PHILIPS HL1655/00 Hand Blender | Powerful 250W Motor | with Rust free steel arm | Easy single trigger operation | Specially designed blades | Wall bracket for easy storage, 2year warranty Blue & White

This is genuine product

The blades are very small, much smaller than what I had imagined. There is a blade remover tool. See the attached pic to know how it should be used. If you lose the remover tool, you can use two chopsticks or two twigs to remove the blades. I tried it myself. Chopsticks are working as removal tool. There are 3 blades. One blade is already fixed and I am using that to make butter tea. I don't know the uses of the other two blades. I am using the blender mainly for making butter tea. Before buying this blender, I used to blend hot butter tea a blender jar of mixer grinder, but as the tea is hot, it would splatter from the blender jar and mess up the kitchen. But with this hand blender, I can churn butter tea safely. You can buy a half liter or 1 liter steel mug from local crockery shop and use it as blender jar. I don't like the depressed (sunken) power button. When you use it, keep your palm and the fingers other than index finger (which is on the power button) on the main body to avoid the feel of vibration. There is strong vibration. The user manual says "Do not use the appliance for more than 1 minute continuously." Please read the user manual to prevent accident. Quick milkshake: Mix 1 tablespoon of your favorite jam in a glass of milk and blend it using the blender for instant milkshake.

Good

What I like: The 250W motor works well for everyday blending and the stainless steel arm feels sturdy. The single-trigger operation is simple and convenient to use, especially when preparing soups, shakes or sauces. The blades blend smoothly, and I really like the wall bracket because it makes storage much easier. The blue and white design also looks neat. Things to know: It is better to use the blender in short intervals rather than continuously for a long time. For regular home kitchen use, it is a handy and easy-to-store appliance.

Very good product

I ordered it but it had sharp unpolished edges. The machine itself was very good and ergonomic but the metal parts were a little too unfinshed. Low noise and good size and po w er for use. Great weight distribution too.

So it has been more than a week after purchase I would say this is worth the price... As all products there are cons. Cons: 1) quality of whisker blades not up to mark. The blade is bent due to usage of blade removal tool. It is now slightly at a angle 10°. 2) over heating. Yes the device heats on continuous usage of 5 min(which is when you want to blend something for a longer time to get the texture right 3) cannot attach anything other than what's given with it. 4) lack of additional blade assesories like Ring whisker etc. Pros: 1) easy to use 2) easy to clean

Good product
