About this product
The Cuisinart SmartStick CSB-179 is a 5-speed electric immersion handheld blender with a 3-quart capacity. It includes a blending stick, whisk, chopper, and cup. Made with stainless steel and a soft-touch handle, it features detachable, dishwasher-safe parts. The 300-watt motor and variable speed control offer versatility for beating, blending, and chopping. It comes with a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
Our take
The Cuisinart SmartStick CSB-179 is a versatile immersion blender that handles a variety of tasks. The 5 speeds and variable control give good precision, and the stainless steel shaft is sturdy. The included whisk and chopper are nice additions, expanding its functionality. The 300-watt motor is adequate for soups and smoothies, but it can struggle with thick mixtures. The soft-touch handle is comfortable, and parts are dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup. At $92.95, it's a solid mid-range choice, though the 3-quart capacity claim seems optimistic – it works best with smaller batches.
