This SmartStick Hand Blender is perfect. It's powerful enough to get my smoothies really smooth, with enough power to blend the frozen fruit with the other healthy ingredients. It's easy to use, convenient, easy to store, quiet and super easy to clean. I've had other stick blenders, but this one is the best one yet. And the price was right.
Thank you Cuisinart.

Making soup is so easy!

fromLorton, VA
The SmartStick Hand Blender changed the way I make soup. Now, I no longer have to pour hot soup into a blender, I am able to leave the soup simmering in the pot on the stove and blend it with the SmartStick. It saves me time, no messy blender to clean and my soup stays hot! It makes a great gift to all my cooking friends, I highly recommend it!

A Real Timesaver

Now that I've purchased this product and used it only once so far, I'm wondering what took me so long to decide!!! Making soup is a breeze and FAR easier than having to pour hot ingredients little by little into a blender or food processor! I'm sure that as time goes on, I'll find even more uses for this little workhorse. Of course, the Cuisinart brand pretty much guarantees reliability and longevity...

I received this hand-held blender as a gift, and it has proved itself very useful many times. I take it to the stove and make gravies instantly smooth, and puree soups just to the consistency that I prefer. No more pouring hot liquids into a blender (ouch!). It is also great for smoothies and making hot chocolate nice and frothy like Starbucks. I keep mine close at hand.

I use the stick blender for making soup, and it's perfect for that job. Rather than ladle hot soup into my blender then pour it back into the pot which usually results in soup spilled on my stove and countertop, this little tool makes the job easy and clean. Love it. I may try it for smoothies, but the blender is the perfect tool for that job.

I find my Quisenart SmartStick an indispensible addition to my kitchen tools and have given everyone in my family one. I even keep one on hand to give as a present if an occasion arises.
I cannot use milk but can make an elegant "cream" soup with my Stick and chicken stock in any soup recipe.
