7 best immersion blenders to keep on hand in the kitchen
Growing up, my mom always kept an immersion blender in our drawer of small kitchen appliances. We only used it to puree mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving — the rest of the year it collected dust. But when I became an avid Food Network watcher and discovered my love for cooking, I realized how versatile an immersion blender can be. I learned to use it to make soup, whipped cream and scrambled eggs. A few years ago, I also started selling small batch baked goods at farmers markets and making custom desserts for clients. Instead of setting up (and cleaning) my stand mixer every time I baked, I used my immersion blender to quickly whip up cake, cupcake and brownie batter.
My immersion blender quickly became a kitchen tool I couldn't live without. When I moved into my first apartment, I bought an immersion blender before I bought a mattress.
What is an immersion blender and how to use it
An immersion blender is a handheld tool that purees, whips and blends ingredients. It’s shaped like a wand with a long arm that has blender blades at the end. It's useful for anything you would normally use a blender for, like making smoothies, tomato sauce and mixed drinks. But instead of pouring ingredients into a blender’s cup, you can use an immersion blender directly in whatever you’re using to cook, like a pot, mixing bowl or deep saute pan.
Immersion blenders are simply designed and intuitive. They equip a power button and some have a speed switch — that’s it. Immersion blenders either have to be plugged in before use or they’re cordless and rechargeable. Some immersion blenders boast longer arms than others, which increases how much food you can blend at once. I recommend buying one with a detachable arm. They’re easier to clean and you can usually put the arm and blade in the dishwasher. I’ve found that the higher priced immersion blenders are heavier and have sharper blades, allowing them to blend ingredients faster and create a smoother texture.
Immersion blender attachments
Many immersion blenders come with attachments like a whisk, which I looked for so I didn't also have to buy a hand mixer. Milk frother attachments are also included with some immersion blenders. They’re useful for making lattes at home, and eliminate the need to buy a separate milk frother. Immersion blenders can also come with beakers, juicer attachments and chopper attachments that snap on to the end of the immersion blender. I make smoothies directly in my immersion blender’s beaker, and use the chopper to make (and serve) guacamole.

We rounded up some of the most highly rated immersion blenders from Shopping reader favorite retailers like Amazon, Walmart and Target. It’s a great tool to have on hand to cook with year round, and when it’s not in use, it doesn't take up much room in a drawer or cabinet.

While many people find storing a blender in their kitchen to be worth it, the smaller (and overall less expensive) immersion blender can handle a lot of the same cooking tasks with less fuss. And while they may not be right for, say, big-batch smoothies or crushing nuts into butter (which takes a lot of force), they work totally great for emulsifying soups, marinades, dressings and aïolis and, yes, for making smaller smoothies. In fact, I found that it’s pretty common to own both a blender and an immersion blender — but that the ease of the latter is preferable whenever it can be employed. “I use mine way more than my full-size blender and food processor,” Simply Recipes associate general manager Emma Christensen told me. “It stores in a drawer and you can pull it right out. There’s no transferring. It’s much easier to clean.” No matter which model you’re drawn to — likely from one of the few brands that seem to dominate the market — Cristensen’s points ring true. The immersion blender? “It’s all about convenience.”
Best overall | Best less expensive | Best even less expensive | Best simple | Best less expensive simple | Best with multiple blade styles | Best durable | Best with pan guard | Best cordless
Number of speeds: Some immersion blenders have set speeds, in which case I’ve listed the exact number you can choose from. Others have a variable speed, meaning you control how quickly they’re whirring with a dial or button that moves gradually from low to high.
Extras: Most immersion blenders come with more than one stick and blade. For this, I’ve listed all the additional attachments (whether that’s different styles of blades, whisks, or choppers à la a food processor), as well as any pitchers or cups that will give you a mini blenderlike setup.
Breville Control Grip Immersion Blender
$130
$130
15 speeds | Whisk, chopping bowl with blades, storage jar with lid
The majority of the experts I spoke to named the Breville Control Grip as their favorite immersion blender. With 15 speeds, it’s the most high-tech of the bunch. “It is on the bigger side,” says food writer and editor Alyse Whitney, “but it’s really powerful.” Food writer and editor Matt Rodbard has had his for more than five years. “For me, it’s just really brought a lot of utility when making soups and sauces,” he says. “Plus I love the way it feels in my hand.” Posie Brien, a recipe developer and writer for the food site 600 Acres, has had hers for even longer — more than a decade. “I love it,” she says. “It’s so easy to use and clean. It’s sturdy and substantial and the motor is great. I really think everyone should be using an immersion blender more often. It’s good for eggs — if you blend your scrambled eggs with one, they’ll be so much creamier and better. It’s good for smoothies. It’s good for sauces of any kind, really.” And no matter what you’re doing, the rubberized lip means it won’t scratch the bottom of any pots, pans, or bowls.
Plus there are all the attachments. “You can use the blender function to purée pumpkin or smooth out a custard for a cream pie, then swap it out for the whisk attachment to whip up some cream to top it with,” says Petra Paredez, the owner of Petee’s Pie Company in Brooklyn and the author of Pie for Everyone. “It has a cup attachment that lets you use it as a regular blender, too, so it can replace multiple tools that would otherwise take up a lot of space. ”
Cuisinart Smart Stick Variable Speed Hand Blender
$70
$70
Low-to-high variable speed | Whisk, chopper, measuring cup
The Cuisinart Smart Stick, favored by two of the pros I spoke with, has a variable speed dial that takes the handheld machine from low to high. That’s actually one of the features Christensen likes about it. “The controls are really, really easy,” she says of the stick, which she has owned for about five years. “Clearly, it’s built to last.” Chef and author Virginia Willis can certainly attest to that too — she had an older-model Cuisinart immersion blender for 15 years and only recently replaced it with this one. “I find it to be such a great tool,” she says. “Especially when it comes to making soups, it’s so much safer and easier than pouring the liquid into a blender. Plus if you’re making something like refried beans, it’s easy to control going partway blended instead of fully.”
Mueller Ultra-Stick 9-Speed Hand Blender
$35
$40 now 13% off
$35
Nine speeds | Jar, whisk, milk frother
The Mueller Ultra-Stick was a favorite of Strategist readers from a previous version of this article — and we can understand why. It has four and a half stars and close to 40,000 ratings on Amazon, with glowing reviews about the quality you get for the price. Many people noted the strong stainless-steel body and the force of the blade (it has a turbo speed setting for when you really need to kick it up). “At 500 watts, this immersion blender is more powerful than most,” says one. “The steel feels substantial, and the attachments are very easy to change.” Speaking of those attachments, the Mueller is the only one on this list that comes with a milk frother, a bonus if you like to make lattes at home.

Braun MultiQuick 5 Immersion Hand Blender
$65
$65
Two speeds | Whisk and blending jar
Cookbook author Julia Turshen uses her Braun immersion blender primarily for two tasks: making salad dressing directly inside a deli container (so she can store it in the fridge without dirtying two bowls) and blending soups, especially when she’s looking to purée just some to thicken the body. She appreciates the simplicity of its two speeds, which work perfectly for her needs without giving her too many choices, and she doesn’t “find the cord impacts my usage at all since nothing in my kitchen is terribly far from an outlet,” she says. “Most kitchens can probably say the same.” For two years, this straightforward model has held up great, Turshen says.
Cuisinart CSB-175 Smart Stick
$40
$40
Two speeds | No attachments
For an even simpler blender that also has two speeds but doesn’t come with any attachments, this Cuisinart model is all you need. In 2017, Strategist contributor Hannah Howard said it “changed he5r life” — and all these years later, she still feels the same. When originally surveying the immersion-blender landscape, Howard saw that many came with fancy attachments and extraneous features, like bendable arms, and usually went for upward of $100. She wanted something simpler, so she settled on this extremely affordable unit. “What I love most about it is that it just has two speeds,” she writes, noting that she uses the lower one for things like pesto and the higher one for smoothies and purées. “It has 200 watts of horsepower, which is plenty for a hand blender.” And since it weighs about a pound and a half, it maneuvers easily into all sorts of pots, bowls, and jars (and fits in Howard’s “tiny Brooklyn kitchen drawer”).
KitchenAid 5-Speed Hand Blender
$140
$150 now 7% off
$140
Five speeds | Whisk, chopper, pitcher, three different bell blades
Though it has fewer speeds than the Breville, this KitchenAid model has always been flexible enough for recipe developer (and soon-to-be cookbook author) Jessie Sheehan. “It’s a tool you might not think you really need, but it’s actually super-helpful,” she says. “I have a salad-dressing phobia — I always want other people to make it for me. But this really helps. I can make mayo or a fruit compote, or I can whip egg whites for baking with the whisk attachment. We have a Vitamix we use when we’re making smoothies en masse, but it’s nice to be able to make smaller portions too.” One of the attachment bell blades that come with the 5-Speed is, in fact, meant to be especially efficient at crushing ice. “It’s easy to use, and the cord has never been a problem because it’s quite long,” Sheehan says. “Plus it’s not crazy expensive.”

Two speeds | Whisk and blending jar
The GE Immersion Blender comes recommended by Richard Rea, executive chef at the Butcher’s Daughter, who uses one at home and in his professional kitchen. In the latter, he says he probably uses it even more than the commercial model they also have on hand, pulling it out for creamy soups, cashew ricotta, hummus, and all types of salsa. “It’s very strong,” he says of the powerful motor and super-sharp blades. “It breaks through nuts — even some big, bulky blenders don’t do that. And it’s super lightweight and doesn’t make much noise (a little hum, but that’s it).” Rea has had the blender in his restaurant for two years (with daily use), and it’s still performing beautifully.
KitchenAid Corded Variable Speed Hand Blender

Low-to-high variable speed | Blending jar with lid, pan guard
I’m a fairly recent immersion-blender fan, but so far, this KitchenAid model has performed great. Like Turshen, I’ve used it for bigger-batch salad dressings (it emulsifies a large amount quickly) and soup. In the latter case, I’m especially appreciative of the pan guard, which fits snugly around the appliance’s sharp metal cage but still allows the blades to whir freely. When I’ve accidentally touched the bottom of my beloved Dutch oven, it doesn’t leave a scrape. Another bonus: I own the black, but it comes in nine colors, if aesthetics are important to you.

In addition to her Breville, Whitney has this cordless immersion blender. Although it also comes with a pan guard, its standout feature is that it’s battery operated. “It’s helpful to not have a cord when I’m blending soup in particular,” she says. “You just charge it up like you would anything. And the charge lasts for a really long time — 25 uses, according to the website. I definitely don’t charge it very often.” Instead of a dial, this one has a variable speed button, which Whitney says is very straightforward.

An immersion blender usually comes with a variety of attachments and bowls. It is called submersible because it is immersed in the right container for cooking. Complete with the device there are various nozzles for different types of products. If a nozzle with knives is selected, the product will be crushed, if a whisk is selected, it will be whipped. The action of the immersion part is not limited to a certain size of container, so it can be used in pots, deep dishes and, if carefully, even in gravy boats.
Housewives value blenders for their compactness. Unlike stationary blenders, immersion blenders are disassembled into parts, stored on shelves and cleaned in dishwashers. Of course, if you need to cook food on an industrial scale, for a large family or cafe customers, then you should opt for a stationary model that works without human intervention.
Komsomolskaya Pravda ranked the best immersion blenders in 2022 and analyzed in detail the features of each.

Oberhof Wirbel E5
Oberhof Wirbel E5. Photo: handblender. oberhof.ruThe immersion blender of the popular European brand Oberhof is the best purchase for those who appreciate multifunctional kitchen appliances.

Various attachments allow you to use it to grind meat and vegetables, knead dough, whip cream and delicate milk foam for cappuccino, and even grind coffee beans and crush ice.
The blender is equipped with a powerful and efficient motor that spins the attachments up to 20,000 rpm. You can beat egg whites for meringue or make a milkshake with such an assistant in just a few minutes. The speeds change smoothly, and the soft start technology prevents splashing of products.
High-quality stainless steel blades do not dull for a long time and can handle even the hardest food. They are 80% thicker and 10 times stronger than blades of similar devices! The ergonomic handle is easy to hold in your hand. With all this, the blender is very quiet, so it will not be a problem to cook pancakes or scrambled eggs for breakfast without disturbing your family.

Bosch ErgoMixx MS 6CM6166 Bosch ErgoMixx MS 6CM6166. Photo: market.yandex.ruImmersion blender with a powerful 1000 W motor. The manufacturer does not provide information on the number of revolutions per minute. The body, leg, blades of knives are made of stainless steel, the handle is ergonomic with a soft coating. Since steel predominates in the composition, the blender weighs decently - 1.7 kg. This does not affect the functionality in any way, on the contrary - the blender is convenient to use, it is tangible and does not slip out of the hands.
Since the speeds are changed by means of a switch, and not impulsively, the hand will not get tired from working with a device of such weight. When working with a blender, 12 speeds and a turbo mode are available. The innovative Quattro Blade technology looks very attractive: the leg with four sharp blades quickly grinds food and, most importantly, does not stick to the bottom of the bowl. This is the eternal pain of blender users.
Removable parts are dishwasher safe. The grinder of this blender differs from the rest in two removable nozzles, one of which is designed specifically for mashing. The bowl has an unusual marking on the base, corresponding to the serving sizes - S, M and L. Both containers are capacious, the volume of the mill bowl is 750 ml, the volume of the measuring cup is 800 ml.

4. Philips HR2653/90 Viva Collection
Philips HR2653/90 Viva Collection. Photo: market.yandex.ruA modern model of a blender with a good power of 800 W and 11,500 rpm. The bowl and grinder are included with the standard whipping and chopping attachments. The model differs from the rest in an unusual nozzle of two whisks. She quickly whips the masses to the desired consistency and kneads the dough to the required density.
However, the standard measuring cup in the kit has replaced the travel measuring cup. On the one hand, it is convenient for athletes or young mothers who may urgently need to feed their baby on the street. On the other hand, an ordinary long glass, preferably roomy and stable, is more useful in the kitchen. The blender is equipped with SpeedTouch technology - speeds are controlled by pressing a button.
Not everyone will like manual speed control, most likely the housewives will get tired of the endless pressing of the buttons and will turn on the turbo mode more often. But when using turbo mode, there is a risk of splashing the contents of the bowl on the sides. The model is heavy, weighs 1.7 kg, this can bring discomfort. No. of modes0034

The volume of containers is small compared to other rating models. The bowls are made of plastic, the immersion part and the whisk are made of metal. Knives made of high-quality stainless steel are not subject to corrosion. The attachments are dishwasher safe.
Manual adjustment technology is called differently by different manufacturers, for example, in the Braun MQ 7035X blender, Smart Speed technology is responsible for this.

Garlyn HB-310. Photo: market.yandex.ruCompact and lightweight immersion blender with power from 800 to 1300 watts. The metal body with a matte Soft Touch coating comfortably "sits" in the hand, does not slip. The blender weighs 1.1 kg, which is quite small for a model with such power. The number of revolutions per minute reaches 16,000, this is a record rating.
The device is easy to operate mechanically - on the top of the housing there is a rotary speed switch. There is also a pulse mode, with the help of which the speed is controlled by pressing the button, and a turbo mode, which turns on the highest speed at the touch of a button. The bowl and measuring cup are equipped with non-slip rubber feet.
Thanks to its high power, the blender can grind any kind of food. The motor is equipped with comprehensive protection of M-PRO elements.

This time is enough to clean the knives and remove the dangerous item.

How to choose an immersion blender for home
The number of models on store shelves makes even an experienced chef dizzy, let alone ordinary chefs. Yes, you can buy a model to match the color of the kitchen, so that the handle fits comfortably in your hand, the backlight is pleasing to the eye and all the nozzles fit compactly into a small box in the kitchen. But still, in order to choose the best submersible blender, it is worth spending a little more time and familiarizing yourself with the important characteristics.
Purpose of use
First of all, consider what the blender will be used for. If only a baby in the family eats pureed food and drinks smoothies, then there is no point in buying a multifunctional model. Suitable standard model with whisk and chopper. To prepare the first, second and compote for a large family, all nozzles, disks and containers will be used. No doubt, in this case, a universal blender is a salvation.
Materials
When choosing a good immersion blender, the first thing to consider is the materials that make up its parts. The case of the device can be plastic, metal or metal-plastic. The main thing is that the weight of the case is comfortable for the user. Metal is heavier than plastic, but more "tangible" in the hand. If the blender body is equipped with silicone inserts, then the device will definitely not slip out of a wet hand.
The immersion part of a blender with an attachment equipped with chopping blades is commonly referred to as the "leg". The foot of a good blender should be metal. It will not warp from hard work with ice, will not stain from beets and carrots, and will not break if dropped, but will corrode if not properly dried after washing.
It is better to spend money on a blender made mostly of metal than plastic. Stainless steel appliances are more reliable and durable.
Power
Immersion blenders have different power . The higher the power, the faster the task will be completed and the better the output will be: more airy puree, perfectly whipped proteins, smoothies without lumps. Experts recommend choosing models with power from 800 to 1200 watts. A model with less power will not cope with hard products and will most likely break.
If the cooking speed is unimportant, then a blender with an average power of 500-600 watts is suitable.
It is also worth considering the type of products to be processed. If these are fruits and vegetables for puree, then a classic model with low power and a couple of speeds will do. If you like homemade nut butter, then for grinding hard nuts you need a more impressive blender, preferably with more power and stronger knives.
Number of revolutions and speeds
An important characteristic is the number of revolutions . The essence of the advantage is about the same as in the power indicator of the device. The more revolutions of the knives per minute, the faster the grinding speed. In the arsenal of blenders, there can be from one to 30 speeds. They are switched by buttons on the motor unit or a switch on the top of the case.
The requires manual shifting of the gears by a pulse mode, which is found in almost all modern models. Such control over the speed of rotation of the knives, for example, prevents food from splashing on the plate and walls of the kitchen - for this you need to slow down the speed.
Contents
All classic blenders are supplied as standard with two attachments : chopper and whisk. Multifunctional models are equipped with several chopper attachments, bowls of different sizes, measuring cups and a grinder, a small bowl with knives built into the bottom.
If you need to cook a variety of dishes every day, then the more attachments and containers, the better.
Popular questions and answers
To answer popular questions from users, Komsomolskaya Pravda turned to Alexander Epifantsev, Head of Small Appliances Zigmund & Shtain .
How do I calculate the right power for an immersion blender?
In this matter, it is necessary to proceed from the goals for the operation of the device. If you need a blender for infrequent and short-term processing of non-solid products, then you can consider models up to 500 W, Alexander Epifantsev recommends . We still recommend choosing higher power models from 800W to 1200W. This is a guarantee of high quality and speed of processing of any products.
How many attachments should an immersion blender have?
Immersion models can have 1 to 10 tips. It is considered optimal to have three nozzles - a blender, a whisk and a chopper. For those who like to make blanks, cook a variety of salads, you should look at models with additional nozzles - for shredding, grater, dicing. Such a device can replace a food processor in the kitchen in terms of its extended functionality, the expert believes.
How many speeds should an immersion blender have?
Speeds can be from 1 to 30. The higher the speed, the more uniform the consistency of the processed products will be. The optimal number of speeds is 10, summed up Alexander Epifantsev.

The blender does a good job of grinding especially hard ingredients and even ice cubes. The function is very useful if you decide to include something summer and refreshing in your menu.

The presence of the touch panel has also become a portion of the "tar" in relation to the Kitfort KT-1334. What users note is a quick breakdown, unjustified freezes during operation. Although, at first glance, everything seems to be fine, and does not arouse the slightest suspicion.

Ice in such a blender turns into fine crumbs in a few seconds, coffee beans into ground powder, fruits and vegetables into a mixture for smoothies, cocktails, rich in useful and nutritious substances.

To all that has been said, the considerable weight of the device is frustrating. Of course, we could explain this by the peculiarity of the bowl, namely, by the fact that it is made of glass.

As a result of our research, we came to the following conclusions. Among the participants in the rating, the top prize lines went to stationary blenders. This is primarily due to their high power, ease of use, acceptable cost in the household appliances market. Among the submersible blenders, there are also good models. However, due to the configuration with a huge number of nozzles, they (the nozzles), for obvious reasons, can be lost or simply lie around in different places. From a practical point of view, it is not very convenient that they need to be given a separate niche specially designed for this. Plus, due to the fact that they constantly need to be fixed and then removed, the design of the device wears out. This is fraught with its rapid deterioration, short service life.
In third place is the Philips HR3752 blender model. It is characterized by - performance, capacious bowl, convenient mechanical control. The design itself is quite ergonomic, so it does not take up much space, being a good addition to any kitchen interior.
Kitfort KT-1334 took the second place. Increased power and due to this high-quality grinding of ingredients, a convenient control system, optimal dimensions make the blender one of the best stationary devices on the market.
The standout blender Garlyn S-300 is the overall winner. The value for money is very favorable. The blender, due to its high power and complete set with a durable glass bowl, perfectly copes with grinding hot ingredients - for making cereals, mashed soups and other dishes.
