BLACK+DECKER Handiprep Express, Immersion Blender, Chopper, Whisk, White, HB5500W

1st I wanted to state that this would be a great gift for newlyweds or anyone started out on their own because it has just about anything you'll need. Including the items listed above they also include a Recipe booklet with about 25 or more recipes, an Instruction Booklet which also has a diagram that states what each item is, and a small Quick Start Guide. One handy thing that is nice to have is the Compact Storage Base to store all the items (except for the Food Processor) and it has a place to put the metal plug part. Plus the Food Processor and the Mini Chopper have non-slip removable bases. I used the Immersion Blender & the Measuring Jar to mix my protein drink. I found out very quickly how much suction this blender has and I was raising the blender & just pulsing. Because of this power, I am certain the food processor is going to work very well and plan to use it to chop the carrots tomorrow. And then I'll need to make mashed cauliflower – the ideas are endless! Also I used the mini chopper to chop green onions that I wanted to freeze and have ready to add to various dishes. I found out that just pulsing a few times was all that was needed and got the pieces much smaller than I usually get when I chop with a knife therefore I will definitely use this mini chopper for green onions and other small quantities of produce and nuts I want to chop. (picture attached) The only con: I wish they had created an area to wrap the electric cord around the storage base but right now I'm just wrapping it around the motor base & putting the metal plug into the 2 holes provided on the base.

The Black & Decker Hand held Immersion Blender & Food Processor is awesome. I received this just before Thanksgiving and it sure came in handy. It was easy to put together and it was easy to use.It comes with an instruction booklet, a really nice recipe booklet, and a quick start guide. Their are six different appliances, an Immersion Blender,Potato Masher,Whisk,Food Processor,Emulsifying Disk,and a Mini Chopper. Every appliance got put to use in preparing my Thanksgiving meal. I used the Immersion Blender to make some homemade tomato soup. I used the Potato Masher to mash my sweet potatoes into creamy deliciousness. I used the Emulsifying Disk to create a really fresh tasting salad dressing. I used the Mini Chopper to chop veggies to add into my potato salad. I used the Food Processor to chop up an blend my ingredients for deviled eggs. This 6-in1 appliance made my food preparations effortless and when I was done it was easy to clean and store away. I wish I could have had this along time ago it made the huge task of cooking Thanksgiving dinner a whole lot easier. Now I use for it for my every day cooking, the Whisk for breakfast eggs, the Mini Chopper for homemade salsa ect. This would make a great gift for any one who loves to cook or really enjoys effortless meal prep.
