Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this hand blender.

I’ve used this handheld mixer to purée soup, make whipped cream and mix a milkshake with ice cream and crushed Oreos. It worked great at all of it. 

I especially like how good it is at making whipped cream. Using the beater attachment and the provided cup, it make whipped cream quickly and mess free. My prior hand blender could not do whipped cream so I love this feature. 

The mixer is a nice size and weight. It’s easy to hold with one hand. The variable speed button was new to me and it was easy to figure out. It’s very intuitive. Your finger will automatically ease off the button if you are mixing too fast. It helps to control splatter. 

The only thing I wish it had was a cap for the cup it comes with. 

Overall, I’m very pleased with this blender. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
