with this purchase!

I have been hand immersion blending for close to a decade on a daily basis and used 3 Cuisinart versions of their Smart Stick before this Kitchen-Aid brand and style. Comparing the 4 after many uses, and many cleanings, this Kitchen-Aid unit surpasses the others. Their one thumb, progressive multi speed switch is by far the nicest and easiest I have used. It allows for blending protein powder into hot milk in a large coffee cup quietly and effortlessly, but most awesomely is...cleanly! The earlier versions of the Cuisinart had some counter paintings going on with spraying, non-adjustable over-blends, but this switch pretty much eliminates any of those messes. Also, the Kitchen-Aid blade and bell design blends the same powder in the same liquid in the same cup much quicker than my last Cuisinart did. Another standout of the Kitchen-Aid is the stability of the blade shaft in the lower blade bell. There is very little movement and has a more solid feel with a better seal and a tighter tolerance. It's actually the reason my 3rd Cuisinart had to be replaced, it was just so noisy with the blade shaft vibrating like crazy blending simple liquid. The one aspect the Cuisinart is better for though, is their one thumb click switch to detach the blade unit from the motor body for cleaning. Simple, with no sticking or finicky wrestling to get them apart. Attaching was the easiest too, as there was no specific lining up of the 2 parts to connect the blade to the body, just insert and click. The Kitchen-Aid has an insert and twist to lock style of blade attachment and only connects in one aligned position. I'm assuming with it being new, the drive shaft insertion is still pretty snug into the upper blade coupling which results in a full, "2-hand wiggle back and forth with gingerly applied pressure" process being needed to get them apart. Too much pressure too quick will result in it letting go with a jerk and causing another possible clean-up. I expect over time this will become less wiggly to get apart, but only time will tell. This is easily overlooked though with that one thumb progressive On/Off switch, it's just so much better than the 2 thumb start, 2 hand to change the 2 preset speed switch on the Cuisinart. Thanks :)
