Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Braun MR5550MBC-HC Multiquick Professional Hand Blender
Customer Review: My favorite small kitchen appliance
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had my Braun Multiquick for 5-6 years now, and it's still my go-to gadget. I haven't bothered buying a standalone blender or food processor because this does the job of both without taking up nearly the space. The two chopper bowls are excellent for chopping nuts, onions, etc, or for whirring up a quick pesto or salsa. The ice chopper is great for frozen drinks. Of course, the standard blender stick can't be beat for milkshakes. And your shake doesn't melt while your busy washing a big bulky blender pitcher; you can just quickly rinse the stick and enjoy your shake. I'm not sure that I've used the whisk attachment since an old-fashioned whisk is just as easy. If I were beating egg whites I might try it, but I'd probably use my KitchenAid stand mixer anyway since I'd likely be using it for the rest of a recipe anyway. I also wouldn't recommend this for heavy doughs.
