An excellent immersion blender that can do many chores. I like the ease of use and cleaning. The attachments are OK but the beater is a bit flimsy so use it carefully. I would defiantly recommend this blender. Breville stands behind their products.

I'm a big fan of Breville appliances but I have one problem with this one. You need a lot of strength to squeeze the side buttons to release attachments - hence I took one star off. I'd normally do the usual due diligence and take the product for a test drive, however my local store didn't have it in stock and I had to order on-line.

I bought this about 2 years ago for the immersion blender. I've wound up using the mini food processor a lot more than the blender and have generally been quite happy with it. Yesterday when washing the top of the food processor, I noticed a lot of water inside the plastic housing. The water shakes out slowly and smells really bad. I can't figure out how to get all the water out. I always hand wash this part. The replacement part is not in stock. I wish this part was designed better to avoid trapping water.
