Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blenders
Customer Review: A very good hand blender
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought this hand blender to get rid of the problems created by the power cord on our Braun corded hand blender. The Cuisinart took care of the problem.
Pros: Very good power for blending, good battery charge life, easy to clean, clever modular construction (battery separates from motor, built-in plug and charger), does not roll off counter.
Cons: Larger and heavier than the corder Braun. This blender may be difficult to use for people with small hands. Very short people may also find use difficult as the blender is over 16" long.
The surface finish of the plastic housing is very smooth, making clean-up easy. I don't recommend washing the blending head in the dishwasher as this smooth surface may be degraded over time. The heat of the dishwasher may also degrade the rubber seal around the blender shaft. Hand washing is easy and quick.
One reviewer suggested that Cuisinart's recommendation of leaving the battery pack/charger assembly plugged in all the time was bad for NiCad batteries. This may shorten the battery life, but the charger charges them at a very slow rate; this protects the batteries from what really damages them: heat from fast charging.
As the charger draws only 1 watt of current, some may want to leave it plugged in continuously.
Current recommendations for care of NiCad batteries is to run them down until they no longer supply useful power. Don't run them down completely as was the practice in the past. The Cuisinart batteries will charge fully overnight. They don't feel warm to the touch and this slow charging rate will extend their useful life.
