Customer Reviews KitchenAid KHB1231 2-Speed Hand Blender

I bought the KitchenAid Hand Blender to match my KitchenAid Diamond Blender in this most amazing shade of yellow, and I must say it works perfectly. The power is strong without it being too loud; it is easy to operate, clean, and assemble. The color makes me so happy! Slowly, I plan to transition to almost all KitchenAid products. I have yet to be disappointed! Highly recommended!

I bought this a couple months ago because I am drinking a healthy shake every single day and wanted something that would allow me to make it quickly and easily without having to use an entire blender. I absolutely love this little thing - it's portable and makes my morning shakes so easy!

Wonderful birthday gift which I have used many times already.

Easy to use and beautiful when my husband leaves it out on the counter.

This is a great tool for making a big batch of soup (pureing vegetables), so much easier/faster with less cleanup than breaking out the major food processor and having to process it in batches.

I wish I had thought of purchasing it long ago. I have used the hand blender several times in hot blending situations( i.e. butternut squash soup, mashed cauliflower, fruit smoothies). Takes the worry out out of blending hot foods. Again I think this another quality KitchenAid tool. The only problem I had was attaching the shaft to the motor. Direction could be clearer. Once I solved the problem of lining everything up it was clear sailing.

This hand blender makes it easy to puree soups and applesauce to the perfect consistency. Works like a charm and the color is great!

I've been wanting an immersion blender for awhile and finally decided to treat myself. I bought this Kitchen Aid immersion blender and absolutely love it. It's easy to use, easy to clean, is well made and works magnificently. I used it to pure soup and it made the whole task so simple and easy. I highly recommend this product!

My husband uses this every morning for his smoothie or egg drink. Powers through just about anything!

I do not know how I got on without this in my kitchen. It is lightweight yet powerful and I use it almost everyday.

I've resisted buying another appliance, I just don't have storage space. Finally decided to cave and so happy I did! Love making soups & sauces and this blender is perfect

I love my purple Kitchen Aid Hand Blender! My son is on a special diet and it requires a lot of soups and smoothies...and this works great for that!

I LOOOOOve my new immersion blender that I purchased from KaTom Restaurant Supply!! I was skeptical at first, since I have never tried an immersion blender and have only used stand mixers in the past, but it works better than I ever expected! I knew that this was a keeper after the first time I made my homemade, no-bake cheesecake, and the batter came out smoother than ever before! If you aren't sure whether you should purchase this product or not, I say DO IT!

I bought this in addition to a new Mixer and Food Processor that are both 20 years old and never had issues or problems. This is amazing to use, large enough for my needs, and a welcome addition to my Kitchenaid family of appliances.

It matches my other Kitchen Aid products. I found that you need good reliable equipment amd Kitchen Aid meets that quality.

This was a gift, and I could not be happier. So easy to use and clean. I have made many of smoothies, and to mix simple items. I rather use this then taking out my mixer.

I have only used this once but am very pleased with it. It was very easy to use and only took a few seconds to smooth the lumps out my home made tomato sauce. I used it right in the pot on the stove while it was boiling hot. It did not make a mess of the stove and the blender was easy to clean after. Nice & compact to store and keep handy. I'm sure I will find many more uses for it in the future.

This is a very handy item to have. Does a great job on finishing cream soups right in the pan. Mixes pudding in seconds. I also use it for smoothies and mixing a single serving in the cup is just perfect. Love the blender.

I bought this blender a month ago. It is so convenient for blending fruit juice and milkshake. Now I can enjoy fresh blended juice and milkshake everyday. I love it!

Pros: Excellent blending and chopping; long neck is good for deep immersion; neck detaches making it easy to clean and store; overall easy to clean; quiet enough; sturdy cord; good price. Con: the control buttons are a little awkward to use, but are basically OK.

Sturdy, reliable appliance. Does really well when it comes to making soup. Nice and clean during operation.

The unit is fast (speed wise) I cooked a 'sauce' and then needed to puree the ingredients to make a thick sauce. I didn't realize the fast spin and over pureed! Nice unit!!

I have already recommended it to a friend. It is a nice upgrade to my kitchen.

Works great. Easy clean up and quiet. Blade comes of easy.

Sometimes there are tasks that a fork or whisk just can't handle, but getting a mixer out isn't what you need. The hand blender is perfect for those tasks and the included container is handy for those small jobs. It's quick and easy to clean.
