KitchenAidVariable Speed Corded Hand Blender with Accessories, Aqua Sky, KHBV83AQ

I bought this to blend squash in soups. I've used it a few times and it works very well. Clean up is simple, rinse it in the sink, then 'stir' some warm soapy water, rinse, dry. The plastic guard clips on easily and protects the pan surface. It came with some accessories; the seem nice, but I haven't really used them.One thing, this unit is NOT CORDLESS. I didn't notice that when I purchased it, so was surprised. The cord isn't a big problem, but if you do not have handy outlets, perhaps you'll want a CORDLESS version. KitchenAid is a good brand, so I expect long life.

This KitchenAid hand blender is a workhorse! It's powerful enough to blend soups and smoothies with ease, but also gentle enough for purees. The variable speed control gives you tons of flexibility, and the ergonomic design makes it comfortable to use even for longer blending sessions. The charcoal grey color is sleek and modern, and it feels really sturdy and well-made. I'm so glad I finally upgraded to this – it's made cooking so much easier and faster.

Very powerful, but you can run it at a low speed so you don’t overdo it. Works very well great brand great mixer. You can start it out very slow or mix things violently high-quality feels like a professional tool in the hand. Very highly recommended. Hope this helps someone

I make my salad dressing and I love how convenient this is to use. Cleaning it is a breeze.

I bought this specifically to make mayonnaise and it works very well. I'm learning to make a lot more considering the toxic ingredients you find in most foods and the secret to living well is making your own food at home. This immersion blender worked like a charm and very quickly made an excellent mayonnaise with perfect texture and taste. I then made my own pasta sauce from scratch it the blender worked very well for that, too.I chose a corded blender because I did not want to compromise on power and also I didn't need one more effing thing to charge. I was right- it's powerful and I don't see any need for cordless.The only two things that are champagne problems are cleaning it by hand is a little difficult (getting into that small space by the blade). I used a toothbrush. (Don't worry, it wasn't mine.). And secondly it's a little loud, but I am extremely sensitive to noise (I'm autistic) but I use a headset so that's not a big deal.Overall I highly recommend this blender because it works very well and I can finally make mayonnaise and other stuff so I can stop paying a lot of money for toxic food and just make it myself!

This is a great (mandatory?) gadget to have in the kitchen. It’s super efficient for blending soups, smoothies, and sauces. Plus it’s really quiet (at least compared to some other hand blenders I owned/tested), so you don’t feel like you’re waking up the whole house every time you use it. It’s easy to handle and feels solid. The blender guard is actually super useful to protect your pans and pots if you want to blend directly in them. Price point is good to for the quality. Definitely recommended.

The best of the best!!I’ve always wanted a blender like this one and it’s a dream come true, the quality, the speed, the color, the price (got it for 77dlls tax included)The salsas, hot cocoa, chimichurri, soups, even the vegetable meals I do for my dogbabies is not impossible for this mdfkr!!!

Powerful, easy to clean, reliable
