The blender comes with a potato masher (extruder) which works quite well. you can have coarse mashed or smooth. There is a mini blender which works fine, but I've already got one. You also get a whisk which works well, if you want to make something like a small amount of whipped cream. At the top of the blender there is a safety switch and variable speed control . It is awkward to start but locks once it begins so it' not so much of a problem. Once it starts you are stuck with the speed it's set at. Of course you can stop and change the speed. I've gone from 200 watts to 600 watts. There is a substantial difference in the speed and quality of the finished product.

WOW. I've never used a plunge blender before, and I did a lot of looking befor I bought 1. The 1st thing I made was mashed potatoes and it has never been so easy. I like the Cuisinart brand and I was not disappointed this thing it great. I'm looking forward to learning to use to make many other things. So, if you are looking to purchase a plunge blender then this is the 1 you want.

It takes 2 hands to start it, leaving my mixing bowl left unaecured. Very thoughtless manufacturing. The whisk is Very Flimsy and doesnt withstand the power of this mixer. It collapsed after my 2nd bath of mixture. Back to the drawing board Cuisinart. It now sits in a cabinet in my garage.

It's all brand new. They certainly refurbished it from the ground up! It works just like it's supposed to. I probably won't use the potato masher attachment since I use a simple, old fashioned hand-held ricer and nothing is easier than that. But the rest of it takes its place among what my husband calls my 'kitchen magician' tools. I would recommend this to anyone who likes to have just the right tool when cooking.

Its clumsy. The safety switch prevents you from using it the way you want. Waste of money. Get a braun. Much better.
