This is the second Cuisinart hand held blender that I've had in the last (10)+ years. The first one lasted a longgggg time and the replacement version (this one) is even better.
On a daily basis, I make protein smoothies (among other uses) and this blender really performs well- combining various fruits, etc.; it works wonders, blending everything in seconds.
Clean-up is a breeze as you just push a button and the metal part detaches for cleaning purposes.
