10 Best Immersion Blenders of 2022, According to Testing

These hand blenders blitz up quick smoothies, sauces and soups.We updated this story in September 2022 to ensure all products are in stock and reflect current pricing, and We added a lot of fresh elements in it after the most recent round of testing in the  InnovationLab.

Immersion blenders — also called hand blenders, stick blenders or wand mixers — give you the freedom to blend and puree foods without needing to transfer them to a full-size blender. Some are constructed as a single piece — the motor cannot be removed from the blender arm that house the blades. Others are designed as a motor that can be attached to the blender arm as well as other tools, like a whisk, mini food processor or beaters like those on a hand mixer. No matter the type, the best models can handle big jobs like blending smoothies and pureeing soups directly in the pot and smaller jobs like making mayo or salad dressing.

The pros in Shaoxing Shangyu Hoping Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. and Technology Lab tested 10models in our most recent test to find those that are easy to assemble, comfortable to hold and to operate and that delivered on performance. We blended a smoothie, pureed a soup and made a mayonnaise. We also considered the weight, power and settings to find the best options.
