I absolutely love this immersion blender combo and it's become such an important part of my kitchen appliance collection since I bought it a few years ago. The variable speed feature is very handy and this unit is very well designed. The attachments are simple & quick to change and have a nice, strong, durable feel to them. The motor seems very powerful and it has a comfortable shape. I don't use it daily, but I do use it enough to appreciate it's versatility and well-considered design. It always does what I want it to do.
The chopper is fantastic for so many simple chores where a full-size food processor is too big to be efficient, and it's really, really easy to clean! I've used it for mincing carrots & onion when I wanted a course, sliced (hand cut) cabbage shape cole slaw, used it to blend home made cheese balls and dips and to finely chop some of the ingredients I add. Unlike so many multi-featured appliances I've had over the years, this one has been designed without annoying crevices or seems where food can get caught, or motorized parts that get dirty but can't get wet, so cleaning is a joy. I never feel like a quick, small quantity chop isn't worth doing because of prep or cleanup anymore. This gets it done, and fast.
The stick blender is very powerful and also ridiculously easy to clean and remove or attach. I use the whisk attachment infrequently, but when I have, it's performed very well.
The only slight drawback is lack of a storage system for the unit and attachments. I generally leave the power unit sitting upright, connected to the chopper base so it sits comfortably on the counter. I wish I could get a rack or some other kind of custom storage, preferably hanging wall mount, so I could store & grab the items more easily.
It's absolutely worth the extra money to get the additional attachments. They are tremendous time savers, and cut down on pain if you have any arthritis or muscular pain associated with mincing, whipping, etc. It also looks fantastic, which doesn't hurt, and the Empire Red color matches my other KA Empire Red appliances flawlessly.
I put Amazon link below. So you can check out for other reviews.
