I've used this several times now. It's easy to attach/detach from the blender wand and stays in place. Purees soup to a smooth creamy texture in very little time. The wand itself is shorter than my last immersion blender and I was worried I wouldn't be able to use in a large batch of soup, I simply blend it sooner before my pot is too full of liquid. Increasing the speed, I find slow since the increments go up by one rather than a dial that you can move and leave there. Upon restarting, it defaults back to the lowest speed and you must reset your speed. So, not as quick and convenient as the one I replaced this one with but overall, it's a good product and easy to clean.
