Braun hand blender - MR400WH Review

I purchased the Braun hand blender after attending a fund raiser for our local school district. We live near Philadelphia and had the opportunity to participate in a demonstration of cooking techniques with Bernard Perrier, brother of Georges Perrier of Le Bec Fin fame.

Bernard was demonstrating a variety of items for us and he came to a sauce he wanted to lighten. He pulled out his hand blender which he affectionately referred to as his "whiz whiz". Immediately his sauce started to lighten up and double in volume. We were all amazed and fascinated not only with his cooking skills but his marvelous gadgets.
I have personally used my hand blender to make super, creamy hot chocolates in the winter, buzzed a pot full of potato and leek soup to perfection and used Bernard's technique to lighten many sauces for a holiday dinners and everyday affairs. I have successfully used it in a variety of situations both hot and cold with equal success.

The Braun hand blender is lightweight, efficient and hard-working. It comes with a couple of attachments that are very useful as well. Everything is easy to clean and even easier to use. I have convinced numerous friends and family members to purchase one for themselves as well as given them out as gifts to aspiring cooks.

Bottom Line: This is a great appliance for numerous jobs that takes very little space in your kitchen. Keep it handy though, because I believe you will use it a lot!
