Although primarily user only uses for mashing potato pumpkin
Multiquick 5 MR 550Identical multiquick "sunbeam" 5 function for price[under $90.00 & snap coupling features: whisk, blend, cut fruit veges, smoothies, mashing [pumpkin for soup] large pot 6l [although cord appliance]
Not cordless like a "braun model".
Still service friendly, multiple speed control, ease cleaning no "nasty bacteria" collecting areas left uncleaned, mentioned in some other model.
Food preparation cannot be left to "ecoli" & other forms bacteria,
Due to design "blender attachments" not being hygienically clean.
We dont use "dish washer" [old school] but hot water/soap,good personal scrub, and "inspection for bits pumpkin etc".

Reliable inexpensive[compared to our "swiss ba-mix"]
Long-lasting and very useful
Multiquick 5 MR 550There seem to be a couple of different models represented here. My Braun Multiquick is the one that comes with one small plastic blending container (no handle), one stainless steel blending wand and one whisking attachment.
I have owned the Multiquick for 8 years now and it still works perfectly. The only wear that shows is that the plastic on the blending container is not as transparent as when I bought it; it's a bit cloudy and knocked about from 8 years of blending. Being very fussy about plastics, I've stopped using the blending containe
... Read morer now. For the 6 or 7 years that I was using the blending container, I used it on an almost daily basis - to chop an onion or a carrot or a couple of cloves of garlic or a handful of herbs, to make hummous or a salsa or a pesto or dip or baby food puree. The Braun worked very well with these functions, chopping thoroughly and consistently and not leaving chunks. The container and its lid and its blade are also very light and really easy to wash - just a quick rinse for the most part. I also used the stainless steel blending wand on a regular basis. It's great for blending a soup while it's still hot in the saucepan. I also used it for blending smoothies and milkshakes in a jug. It does all these things well and simply and then the wand just clicks off and washes pretty easily (although some sticky things are harder to remove from behind the blades). I don't think I ever used the whisking attachment, because I always use my old, old Sunbeam handheld mixer for eggs and cream. Overall, I was really impressed with how well the Braun Multiquick worked and with how often I used it. When the container started looking old, I began looking around at alternatives thinking it would be nice to have something that could actually handle large quantities as well. I first tried a Magimix and then a Thermomix. Since I bought the Thermomix, the Braun and the Magimix have lived in the cupboard - but I do still get the Braun out when I want to blend a soup on the stove, because then the wand is much easier to clean than the whole Thermomix. Long-lasting, reliable, used constantly, relatively inexpensive, easy to clean, can blend hot food with stainless steel wand Need another appliance to blend large quantities (other than liquids which can be blended with the wand)
