As an avid home cook, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I have tried nearly every different kitchen appliance there is, and this MultiQuick 9 Hand Blender is top notch! I enjoy making dressings, salsas and different sauces for my meals, which is now so easy with this appliance. The different attachments make any meal so much more convenient. This is the perfect gadget to add to any kitchen!
