In a small kitchen where storage is at a premium, I figured a portable blender would serve me fine. I quickly realised how limiting it was for my needs — as a home cook, I needed more than just smoothies for my breakfast.
After looking at several options, I got the Braun Multiquick 5 and haven’t regretted that purchase once. It might come with a few different attachments, but it’s still compact and powers well above its size would indicate.
I can still make smoothies, but now I also make soups, sauces and other dishes that I’ve been meaning to try now I have a hand blender.
Actually, hold on, there is one small regret that I do have: I paid full price for it and regret not waiting for the massive 57% discount available right now. If, like me, you’re looking to up your kitchen antics with something small and affordable, grab this EOFY deal on the Braun Multiquick 5 for the bargain price of AU$79 at The Good Guys.
With smoothies, the Multiquick 5’s motor can easily crush and blend frozen fruit and fibrous greens like kale.
Its heat-resistant immersion blender shaft attachment allows me to just stick (pardon the pun) the blender directly into a hot stock pot to blend or puree ingredients to make soup or sauce, saving me cooking time.
Even though the attachments can’t be stacked and need to be stored separately, the full package still earns its spot in my kitchen in spades as the blender shaft, whisk, masher and vegetable chopper don’t take much room.
Granted, the Multiquick 5 would be too small for some households, but it’s serving me very well and, honestly, given how versatile it is, it’s excellent value at this price.
