 Cool Kitchen Gadget!! June 19, 2006

I purchased this product mainly for making soups. I hated having to put soup into the blender in bathces to puree it. Not only was this time consuming but I usually made a huge mess in the process. Well this product solved that problem for me. I made a soup the other day and used this product to blend the soup right in the pot! While I was nervous about "only" being able to run the blender continuously for 50 seconds, I learned that 50 seconds is more than enough time for this item to blend a whole pot of soup, in fact it only took about 15-20 seconds.
I have also used the grinder attachment to mince fresh parsley, and have also made a smoothie using the included measuring cup and blender.
Although the manual states that you cannot run this product for more than a certain amount of time (depending on the function), I have learned that this product can accomplish those tasks easily in the time frames given (it took 5 seconds to mince my parsley!).
I cannot comment on the warranty as I have not had a problem with this item, but for the price if it fails I would most likely just buy a new one.
My only complaint would be that the whisk attachment seems very flimsy, but I have not actually used the whisk attachment yet, so I assume that it will work just fine for light tasks such as whisking egg whites. Although based on the feel of it I would not use it for much else.
However, I have a feeling that I am going to continue to find uses for this wonderful little gadget. For the price this item is a great buy.

I don't know about the warranty stuff, and I've only had this a week or so, but I love it. I always hated ladling chunky soup into the blender, thence into another bowl while I did further batches, making a mess at every stage. With this I did a big bowl of soup, put the hand blender into it and in maybe 15 seconds it was perfectly pureed. Moreover, a note in the manual led me to using it every morning to froth the almond milk I use in my latte, at which it does a fantastic job--again, 15 seconds or so and way better than you get at Starbucks (though a good barrista can still do a better job with steam). Terrific.

I have had this blender for about a year and have used it weekly for smoothies with great success. Last week I was using it to chop basil and the blade in the chopping bowl sliced into the side of the plastic bowl. Miraculously I kept and located the manual that said it had a 3 year warranty. I called the number, which told me to call another number, I was on hold a very short time. I read the customer service representative my item's serial number and she sent me a new bowl and suggested that she also include a new blade in case my blade had been damaged. Way to go cuisinart.

...not to have bought and used this product sooner. I heard wonderful things but kept putting it off. Finally after a messy and dangerous evening of pouring hot soup straight into a blender, I decided I'd waited long enough.
The design is user-friendly both from an assembly and safety standpoint (everything goes into an obvious place, and clicks when locked in) and from an ergonomic one. I found the blender very easy to hold and maneuver while I used it to puree homemade tomato soup. Within less than a minute the soup had a silkier and smoother texture than I've ever gotten with a standard blender. It was truly of restaurant quality.
Cleanup couldn't have been easier: "blend" some hot, soapy water. Done.
I'm really happy with this product and would wholeheartedly recommend it to any home chef.

I have done my homework looking for a hand blender and ended up buying CSB-77. It works better then I expected. I didn't think I'd use the attachments since I already have a mini chopper and a full size food processor, but I was wrong. The chopper is great for small jobs like an onion, a garlic clove, herbs or chocolate. The whisk ended up being "a must" - I use it to make whip cream for just the two servings of dessert I often need. I love the fact that all parts are detachable and dishwasher safe, and you can buy extra and/or replacement parts separately (not the case with some other vendors). I am very happy with this purchase, would recommend it to anyone.
