Braun hand blender - MR400WH Review

I got this as a gift and at first I was umimpressed. I left it in its box for nearly a year, until I started a new fitness program. I needed to start drinking protein shakes as part of my nutritional supplementation. The shakes were horrible to say the least. The powder did not mix well no matter how long you spent stirring it with the milk.

 I then remembered the blender was in a closet somewhere and decided to give it a shot. It does an amazing job. I actually enjoy the shakes now. They are very smooth and the device cuts prep time down to nothing. Five seconds on high and voila.

 I am not a big fan of cleanup, but that is also not a problem. I just run the blade under the faucet immediately and it rinses right off. Twice a week, I throw it in the dishwasher to sanitize it.

I don't know how I ever lived without this thing. I have used it twice a day for over a year and it is still going strong.

I have never tried blending fruit or anything more solid, so I cannot advise on how well it may work on smoothies or such, but for my needs I am very satisfied with it.
