        Love the changeable blades
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the Kitchenaid hand blender I had for years. I love this one too. It looks cool, and I like the different bell blades. I appreciate its powerful motor sound. Not as high pitched as another brand I used to have.

          Sturdy and easy to use
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this device only for pureeing soups, and I like it very much. It is sturdy and easy to use. The protective case is great for storage.

            Great till it breaks
            We have this set and i really enjoyed it but last week the blades stopped engaging. The middle piece (arm extension) appears to be broken at the attachment on the upper side where it attaches to the motor. No more fruit smoothies :( Tried to use the chat feature on the website but that didn't engage either.

                    Powerful and Compact
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago. I just wanted to make a frozen smoothie. I was surprised by its power. The drink was perfect. This hand blender replaces many items. I have a very small kitchen with little to no extra storage space. Because of the case I'm able to store it with ease. I love this blender and all its features.

                      This KitchenAid Immersion blender is very powerful. It is actually better than my old KitchenAid blender. I love the case that stores the blades. My kitchen is extremely small with very limited storage space, so this configuration works very well for me. It meets my needs quite well. Delivery was quick. Thank you Home Depot.

                      Universal food processor
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hand blender works great for for our house hold. We are only cooking for two so this cup food processor is the perfect size. We make a lot of soups so the hand blender makes great creamy squash and potato soup. We love this blender for frozen berry smoothies. Versatile and easy to clean because of its small size. Highly recommend this product.

                        Looks pretty, but will start malfunctioning aoon
                        I was so excited for this multipurpose tool. It seemed like a great addition to our kitchen Around 10 months in, I noticed the power was decreasing and now literally a paper napkin can stop the blades from spinning. Idk if the motor is giving out or the attachments don't sync up well anymore, but it just doesn't like to work. Takes up a lot of space for something that dies in a year

                            Took a little time to figure out how the attachments worked however works really great. Mixed up some strawberry and banana smoothie's and whipped up some pudding. Well pleased with this unit.

                            Almost perfect immersion blender
                            I love the versatility of this blender. It's quiet and really powerful. Love all the attachments. I gave it a 4 star for one reason only.........I have arthritis in my hands and wrists and it's difficult to keep the power on with the current push and hold control. Would find this PERFECT if it had an off/on rocker switch instead.

                              Superb value, Well-made and Does-it-all
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fresh from the box, a quick clean in soapy water and I blended my Tomato Bisque while it sat, piping hot on the stove - perfection! In my experience, KitchenAid consistently produces long-lasting, high quality products so I was delighted to find this immersible hand blender that I had been seeking to assist me with certain tasks in my cooking. As you see in the ad's photo,, this package includes blender and most common food processing attachments too and the set comes in a sturdy plastic case to protect each piece. KitchenAid's intuitive set has replaced no less than four bulky small appliances ! And, I believe this set will make an impressive gift, too.

                                The chopper was useless. Just moved food around. Didn’t chop at all! Ginger, carrots, beets, potatoes, tomatoes onions...failed! Also too many useless attachments and the power was not great either. The only positive was Home Depot customer service was great in price matching and return.

                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Blender is so easy to use, and has all of the attachments you need right in the case. I am so glad I went with the KitchenAid Blender because it is such a great product. I use it all the time.

                                  Purchasing thru Home Depot was the easiest, I appreciated being able to do that.As far as the blender itself, I really like it but I was disappointed in the chopper. I’ve put herbs in and ended up doing them by hand. Also tried to chop whole almonds and that didn’t work either?

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was recommended on a Facebook cooking page that I’m a member of and I am so happy I bought it! It has replaced my stick blender, my small food processor, my hand blender and even my regular blender! (I’ll keep my full-sized blender for larger jobs but I no longer need to leave it out in the counter). Definitely recommend!

                                      Best hand blender
                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first hand blender and i really love it. Lot of indian recipes require blending hot mixtures of sautéed onions, with ginger garlic and tomatoes to make thick consistent gravy for dishes like paneer butter masala, malai kofta etc, and I can do that in the pan without having to move ingredients to a blender. I really liked the pan guard that came with it. Its great when working in non stick pans. Works really well to mash hot potatoes for making stuffed potato paranthas. I also used the chopper attachment few times and so far I did not have any problems. The cleanup is also very easy.

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this as a replacement for a very old immersion blender. Love that this one comes apart and can be cleaned in the dishwasher. It has many different attachments.

                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mixer has options and versatility that seem limitless. With this baby I'm making things in the kitchen I once only dreamed of doing and with so much ease and control. I can now blend hot soup into a cream right in the pot. Now it never leaves the pot. Amazing. And making milkshakes is a breeze. Plus I love case. It makes it easy to store.
