OVENTE Immersion Hand Blender, 300W Electric Handheld Stick Mixer with 2 Mixing Speeds and Stainless Steel Blades for Smoothies, Purees & Baby Food, Red HS560R

We've had this for a while, and use it mostly for breakfast smoothies. I chose it for the higher wattage and the slimmer profile to save drawer space. Works well, feels solid, easy to clean. Blade seems sharper than the one on the Braun this replaced. The drive-to-handle connection is plastic, but substantial; I think it will hold up better than smaller metal-to-plastic interfaces that have a tendency to strip and vibrate to failure. The 'latch' between the two sections is adequate but seems a bit flimsy; I'll wager it's the weak link in the design that will eventually lead to replacement, but I don't think that's imminent.

I purchased this unit as a replacement for a much more expensive model that is packed away and inaccessible since I moved several years ago. I never used the original unit much. I believe it is a Cuisinart. But I found I had a need for an immersion blender in my cooking now, so I looked for something that I thought would do the job and not break the bank. This was my choice. Boy am I pleased with this blender. I have started using imported Italian San Marzano Canned peeled tomatoes in lieu of buying jarred marrinara. The canned San Marzano Italian whole peeled tomatoes offer better flavor and it is cheaper than paying for expensive sauces that do not use quality tomatoes. I would rather buy good imported genuine Italian San Marzano tomatoes and make my own marinara sauces for far less money and not all of the additives. I can control what is in my sauce. Enter this little blender. I use it to puree the tomatoes right in the can. No need to pull out my blender or food processor. This stores easily in a drawer and takes up little room. It does a perfect job on the tomatoes. I have used it for creamed soups as well. Again a great job. I love that it has two speeds. At 300 watts it seems to have more than sufficient power. I only have to hand wash the blade and put it away. At the price this blender does everything the more expensive Cuisinart model did. But given that the Cuisinart is packed somewhere back about 12 boxes deep in my garage, I am ever grateful for this blender at such an amazing price. I have used it many times now and it always works great and cleans up in a breeze. My kitchen appliances are all red Kitchenaid so this matches them as well!

We use immersion blenders often, and when our old one finally gave out, we replaced it with this — and it’s been a great upgrade. It handles both hot and cold ingredients easily, and the high and low speed settings are perfect for what we need in the kitchen. One of the best features is the detachable blade that’s dishwasher safe — I won’t buy anything that isn’t dishwasher safe, so that was a must. Our old blender had a lot of tiny pieces and blades to keep track of, so I really appreciate that this one is one solid, removable piece. Much simpler. The motor feels strong and consistent — no struggling through thick mixes. We especially love using it for homemade mayo — it makes the process quick and foolproof. For the price, it’s a great value and does the job every time.

I got this stick blender to replace my old one that broke. The motor is rated at 300W which is the same as my old one so I thought it would work just as well. Nope. When I make smoothies, it doesn't grind up small pieces of fruit. I think the motor is powerful enough but somehow the blade doesn't cut very well. It works great if you just want to mix some liquids and powders and things like that. But I want it to cut small soft solid things and it doesn't. I want to give it three stars but I'll give it four because it's so cheap. But based on the ratings I was expecting it to work better.

Easy to use. Easy to clean. Easy to store. Has a strong electric motor. Attachment is robust. Noise level is fine. Made a few things to put it through its paces; starting with water & soap, water rinse, thicken a starch mixture, made a gravy, cheese sauce, whipped buttermilk, then made a heavily thickened heavy whipping cream (sugar, powdered milk, vanilla extract, kosher salt, butter chunk cold, & heavy whipping cream +40% fat). It succeeded through all of it, but note it will get warm hot (stop & let it cool ≈5-10 mins). It is my new favorite kitchen tool, I got a few batches of wet ganaches to make & some marscapone too. I am confident it will handle all of it well. *In video, it was a great cup of mocha expresso, the whipped cream it made... Chef's Kiss

This immersion hand blender works great! It’s powerful, easy to use, and blends smoothies and soups quickly and smoothly. The stainless steel blades are sharp and durable, and the two speed options are very convenient. It’s lightweight, easy to clean, and a perfect addition to any kitchen.

Better than the pictures! A good looking gadget, handy for all kinds of blending. I looked at a local big box store and could not believe the prices. This is a great deal and I highly recommend!

I love this product! You do not have to pay a lot of money to get a quality handheld mixer. This one is exactly what the description is and was so easy to use. I have never had one before but I used it last night and it is perfect for blending small amounts like cottage cheese right in the container. I can not wait to use it for smoothies or maybe a shake.

excelente producto, me costó bien barata, es muy bonita estéticamente, no se ve de materiales de bajo costo, tengo varios meses ya con ella y basicamente muelo todo con ella, y tiene buena potencia y no se calienta, obvio no le doy mucho tiempo de uso porque es normal que se puedan quemar este tipo de productos, pero la verdad es que no he tenido problemas con ella, es muy facil de limpiar tambien, y todavía parece nueva a pesar del uso que le doy.

Bought this for soap making only. It has lasted for a few years without mishap. It isn't used very much while soap making so I couldn't say how it would stand the test of time for food processing. The stainless steel wand is quite thin in comparison to the one I use for food processing.

El precio está excelente, también su apariencia. Está padre! Tiene menos poder de varios otros marcas/modelos (300w), pero no es notable. Es más que suficiente. Funciona bastante bien -- y ni tira el licuado a todos los lados. La he usado para hacer licuados de plátanos y leche, y también una malteada. Hay dos velocidades, y todavía ni he tenido ocasión a poner en nivel 2. Es muy fácil a usar y limpiar. ***Tengo una licuadora grande y poderosa (1350w), pero es demasiado para usar (y limpiar) solamente para un licuado o malteado. Me di cuenta que estoy usando mi Ovente HS560R Multi-Purpose Immersion Blender casi todo el tiempo, y raras veces uso mi gran licuadora.

Great product, mixes well, easy to clean, does its job perfect!!!

Super buena calidad
