Really happy with Kenwood CH 180A 300 W Hand Blender. I Have been using to chop, blend & to whisk since I bought it a few weeks ago. Kenwood CH 180A 300 W Hand Blender is sturdy & the best part is that the chopper has a good control setting. The vegetables never get mushed. I made chocolate ice cream & used it to churn the ice cream mix with icebath & the whisk & it worked really well too.
