Well Constructed

Well constructed ; Holds charge well*/ NiCad battery ; It blends and is comfortable to use ; Newegg had a great price when I purchased it ; If you read the booklet that comes with, it states to never use over 1 minute without letting it cool 1 minute....

Excellent product - a must have

Any immersion blender is an invaluable asset in the kitchen. The Breville cordless hand blender kicks it up a notch by freeing you from the cord. It works extremely well and having both the metal mixing and plastic smoothie shafts is a real convenience.
