4 in 1 Hand Blender Set, 700W with Chopper, Whisk and 700ml Cup
This 4 in 1 hand blender set brings blending, chopping, whisking and mixing together in one compact appliance. A 700W handheld motor unit with two speed buttons drives a stainless steel blending stick, a stainless steel balloon whisk and a food chopper bowl, and a transparent 700ml measuring cup is included for smoothies, shakes and small batches.
The attachments are detachable and interchangeable on the motor unit, so one appliance does the work of several tools and takes up far less cupboard space. The black and silver finish suits a modern kitchen.

Blending
The stainless steel stick blends smoothies and milkshakes in the 700ml cup, purées vegetables for babies or soups, and makes sauces, dressings and dips. Hot soup should be cooled before blending, as the listing advises. Keep the blade under the surface of the food before switching on, and move it gently up and down; this stops splashes and gives a smoother result.
Blending straight in a pan or jug saves pouring soup into a jug blender and back again, which is the main reason a hand blender is so handy.
Chopping
The chopper bowl prepares small batches of onions, garlic, herbs, nuts and vegetables in seconds. Cut ingredients into rough chunks first, do not overfill the bowl, and use short bursts so you can stop at the texture you want, from coarse for salsa to fine for a curry base or a green chutney.
It saves time on everyday cooking and spares your eyes when chopping onions.
Whisking
The balloon whisk beats eggs, whips cream, mixes light cake batter and makes dessert creams. Start on the lower speed to avoid splashing, then switch to the higher speed once the mixture starts to thicken. For whipped cream, use chilled cream in a deep bowl and stop as soon as soft peaks form.
Two speeds give enough control for most home baking without the bulk of a stand mixer.
Safety and cleaning
Always unplug the motor unit before fitting or removing attachments and before cleaning. The blades are sharp, so handle the blending stick and chopper blade by their plastic parts. Rinse attachments straight after use so food does not dry on; a quick blend of warm soapy water in the cup cleans the stick blade.
Never put the motor unit in water: wipe it with a damp cloth instead. Dry every part before storing the 4 in 1 hand blender set together.
Why a 4 in 1 set
A full-size food processor, a jug blender and a hand mixer take a lot of space and cost far more. A 4 in 1 hand blender set covers the everyday jobs of all three for a small kitchen, a student flat or anyone who cooks smaller amounts, and it is quick to get out, use and wash.
Everyday recipes
Breakfast smoothie: banana, a handful of berries, yoghurt and milk in the 700ml cup, blended on speed two until smooth. Lunch: blend a pan of cooled vegetable soup, then reheat it gently. Dinner: chop onion, garlic, ginger and chilli in the chopper for a curry base. Dessert: whisk cream for a trifle or a pavlova. The 4 in 1 hand blender set handles all four without changing appliance.
It is also handy for baby food: steam vegetables or fruit until soft, let them cool, and blend them to a smooth purée in small portions.
Storing the attachments
Keep the motor unit, blending stick, whisk, chopper and cup together in one drawer or a box, so nothing goes missing and the set is ready when you need it. Wrap the cable loosely rather than tightly around the motor unit.
Store the blending stick blade-down in the cup or in a drawer where fingers will not touch the blade when reaching in. Dry every part fully before putting the 4 in 1 hand blender set away, especially the chopper lid and bowl, so no moisture is trapped inside.
Safety tips
Keep fingers and utensils away from the blades while the motor unit is plugged in, and switch off before lifting the blender out of a mixture. Do not run the motor for long periods without a rest; short bursts are better for both the motor and the texture of the food.
Keep the appliance away from the edge of the worktop and out of reach of children, and never use it with a damaged cable. Used with these simple habits, the 4 in 1 hand blender set gives years of easy everyday use, from morning smoothies to whipped cream for dessert.
