Bamix 391200 Hand Mixer DeLuxe White Review

I don't have much I can say about the Bamix that hasn't been said by many others, but I felt compelled to at least say something about it. This thing is incredible! When we bought our unit, we also bought one of each size of the polycarbonate beekers. It turns out that while you can certainly mix things in any kind of container, the size and shape of these containers is very appropriate for keeping an even consistency in whatever you're mixing, so I am glad we also got them.
My wife immediately made mayonnaise, which she said was "amayonnaisingly easy". (And it was gourmet restaurant quality too.)
I made some "ice cream" out of some frozen organic raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, peaches, and mango. It was really awesome - I froze it right in the beeker, which has a nice tight-sealing lid.
The Bamix is super easy to clean - just run it for a few seconds in a beeker of water and hang it up. We keep it right next to the sink on the stand. While we don't use it every single day, we do use it a lot, and it has really added a lot of great new options for us in the kitchen. Oh - the raw soups are amazing too.
My rating of the Bamix: 6 stars out of 5. It met and even exceeded expectations, and it seems like it is made so well, I bet we will still be using this same unit in 50 years!

Viking Professional Blender Review

I don't own a food processor and the couple I've had over the years did nothing to make cooking simpler. So, when I needed to replace my blender, I simply wanted something that was better than what I had before. (Cuisinart). I researched the subject and found this blender to be the most highly reccomended. I wasn't happy about having to pay so much, but the price, while significant, is not out of line. I was surprised to find that though there are all kinds of blenders to be had, they are almost all of about the same quality. Even the better ones have trouble crushing ice and if used regularly, can not last more than two years.
This is why I am willing to pay what looks like too much. This blender is a high quality appliance that does what it claims it will, lasts several years, and saves money in the end. I didn't buy it to make drinks. Yes, I discovered that nothing handles ice like this, but it does so much more that most blenders would choke on. I bought it primarily for dog food. I grind broccoli down to nothing. It's what killed my last blender. This just goes right through it. The trick, I learned, is to feed it small amounts at a time.
Like so much else, when you pay that much more, you end up with some strange thing with few "features". The face of this appliance has a dial and that dial has four positions; one of which is "off". There is a high speed, a low speed, and "pulse". That is all. That is all it needs. I have never seen anything like this. It chops quickly and grinds uniformly. I wouldn't try it, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it could grind rocks.
If you don't mind forking over a bit more, well, you get what you pay for. This is in a class all it's own. Seriously: there are blenders, and then there is this. It has a strong motor that does not complain at tasks that slow most blenders. It handles ice cubles like they are butter. I expect that I won't be buying a new blender again for many years, if ever. I had serious reservations regarding paying so much for a device I have never had a good experience with. I am so glad I took the risk. I suspect I will still have no regrets about this purchase a decade from now. Most blenders can't go ten months!

KitchenAid KHB100ER Hand Blender, Empire Red Review

I love handblenders. I have this one and its attachments, and I use it pretty regularly. I have two complaints: 1) the powercord is thick, cumbersome, and hard to keep out of one's way. I had a cordless unit from a different manufacturer before, and I must say--the extra power here is nice, but I'm not 100% convinced the hassle of the cord is really worth that extra umph very often. 2) and here's the kicker--there's no actual "on" switch. You've got to hold it on the whole time. I really wanted to give one to my mom for Xmas, but she simply doesn't have the hand-strength any longer to make use of this unit. It takes me two hands to keep it held "on," and my hands cramp up when I've got something that I need to blend for a sustained amount of time. That said, this is a lovely unit (I adore the red color), and I get lots of use out of it. I just would have liked a chance to think about those two issues before I bought it (about a year ago), and certainly before I gave it for a gift.

Bosch MSM6A60UC Mixxo Cordless Handheld Blender and Chopper, Black/White Review

Average Reviews:

When i went to use the Mixxo for the first time, I was not sure how I would like it. I have had hand mixers before and they never live up to their hype. I know BOSCH makes quality products so I decided to give this a try. The first thing I attempted to make with my new Mixxo was a smoothie. I read that the foot can crush ice, so I figured that it would be able to blend up frozen fruit. I used the blender jug attachment piece and added my ingredients, I then attached the foot and turned the Mixxo on. In order to activate the Mixxo you have to hold down two buttons and then release one, this is a safety feature, but it was a little bothersome at first because i was not familiar with the machine. After a few minutes I was able to get the hang of things and the smoothies turned out great. I even added extra ice at the end and the Mixxo was able to crush the ice with no problem. On my second attempt to use the Mixxo I used the food processor attachment. This was really neat. The base of the processor has suction cups which help keep it in place on the counter. I found it very simple to hook up because the hand piece hooks on the the top of the processor. I was also very pleased with how quiet it is. I was able to talk with other people in my kitchen when I was using the Mixxo. Additionally it fits perfectly on my counter and all of the pieces except the hand piece can go in the dishwasher. It was very easy to cleanup after I was done using it. I am very satisfied with my purchase and I would recommend this hand mixer to anyone. The Mixxo exceeded my expectations. Once again BOSCH has delivered. It would also make a great wedding present or house warming gift.
***Update***I've been using this as a mini food processor and potato masher a lot over the past 2 years! It's still strong and works well.
It chops onions (with no eye pain) and peppers evenly.
It easily granulates and mixes spices, rubs and breading mixes.
It can make smooth or chunky mashed potatoes in an instant.
I love this thing and will continue using it every day until it wears out.

Cordless for maximum flexibility in the kitchen, this handheld immersion blender works great for blending batters, pureeing soup, making milkshakes, and more. A 24-ounce blender jug with measuring marks and a secure-fitting lid comes included--great for blending and storing all in one container. The kitchen tool also provides a mixing container with a chopping blade. Simply detach the stainless-steel blender foot and attach the chopper for dicing onions and green peppers or mincing herbs. The unit not only delivers sufficient power for mixing and blending, it can also crush ice and supply constant power for up to 20 minutes. Even more, the cordless handheld immersion blender and chopper features a revolutionary design detail--it's the first in the world to be powered by Lithium ion batteries. Its lightweight and long-lasting re-chargeable lithium ion battery produces exceptional power, plus it remains relatively unaffected when left plugged in after a full charge, where other batteries often become compromised or weakened. Other highlights include an LED charge-level indicator, an ergonomic soft-touch handle, a two-button safety switch, an anti-splash blender-foot design, and a charging station. The blender foot, blender jug, and lid clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. The immersion handheld blender measures 2-1/2 by 2-1/2 by 15-3/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

I have really enjoyed using this product. I need to have easy-to-eat foods, so I started using blenders and a food processor to puree meals. What a pain, and the clean-up!! Don't get me started. This Cuisinart has saved the day. I fill it with the food I want to puree, add the liquid (needs more than you think) and then pulse. First on low, then high. I may take it off an shake it, and then run a bit more, occasionally I will run without pulsing for 30 secs. or so. Its fast!! It makes a smooth puree, better than my blender, better than my food processor and much quicker. Then I put the black top on the cup and viola, ready to eat. No other dishes needed. The clean up is easy -- just rinse the blade and put the top and cup in the dishwasher. There are plenty of cups and tops, so if I want to make another flavor or a side, I use another cup. This has been indispensable for me to eat regular food--the same food I make for my family, pureed. When I want hot items, I can put the cup in the microwave before or after blending, which makes it so much easier than a blender. For my needs this is perfect. I haven't used the grinding blade yet.
I'm having fun making great puree recipes...so much so, I'm thinking I should publish a book on them, or at least share with friends who are recovering and need easy to digest foods, or easy to eat foods.

Black and Decker EHC650 2-Speed Food Chopper with 3-Cup Bowl
Average Reviews:

As a chopper to use on a daily basis, this is unbeatable. The blades are much more substantial than on other products of this size. However, you have to be very careful with the plastic bowl. The center section that holds the blade has begun to break. Currently half of the circular holder (in the middle) is gone. Although it will still hold the blade, if it breaks any more, it probably won't. I'm going to have to find a replacement for the plastic bowl. October 18, 2005 update: Guess what? I contacted Black & Decker online, and they have a company that they refer you to that handles their replacement parts. In this case they are sending me a complimentary new 3 cup plastic bowl. I wish I could change my rating upward; this is real customer service. July 5, 2007 update: Since I received the replacement bowl, I have used this appliance constantly, that is, three to five times a week. I have had no problems with the center section of the replacement bowl. February 8, 2008 update: Note that when Amazon runs this item for $12.99, it is really a screaming deal.

This is the third hand blender I have owned, and is by far the most solid, smoothest running and easiest to clean. The brushed chrome construction looks great and is also easier to clean than plastic versions. Handy features like detachable base, included mixing cup and extra long mixer are thoughtful and useful. The motor is smooth and powerful - it is the Audi V8 of the hand blender world. For the quality, brand and power, $30 is an absolute steal.

Miallegro 9080 MiTutto 450 Watt, Immersion Hand Blender, Stainless Steel w/ Whisk and Chopper Attachment 5-speed Turbo Review

I bought this product late November of 2009 and initially liked it fine. Here is what I wrote initially:
"Works fine. When you had a Braun previously, as I did, some of the parts don't stick together as easily as you are used to. Works fine though, and has a stronger engine than the Braun did. For pure functionality it deserves 4 stars."
Based on this I gave the Miallegro 3 Stars.
Now we are 10 weeks later and 2 knobs that hold the motor part and the attachments together have come off. Not good, obviously. Am now about to call customer service to get the product replaced and will update on how that goes.
But the fact that this has happened at all, shows this isn't a very well engineered product unfortuntely...
Consider yourself warned.
