Advantages

In addition to the usual versatility of hand blenders, the Dualit Hand Blender offers an amount of power usually seen in much larger blenders. This power allows you to chop ice, mix sticky or dense batters, and chop foods that you would not be able to chop with just any hand blender.

However, this blender does not just offer you power, but a way to control that power. Because you have infinite control of the blender's revolutions per minute, you can get the foods you're blending to the perfect texture. The control also allows you to conserve power and the motor of your blender, making it last even longer.

The Dualit Hand Blender also has dishwasher-safe attachments, unlike many other hand blenders. This will save you time, as you will not have to wash these items by hand. In addition, you'll be able to be sure that your blender is disinfected after the attachments run through the dishwasher.

Disadvantages

The Dualit can become hot after use, as 320 watts of power is a lot for its small plastic casing. While it does not overheat easily, the heat it generates can be disturbing and occasionally make the unit difficult to hold.

The inside of the blender handle can also be difficult to clean. Since it cannot be put in the dishwasher, you must clean a gasket and other rubber parts by hand, and they can be difficult to reach, let alone clean and dry. Because it is important that these parts do get clean and dry in order to keep the blender sanitary and make sure it continues to function properly, this can be a frustrating problem.

This Dualit Blender is also more expensive than many other hand blenders. While it also offers more features, the price can be discouraging to infrequent users or those with simple blending jobs.

Consumer Reviews

Summary

The Dualit Blender is one of the best hand blenders available. Considered professional grade, it can do almost anything that your usual mixer can do. It offers you a lot of power, sturdy construction, and infinite control, making it a useful little appliance to have around the house.

While it can be difficult to clean, that is a complaint about many hand blenders and does not undermine the unit's functionality or versatility. If you need a hand blender for frequent or heavy-duty use, or just want to make sure that your blender will be around for a long time, the Dualit is the one for you.
