This product is absolutely amazing. I use it for soap making and it outperforms every expensive blender I have tried. The only downside is that the base is not detachable, which is the reason I have had to move on. However, the blender works like a dream and is easy to use for those with weak hands. The motor is also long-lasting. I only docked 1 star because of the non-removable base. It can be a bit difficult to clean underneath the blades, but using a long bristle brush or washing the blender immediately after use solves this problem.

I purchased this hand blender in January because I was going to be staying at a friend's house for over a month and she did not have one. I already have a more expensive one that I use daily for my morning bulletproof coffee and other tasks at home, but I didn't want to pack it for my trip. I ordered this inexpensive hand blender and had it shipped to her house, intending to leave it there since she didn't have one. I was pleasantly surprised by its performance. It not only worked well for my morning coffee, but it could handle almost any task that my more expensive blender could. If I had any complaint, it would be that it doesn't easily come apart for cleaning. However, I found that rinsing it immediately after use and giving it a whirl in warm, soapy water did the trick. For the price, it exceeded my expectations.
