So be sure to keep receipts and send in the registration card. Including the most expensive ones, some, but not all, fail within the first 4 months of use. The main thing to remember, to my mind at least, is, according to a study done by "Cook's Country" a few years back, you'll be hard-pressed to find a stick blender that isn't made in China. If you want to have a matching blender and goggles like Soap Queen Anne Marie, I think Bramble Berry still has them. One of the kitchen ones came with attachments like a handy dandy chopper for chopping up herbs to infuse in oil. I currently have 4 SBs - one for soap one for lotion 2 for kitchen use. LOL That's when I bought a Cuisinart with a steel shaft, on sale at Bramble Berry. It lasted 9 years before it melted while making glycerin LS. My first SB was an Oster that I got at Target for $10. I bought one at a garage sale for $5 and found one at a thrift store and bought it for $5 as a back-up. I wouldn't do that with a one piece blender - too top heavy.Ĭlick to expand.A lot of soapers have a Braun. I say this because I like to leave the bell submerged in the batter so it lessens the chance of air bubbles. It's better for cleaning, and if I need to pause for some reason I think it is safer to be able to detach the motor. I would look for one that comes apart - that feature is the only thing that is really important to me. If they are both clean, I will use that one first. Having used both, I prefer the trusty old Braun. A couple of months ago, because I was beginning to worry that it might conk out and I had coupons like crazy, I was able to get a new Kitchen Aid stick blender for $11. When I started making soap, I took an old (15+ years) Braun stick blender from my kitchen.
I can't speak for others, but here is my experience. You want one that will get the job done and hold up. I think 'trusty' would be a better adjective than 'good' when it comes to a stick blender.
