Product Information

But the Triblade blender goes way beyond blending. Interchangeable attachments mean this appliance is a true multi-tasker. With easy twist fittings, you can seamlessly swap between blending and mashing, whisking and chopping; using just one appliance to create creamy mash, chunky soups, featherlight meringues or delicious dressings. And because the Triblade is all about convenience, when you’re finished creating you can just pop most of the wands and attachments straight in the dishwasher, and spend your time enjoying your meal instead of cleaning up. We blended mayonnaise for three minutes, noted how easy to was to keep holding the blender and how much the handle warmed up. Splash guard Usually sold separately, these fit over a bowl, with a hole for the hand blender to pass through. It helps prevent splashes from going on to your work surface.

With an 800W motor, variable speeds and turbo function, the Triblade System Hand Blender comes with all the available attachments, including: For making soups, you’re unlikely to need as many attachments, but if you’ll be using your blender to prepare lots of vegetables then a chopping tool will be a godsend. Also, is the beaker or bowl included – and how big is it? If it doesn’t fit your size requirements then you may need to look elsewhere. How much power do I need? Not everyone is on the hunt for a hand blender with lots of bells and whistles, but we still tested every attachment they came with, so we can tell you which ones are the best. Those with difficult-to-reach crevasses or blender heads that couldn't be removed were the worst products we tried. The best hand blenders were easy to rinse out and clean by hand. Build quality

Although you can buy the Triblade blender wand on its own, the rest of the models in the Triblade range come with an array of different attachments to help you get creative in the kitchen, most of which are dishwasher safe.

The best are comfortable to hold, even with reduced hand strength, the worst vibrated a lot and were uncomfortable to keep hold of after a minute or so. Washability Our testers assessed each hand blender's build quality. The best had casing that didn't flex when pressed, premium materials such as rubberised grips and attachments that felt secure and solid when attached to the main handle. Whisk An attachment to incorporate air into a mixture. Good for whipping up egg whites, cream cake mixes and batters. For those with additional extras, we test the ability to knead dough, julienne vegetables and chop and dice. Simply choose one of its eight speeds, squeeze the control button and let the blades – which stay sharp for 12 times longer than standard blades, apparently – do their work. They slow down steadily once you release it.

We also tried each hand blender with Cambridge simulation gloves , which simulates reduced hand mobility, to see which ones are more comfortable to use for people with limited dexterity or strength.

We also test each model for ease of cleaning, noting which models are easy to clean up and have dishwasher-safe parts and those that don’t.The Tefal Infiny Force is a hand blender with larger ambitions. It comes with three handy attachments to make it a foodie’s friend in the kitchen, including a sauce foot for making your own mayonnaise, if you’ve ever fancied it. The Dualit DHB2 Hand Blender is an excellent choice for any discerning chef. Its 700W motor, upgraded from 500W of its predecessor, means it handles foods better and it comes with all the necessary accessories. There’s also a turbo mode for dealing with super-tough blends.
