    for heavens sake, my second tesco value blender has karked it, exactly the same fault as last time. Im not buying another (and bet we dont have the reciept what with all the decorating & throwing out weve been doing recently!) First one died making hoummous, second making mush0room soup of all things. So a second one into landfill :mad:

    Can anyone recomend me a GOOD one, that will take the pressure of being in my kitchen for more than a week? :rolleyes:

    By the looks of it my stocking is going to be filled with kitchen equipment- which is nice, but i wouldnt mind something thats just a bit frivoulous :rolleyes:

    Im moaning now arnt I? Anyway, your recommendations please/

    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Got a feeling mine is a Braun and it has worked great for a few years now. Although I don't use it as much as you probably do!

    I had a braun stick blender for 17 years before it died and I've recently replaced it with this one...

    It's on offer in argos at the moment reduced from £29.45 to £19.45. I can't recommend it highly enough!

    I'd highly recommend a braun one. I've never had any trouble with mine (touch wood)

    Braun hand blender - £9.99 (save £5 offer)

    for everything else there is a spreadsheet

    I've got a braun as well and it's still going strong after 6 years. It's the type where you can remove the bottom so they messy bit can be dishwashed and you get no water in the electrical bit!
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    lynz, if its faulty Mr T will take it back without a reciept, just tell them you dont want another as they keep going wrong, and just swap it for something else.

    Mines a braun and I am pleased with it. Try a wanted ad on freecycle as they are quite often coming up in my area, people get given them and dont want them etc. Worth a shot!
