Obviously, there are a lot of uses for an immersion blender, but I got it to aid me in one particular task that has been nearly impossible with arthritic hands and a potato masher — smashing beans for burrito filling! Beans do not mash easily with a potato masher (they slide out from under mostly), and that was very hard on my arthritic hands and wrists. The blender did a bang-up job on the beans, which couldn’t get away from it as I moved it around, and up and down in a large, flat pan. I could’ve gotten the mixture even smoother if I’d wanted, and all in just two or three minutes. It was a bit noisy, but the vibration actually felt good to my hands, and clean up was a cinch. I look forward to using it on many other things that would be a trial to do by hand or any other method.

Do not use this blender to chop ice cubes. I tried and it shorted out the motor, tripping the circuit breakers in my house, and does so every time it is plugged in. Works great at blending thin items like soup and protein shakes, but don’t use it for thicker items like milk shakes.

i bought this item to make soap, which takes alot of stirring. this blender gets the job done asap, and was a good price.

Nice hand blender, works perfectly for what I need it to, and it was the lowest priced one out there.
