Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this hand blender. After trying it out, my six-year-old wanted to make sauces for days, I whipped up an alternative pesto and my husband made me fresh whip cream for my birthday waffles. In short, the whole family loves this versatile, quick, powerful and easy-to-clean hand blender. This tool is so easy and fun to use, I can't get it out without the kids asking if they can use it! We love being able to adjust the speed with a squeeze of a button! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
