#KITCHENAID 2 SPEED HAND BLENDER MANUAL#

This model only came with a blending cup. Its two thin blades are housed in a deep housing that made it slightly more difficult to clean by hand than other models, but all pieces other than the motor/handle are dishwasher safe. It has a rubberized and contoured handle so it was comfortable to hold and use.

There are 2 speeds and you need both hands to adjust the speed while in use, but otherwise was easy to use with one hand.

It came with a manual with 12 pages of instructions and was very easy to operate. This immersion blender had the lowest watts of those that listed watts at 220, but performed well at all tasks. Accessories sold seperately for this hand blender include: a whisk, storage case, blending jar and mini-chopper. The mayonnaise came together in a little more than 30 seconds. The broccoli soup was very, very smooth after 1 minute 32 seconds and there was no splattering and no chunks remaining. This model came with no attachments but did come with an instruction booklet with some recipe ideas and smoothie ideas. This model was one of the heavier units but its rubberized top and contouring for the hand did not make it feel heavy when blending. This unit has 5 speeds which gave it a nice level of control. We found it very easy to change speeds while blending and this model easily operates with one hand, so you can be sure to be securing the vessels of whatever you are blending with the other hand. The housing for the blades was fairly shallow which helped facilitate the cleaning and prevented the suction issue that several other models had when blending. This model was the only one that had 4 blades, which made it slightly more challenging to clean, but it was worth the effort for the blending power. When you first turn this blender on, at any power level, it starts slow and then gets to speed, which is really great for blending hot liquids and for control for more delicate preparations, like the mayonnaise. This unit clocked in with highest watts at 625, but was surprisingly quiet.

This blender felt nice in the hand and was super easy to use.
