Braun Hand Blender
I got this Braun hand blender in 2004 as a Christmas gift - one I asked for. (this link goes to the product page on Amazon because the Braun site isn't link friendly) I absolutely love it.
I had a Ronson Can-do (no longer avaliable) for years. It was fabulous. My mother had one and she gave me one when I got married. It had a can opener (thus the name), a knife sharpener, a mixer/blender, a whpper and a potato masher that made excellent mashed potatoes - the best.
Anyway, after giving me almost 30 years of service, it died (may it rest in peace in appliance heaven). I was using it daily to blend my Spiru-tein shakes (an entry for another day), so when it went, I had nothing to use except my big blender - much overkill.
I did some online research and found this Braun model - MR430HC - a 200 watt powerhouse. I'm back to happily blending my protein drinks again, but I'm also chopping up a storm. This thing is great for nuts, herbs, shallots, opins. Anything that will fit in the chopper container that comes with it. I no longer have to drag my food processor out for every little thing.
The Braun model MR430HC hand blender is available for $24 from Amazon, but there are any number of other on line stores that also feature it.
I'm giving this product 4 forks up!
