about the lead warning....
(ignore my stars)
i just bought an Oster wand blender yesterday and it had the same warning. i got worried and researched it a little. it seems to be a new CA law that things must be labeled if they contain lead. the lead stabilizes the PVC in the cord and protects you from being shocked. the lead has ALWAYS been there, but any product sold in CA must now warn you. google it up and you will see.
Screaming bargain!
I cannot believe the low price of this blender. It compares very well to other offerings from Cuisinart and Braun (and even feels more powerful on the high-speed setting). The cord is long and flexible (very handy in a crowded kitchen environment) and the motor is unusually quiet. This was such an incredible deal, I ordered another one as a gift.
Lasted 6 months with occasional light use, then fell apart and electrocuted me
Good points:
1. It's really, really cheap.
2. This blender worked well while it worked and was easy to clean.
Bad points:
1. You have to hold down the speed button for as long as you want to run the blender. This gave me cramps in my hand.
2. Loud
3. Has a moderate tendency to splash (I've had better, I've had worse).
4. Fell apart after 6 months; the switch broke and the handle began to split. Due to the breakage I suffered a light electric shock from touching the sauce that the appliance was immersed in.
My conclusion? Spend twice as much for a good hand blender, which will last longer and save you money in the long run.
