I was looking for an immersion blender and researched a few. I am glad I settled on the Braun MQ5027.
You can buy ones at half the price, but most come with less attachments, half the motor power, and often a shorter shaft. Also, the bell cap design on the Braun helps minimize splatter.
Out of the box, it includes the immersion blender, the primary blending attachment, a mash attachment, a whisk attachment, a blending cup (with built in blades), and a mixing beaker.
The attachments are easy to attach and remove. They snap in place and you press two buttons on each side at the same time to release the attachments. There are two power buttons (either one be held to operate which is good for safety). The top button has variable speed, controlled by the dial on the top). The lower button is “turbo mode”.
I have used all the attachments. This blender is great for when you don’t want/need to dirty a whole blender or food processor. I’ve mashed potatoes and they take half the time of during it with an electric hand mixed. I’ve minced onions in teh bending cup and it takes seconds and they come out smaller than doing it by hand. I’ve whipped heavy cream, egg whites, made smoothies, and also minced olives making tapenade.
Clean up is simple, just rinse the attachment(s) with some soapy water.
It doesn’t have a storage bag but won’t take up an enormous amount of space in a drawer or on a lazy Susan.
The cord is a couple of feet long, which is plenty, and it has a 3 year warranty.

I lightly used the blender over the course of two years. I would say that I used it around ~60 times in total.
I was in the middle of blending around a quarter of a cup of cooked beans, and it just stopped operating.
I would expect the machine to have many more uses than ~60 before breaking.
Because I did not get many uses from this machine, I will not give it more than 1 star, as it is not worth the price.

I had a Braun for 15 years until the blending stick wore out and I couldn’t find the part. The motor was just fine. I tried a couple of others but ended up sending them back, mostly because of the difficulty of disassembly and ease of use. Primarily the chopping cup. The lids on other models required a twisting action to remove. Then you are busy or your hands are slippery, it’s sometimes hard to take apart. Not the Braun. The lid just lifts off. The attachments are easy to line up and it’s a two button removal. I couldn’t be simpler. My only complaint is the chopper bowl is too small. It should be larger. You can buy one but you shouldn’t have to. Good news is my older chopper works with either the new or old handheld motor. That’s a win in my book. I can’t say enough good things about the Braun unit.

The whisk attachment is clearly for something else other than this blender. The shape of the base isn’t anything like the other included attachments and won’t work. The rest of the unit is perfect and does what they say but they need to make this right with me. I feel like I received a returned or used item and nobody bothered to check.

Braun is a winner in my “book” + in my kitchen. They’re a top rated brand + have been for decades. Consistently good quality.

I love this product! It has many attachments that are easy to use and clean.
Shriya –
It does the job okay, but the parts of the blender don’t fit snugly, so the blended mix leaks out of it. I would not have expected that from a known brand.

My daughter wanted “a stick blender” for Christmas. I chose this based on the reviews and it didn’t disappoint. She likes the additional attachments that come with this which are more than most brands.
