We blended mayonnaise for three minutes, noted how easy to was to keep holding the blender and how much the handle warmed up.

Type of blender: Ninja makes a variety of different blender types to fit into your kitchen and your cooking routine.Ninja Twisti: Our best overall comes from this line and is currently the only model in this line. It features the large built-in tamper pitcher and the blade is a smaller, easier to clean version compared to other full-sized models. Generally, blender blades aren't the right shape forfrothing or foaming milk and can't produce the same quality foam as dedicated milk frothers. You also need to heat the milk beforehand, unlike frothers, which also heat the milk. If you want an appliance for lattes and cappuccinos, some immersion blenders have specialaccessories for milk frothing, like the KitchenAid 5-Speed Hand Blender and Bamix Mono M133. Design: Look for a model that's compact enough to store in a kitchen drawer. Though immersion blenders are easy to clean, we prefer models that have a removable blender attachment that is dishwasher-safe. Almost the same way as we do with full-size and personal blenders, with some small differences.We measure blending arm lengthas well as other dimensions.We don't crush a dozen ice cubes at once with an immersion blender like we do for full-size blenders. Immersion blenders aren't given a capacity score since even if a beaker is included, you can use the blender in your own container. We made soup, houmous and smoothies with each hand blender, running each ran for the same length of time, on the highest setting.

Ninja Professional Plus: This line of Ninja blenders offers fewer presets and more basic design. Ideal for an individual that knows their way around a blender, how long they want to blend for and what speed would work best for an ingredient, these tend to be cheaper than other lines as well. The best hand blender in the budget range we've tested is the NutriBullet Immersion Blender. This simple blender doesn't come with accessories like a beaker or a pan guard. Still, its blending performance is comparable to pricier blenders' like the KitchenAid Variable Speed Corded Hand Blender. It makes a fairly smooth blend with fibrous vegetables like kale and broccoli, so it can produce well-blended soups and sauces. There's also a whisk included for making whipped cream or hollandaise sauce. The best hand blenders produced silky-smooth foods with a consistent texture. The worst left lots of chunks behind and our hands tingly after use from the large vibrations. Endurance The best are comfortable to hold, even with reduced hand strength, the worst vibrated a lot and were uncomfortable to keep hold of after a minute or so. Washability However, if you frequently cook several portions at once, or do lots of baking, you might want to consider a food processor or stand mixer instead. These take up more space, but are better for this.More power comes in the form of a Turbo button, while a host of accessories make pureeing, blending, chopping, crushing ice, whisking and mashing super-easy. There are even storage lids included for both containers. Fuss-free, easy to clean and plenty powerful, the Morphy Richards Total Control Hand Blender is a versatile kitchen tool that will be your go-to for almost any food-prep task.
