Beats the Cuisinart version, November 19, 2009Got this after discovering that the Cuisinart version's parts are *not* dishwasher-safe, so you have to hand-wash the blade after every use. (The Cuisinart's description has some cryptic language on it… that sort of implies that it is dishwasher safe, but this only applies to some of the parts.) After several months of use, including many cycles through the dishwasher, the KitchenAid blender is working great.
Nice, November 19, 2009I am very happy with this purchase. I join all those people who wrote all those positive reviews. They were not exgerating. It's a very powerful mixer. It gets the job done quickly and easily. It's also easy to clean and store.
Great immersion blender, November 7, 2009This is the third immersion blender I have owned and leave it to KitchenAid to do a fine job producing a great product. This same immersion blender is available without the accessory pieces, but it is worth… it to get them all at once - with the added bonus of the storage tote! The food chopper attachment is perfect for chopping nuts, grinding crackers, grating cheese, etc. My only complaint would be that the bottom, no-slip disk is not actually attached, it is a separate piece. The unit is powerful and easy to clean.
careful to buy, October 5, 2009i purchased the hand blender and was so excited. however i used it 3 x and somehow stopped working. it doesnt work anymore. smoke started coming out, i dont know why. good thing it happened early so i was… able to call the company and they will issue another one under 1 yr warranty. warranty should be longer than 1 yr. just like the cuisinart. oh well. i recommend using the product quickly and see it doesnt wear out.
