I have always wanted this type of hand blender, because I thought it would make mixing easier and take up a lot less room.  I really like it alot.  It was easy to use and I was amazed at the attachments and what all I could do.  The only difficulty I had was the handhold with the motor in it, it did get heavy the longer I used it.  I would recommend this to anyone, especially if you live in a small place with not a lot of room.  The whole product is easy to wash.  I do wish there was directions to put the product back in the box, because I like to put my appliances back in the box when I am not using them.  The how-to  instructions were extensive with pictures to help you use the products.  There are also recipes.  I also like the hand control where I can choose the speed I want.  Again, I would recommend this product.
