I want to give good review abt this product. the most notable this about the philips HR 1459/00 300 W Hand blender is how easy it is to hold., thanks to an ergonomically shaped handle with a soft touch, non-slip coating. Besides being relatively light, its also well balanced. I started our test by trying black forest cake which became so yummy!. after use it is very easy to clean and very light weight product. this performs its functions well and its powerful performance is faultless. however while it will take care of everyday jobs, it lacks useful extras, such as a mashing leg or good sized jug.
