Cuisinart SmartStick Hand Blender - CSB-77

For about 4 years, the wife and I have been using our trusty Braun hand blender. It has never failed us and has been the focal point for our world famous chilled & hot soups. No complaints. Then came the fateful day where the old blender tried to leap from one counter to another and failed. I swiftly grabbed the Master Card and headed to ABTelectronics.com and started to compare units. Like cloth shopping, I make my decisions based upon features followed by price. All stainless construction for easy cleanup, quick connect/disconnect for the accessories (no clumsy twist lock with some other models - specifically, the now deceased Braun), larger head for swift blending, whip attachment that actually works and the big bonus was the small chopper attachment which is perfect size when you need something fast yet don't want to drag out the big guns. Sexy? I did mention that observation in the title and often don't often make that reference, but when you look at the overall design of the unit coupled with the color scheme you get that 'wow' feeling - it is a sexy hand blender.

Very handy kitchen item

Terrific for pureeing soups and chopping veggies. The uses for this item are numerous and I'm thrilled with my purchase!

To Do Small jobs when I am cooking just for myself. Great for making Homemade Mayonnaise - so much fresher than store bought, and less expensive

Light, Easy to use, space saver, many actions in one item worth every penny.

I wanted a stick blender & this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. It is just perfect!

Product came with all the attachements you could want for a great price from ABT.

Blending sauces, soups, and making frozen drinks. Also, I use it to make humis.

Couldn't be more pleased with this excellent tool. Chopper attachment not so huge like others. Easy to clean and store. Very good for dry hard cheese processing.

We really liked it are using everyday to prepare food for our 7 months old. So far we haven't seen any cons. We are very happy with it and would buy again.

Great for finely chopping veggies.

This was a wonderful surprise. It is powerful and yet easy to use. It does not take up the space of a blender and does a better job than mine. It doesn't splatter!!!!

Probably one of the best Cuisinart products out there and well worth the cost.

I am very pleased with the product and I wish I had it before now. Great kitchen tool.

Very easy and good to use, but it doesnt come with hanger thats it only drawback.
