This handblender and all the accessories that come with it make it a truly great addition to my kitchen gadgets.   I love that all the attachments snap / lock into place and has a simple button to push to unlock and change them out when you need to switch from one utensil to the next.  The push button feature to make it go is really easy to use as well, you can control how slow or fast you want to chop, puree, wisk anything you put in it.  Works great for pureeing your fruits, blending mashed potatoes, chopping onions or other vegetables as directed.   I made some really great finely chopped onions and even nuts which was great because there is no way I could get them like that by hand.  All pieces are pretty easy to clean for the most part.   The only piece that takes a little extra care / effort to clean is the masher but it does create some really cool design thru the unit when you mash your potatoes:)
