Kitchen Aid Cookware: Hamilton Beach 59785 2-Speed Hand Blender with Case, Black Review

We had a Rival immersion which was highly rated for a short time before I burned out the motor making whip cream.I since bought a regular mixer for making whip cream it does a far better job than an immersion blender.

I make a lot of cream soups and it is great for that without lugging out the big blender not to mention the clean up, the blender will soon be relegated to the basement as a back up.I like the case, it puts everything in one place and easy to store away.There is a milk shake attachment which is very nice and a whipping attachment, I suppose that would be much better for whip cream.I can see a lot of shakes and smoothies coming this summer with my new toy.

Someone mentioned clean up in the dish washer, a little tip for any immersion blender.As soon as I finish with it, I fill a glass or bowl with hot sudsy water and buzz it for a few seconds and then rinse, works great and just wipe off and put away,couldn't be easier.

Another hint if you get this one.It isn't entirely obvious or intuitive that the blender comes with the attachment adapter to use the shake and mixer already installed but doesn't work with the regular blender blade.You have to twist the attachment adapter off and install the blade.It may not make sense at the moment, but when you get it you will say,ah, that is what he meant.

My initial impression of this unit is very good.

Product Description:
With the 200-watt Hamilton Beach hand-held blender, there's no need to get out a heavy mixer and bowl. Drinks can be blended right in the glass, soups pureed in the pot, and cream whipped in a portable bowl. Great for quickly blending small amounts and perfect for vacation-home use, the blender comes with two attachments: an 8-1/2-inch sharp-bladed blending wand with a protective plastic sleeve, and a 7-1/4-inch stainless-steel whisk. Both attachments twist securely onto the power handle and easily remove for hand washing. On the end of the power handle a two-speed button gives the option of low or high speed, and a five-foot cord provides good reach. A one-year warranty covers the hand blender against defects.
