I have found myself reaching for the 7 hand blender all the time. I use it most frequently for dicing shallots and whipping iced (dalgona) coffee. It is super easy to clean and quite intuitive to use, particularly the pressure sensitive speed control. It has permanently replaced a different model that I previously had. I was given this hand blender to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I thank them for it because it's great!
