I bought this a month ago. While it lives up to its advertising, it is too powerful for my needs. I need a hand blender to mix my daily coffee. This blender is heavier than what i need. I found that when using this blender with the included 3 cup mixing container, my 12 ounces of coffee (plus ingredients) splashes out of the cup. I have not tried the whisk nor the other attachment. If there was a way to use only a portion of its power, it would have been a great fit.
