Oh my my... This Braun Multiquick 9 Handblender MQ9037 is by far the best kitchen product ive ever owned. It takes over all my appliances. Ive used this all week long with dinners and its made my dinner nights a breeze. I love that it comes with all different items. The mixer works like a charm and blender works better than anything ive used in the past. Very sturdy but light weight. I highly suggest this product and brand to all i know.
