The device makes us a solid and high quality impression, especially through the metal blender. After commissioning of the hand blender in the Christmas season has already made a variety of services. The comparison with other devices rather small 400 W were in our experience perfectly adequate for all tasks (pureeing soups, making pesto). To date, the unit had no problems with a lack of power. Very practical is the removable bar, which allows the cleaning in the dishwasher. Previously this went smoothly and has contributed with us to accept this unit. On the supplied plastic shaker we could do without. This makes rather a cheap impression and raises the question of how long this is likely to persevere with intensive use.
All in all a solid piece of equipment at a great price.
