Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect for smoothies and milkshakes!! Comment: This is an awesome immersion blender! I bought this just to have a quick way to make smoothies and milkshakes for me and the kids, and it has been such a time saver! You can measure your fruit for your smoothie right in the mixing cup and you have a perfectly blended shake in seconds! I love the fact that the mixing piece detaches from the handle. Makes clean-up a cinch too. I'm sure we'll find other uses for it around the kitchen. It is so handy! Customer Rating: Summary: This hand blender is easy and fun to use! Comment: This hand blender is awesome! I should have bought one earlier! I made a delicious smoothie this morning and it's such an easier clean-up job than a regular, bulky blender! Perfect for individuals. Can't wait until I try to make gravy and soups! Customer Rating: Summary: Awesome product Comment: I love this immersion blender. I can make smoothies and soups daily and it makes fast work of the prep. It's nice to be able to control the consistency. Highly recommend. Easy to clean.

Customer Rating: Summary: Nice Power Comment: I've read the reviews and I liked the price. After a couple of weeks worth of research (reading reviews and looking at other handblenders at Target and Macy's home) I decided to buy the smartstick. I've owned it for over a month and I am impressed overall by this product.
Pros:
