I got this hand blender a few months ago and use it muct more than I thought it would. Once I charged fully, I can just take it out to easily blend up soups, sauces, etc while they are still on the stove. The cordless feature makes it easy to grab and use without having to fumble with cords. The pan guard is also great so I don't have to worry about scratching the bottom of my pots. The handle is comfortable in my hands and comes with a safety feature which makes it safe for the entire family.
