The Cuisinart EvolutionX Cordless blender is a great little appliance. First of all it’s cordless so you can use it anywhere, second it comes with a whisk attachment which is great for making whipped cream. A beaker is included which is handy for making smoothies. This a nice appliance for blending up soups and I love using it for milkshakes. I’ve also mashed potatoes with it. I think this a nice appliance and would make a great bridal shower gift.
