It's surprisingly well priced given its premium looks and powerful lithium-ion motor. When we used it to make soup the blender didn't give us the smoothest consistency overall, but it handled a variety of ingredients very well and was one of the fastest to reach stiff peaks when we used the whisk attachment on egg whites. Pick the Cuisinart EvolutionX Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blender if you want a cordless hand blender that doesn't cost the earth. Our KitchenAid Variable Speed corded hand blender review has more details.

The 3-cup blending jar comes with a lid, perfect for storing sauces or soup in the fridge, and we were taken with the style of the design which could slot easily into any kitchen, with a number of colors to choose from. It did second-best in our soup blending test, with very seamless blending and the variable blending paddle coming in helpful to start smoothly before amping up the power.

We found in testing that this immersion blender was a little more comfortable for our right-handed tested than our left-handed tester. Enter the KitchenAid Variable Speed Corded Hand Blender, which has a plastic cover dubbed a pan guard that keeps the 8' removable blending arm with a 4-point stainless steel blade far away from the base of your pan to give you some extra peace of mind when cooking. Immersion blenders don't always work well with non-stick pans because they can scuff up the coating with their metal blending wands.
