The KitchenAid KHB100 is praised by owners and professional testers for its powerful motor and variable speeds. It has a stainless-steel shaft, a large pulse button and a long cord. The KitchenAid KHB100 blender, which comes in three colors, has nine speeds and a one-year replacement warranty. The KitchenAid KHB100 is nearly identical to its pricier sibling, the KHB300 (Discontinued), except it doesn't include a four-piece chopper and a stainless-steel whisk as attachments. The less expensive Cuisinart Smart Stick CSB-76 (*Est. $30), a basic hand blender comparable to KitchenAid KHB100, is favored in more professional reviews.
Reviewers at Cook's Country tested the KitchenAid KHB100, along with seven other blenders, for its ability to create mayonnaise, pesto, soups and smoothies. This KitchenAid blender was also included in an older review in Cook's Illustrated in March 2006. KitchenGadgetGals.com names the KitchenAid KHB100 as their favorite hand blender, but they don't disclose details about how their tests were conducted. It is a favorite in numerous owner-written reviews at Epinions.com and Amazon.com.
