can convince me

I've tried some hand blender over the years and was sometimes more and sometimes less enthusiastic. The Philips Hand Blender HR1641 / 90 SpeedTouch there again a model that can convince me and in which the price is suitable.

DELIVERY:
I have the model SpeedTouch including shredders, which means that we have here is a Philips hand blender with 700 watts and Püriermesser, which was supplemented by a shaker for 0.6 l and a shredder for 0.35 liter capacity. With this model, therefore, the crushing of eg onions and nuts without problems is possible. Crushing of ice possible. Additional accessories such as hand blender attachment (HR1962), XL-shredder (HR1964), potato masher (HR1965) and kitchen equipment attachment (HR1967) are sold separately. Who in the household also has a hand mixer and maybe even a food processor, for the model with the small but first Zerkleiner is sufficient. An instruction manual is, however, is typical of Philips unpractical format and not all that large.

Look and feel:
Optically can me the Philips HR1641 / 90 convincing. The shape is classic and simple. The upper part is very good in the hand and I especially like the stepless speed setting via the switch provides good tactile feedback. The mixer shaft is clicked as the crusher and makes a high quality impression.

The usage:
In Philips HR1641 / 90 put 700 watts, which is quite decent. Since the speed level can be regulated, it is also possible to control how much good or crushed to be mashed. The bulbs can be so actually processed into pieces and not to mush. Especially with the onions it shows that the knives are really sharp, because the crushed pieces are almost dry and it is not the juice is pressed out. I did not manage to inject with a hand blender. Even with hot soup you have to have no safety concerns and also when the mixer is not moved back and forth, an even Mixergebnis is achieved here.
Especially can convince the Eismesser with shaker and use. In a few seconds
The sound of the mixer is in operation from the volume here also in order.

Cleaning and storage:
Since the mixer shaft can be removed separately, the cleaning is very easy under running water. The shape of the foot can be cleaned well, but it narrows towards the top, so that there already has to look to remove dried residues well. The shredder can also be easily cleaned. The knife can be found here well and cleaned separately, which is especially good because you should not, of course, give the knife in the dishwasher if it is time to keep sharp.

I can recommend the Philips HR1641 / 90 for all those who attach importance to a powerful device which also has a shredder in accessories.
