KitchenAid Cordless Hand Blender Review: Should You Splurge on this Brand Name Blender?

KitchenAid Cordless Immersion Blender Kit Review
The KitchenAid Variable Speed Cordless Hand Blender comes with the 'immersion blender' motor itself, plus a charging cord. It has a chopper bowl attachment, a 1-litre pitcher with a lid, a stainless steel immersion blender arm with a detachable pan guard, and a whisk.

Variable speeds using a trigger
This Hand Blender uses a variable speed trigger switch, allowing you to adjust the speed with the firmness of your press. The switch has a secondary safety button and both must be squeezed to run the blender which I think feels a little awkward at first!

The variable speed is designed to allow you to blend up a smoothie and increase the speed when needed. You can also use a low setting for situations where spilling or splashing might be a concern, so that's great.

Immersion blender
The Hand Blender comes with both a whisk and a blending arm, where the blending arm is made specifically for smoothies, soups, dips, and milkshakes.

Detachable Pan Guard
Some immersion blenders can be hard on the bottom of pots and pans, particularly non-stick utensils.

Chopper: Mini Food Processor attachment
The 2.5 Cup chopper attachment can be used to chop firmer foods like cheeses, nuts, celery, or carrots. The chopper works efficiently, the pieces fit together quickly and easily without any fuss.

Whisk Attachment
The whisk attachment is for foods that benefit from air being introduced such as egg whites, mayonnaise, vinaigrette, or whipped cream.

Clean up
Talking about cleanup, the blending arm, and pan guard are both dishwasher safe, as are the pitcher and chopper parts; though it's recommended for the top rack only.

Battery life and charging
KitchenAid claims that the Hand Blender is capable of blending 25 bowls of soup on a single charge (based on a 12-ounce bowl of Tomato Basil soup). I didn't test it exactly like that but in my couple of weeks of trying it out, it was close enough.

Overall review: KitchenAid Cordless immersion blender kit
Overall, I really like this unit because it's powerful and handled all my home cooking tasks easily. I also loved the variety and versatility of the attachments that this one came with.

The downsides? The pressure trigger is hard to manipulate in small increments; it's fairly easy to squeeze it too hard and end up on full with spatter everywhere! You'll probably get used to it over time but it's not ideal. You also can't use this device when it's charging, but the quick charge feature does help with that.
