Q: Is it strong enough to crush ice?

submitted by G - 5 years ago
  • A: If any immersion blender could, it'd be KitchenAid's. They're the best you can get

Q: Is the cord the only part that causes the prop65 warning? The earlier answer did not answer this specifically. Yes the cord causes prop 66 warning, but are there more parts that cause this warning as well?

submitted by Kate - 4 years ago
  • A: Chlorinated Paraffins leaking from the componentry is the likeliest reason for Prop 65 warning.

    submitted byKatya - 5 months ago
  • A: Hi Kate, The warning in your Use and Care Guide is printed in order for Whirlpool Corporation to be in compliance with California state law. In the State of California there exists what is referred to "Proposition 65." Proposition 65 is the California Safe Drinking and Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. Any company that operates in California, sells its products in California or manufactures products that may be sold or brought into California is subject to Proposition 65. Since our products are sold in California, Proposition 65 applies to us. Proposition 65 requires warning labels on any product that may contain or produce any of the 600-plus elements that the California Air Resources Board considers carcinogenic or a reproductive toxicant. These elements include lead (contained in the solder used to attach electronic parts to the printed circuit boards), brass, PVC and a multitude of other everyday elements and gas products burn fuels (natural gas or propane) that contain trace levels of chemicals on the list. This list also contains a wide range of naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals, including common household products, foods, drugs, dyes and solvents. Whirlpool is committed to manufacturing safe and high quality appliances, as we always have done. Should any product contain or produce even the slightest amounts of chemicals on the list, even when accepted and regulated concentrations are not exceeded, Whirlpool will liberally warn consumers even though we fully comply with the Act.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This arrived right in time for me to make fresh salsa. The assembly was simple and easy to put together, and using it was a breeze. It is not a constant blend, rather a pulsing blender that operates by pushing a button until you achieve the blend you desire. It comes equipped with the blender and a container with a lid for blending and storing. This is a powerful hand blender that blended this delicious salsa in minutes. I am excited to use it for more things like soups and smoothies!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kitchen aid is always a high quality product in great colors! The pan guard is a great attachment I would have never thought of! Corded can sometimes be annoying depending on where the outlet is, but not the end of the world. Worked well to make sauce and excited to use it for more!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to try this corded hand blender from KitchenAid. I was thinking of all the food I could prep with it and then New England decided to have a heat wave of temps close to 100 degrees. My husband asked if I could make frozen lemonade with it and I said let me try! It was a perfect blend- held up great against the crushed ice and blended smoothly. Super quiet for a mixer and such an easy clean up. When it cools down outside I can't wait to make homemade tomato soup!

I wanted to make mashed potatoes but had nothing to mash. Them with. This came in handy. I’ve used it to make whipped cream, blend cottage cheese and strawberries and hope to make mayo soo. It is super quiet and so easy to clean.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you for sending this in exchange for an honest review. This blender is handy to have in the kitchen. You can make so many recipes with it easily but just inserting in the main pot and blending away. It works really well and doesn’t make too much noise. This brand is very well known for making quality kitchen tools so I know that this product will last me a long time. Great to buy

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find the KitchenAid Corded Hand Blender powerful and versatile, with multiple attachments, ergonomic design, and consistent performance. I use it to make purées for my little one, so far it works well for that. I do have to add that I think the cord does limit mobility. It’s easy to clean and it is not loud.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hand blender is perfect for making sauces in one pan, especially if you hate transferring back and forth from a blender like me. It’s quieter than a blender too and super easy to clean. My only issue is the cord limits usage if your wall sockets are far away

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hand blender was better than I expected! This blender works great to blend or puree. It is heavy-duty, but still light enough to easily maneuver. The mixer isn’t overly loud during use, which I appreciated as well. Incredibly easy to clean. The motor can be wiped, the mixing portion cleansed by hand, and all other pieces are dishwasher safe! Definitely recommend!

The best part is the protection seal for the blades to story safely and my most favorite thing about this hand. Blender is where you can blend small portions right inside the cup that it brings. 10 out of 10
