to be making all your great soup ideas. And eating that way this year.

I know my way around a kitchen. That's why my wife keeps telling me to get out of there.

(999 posts)At least 10 years old. Most inexpensive one available at the time of purchase. Still works perfectly.

(5,580 posts)Smoked two other brands in a few months but this one has lasted close to two years. Used on soups lumpy gravy lots of thick batter quick breads. Business end all stainless steel still looks good.

(1,231 posts)Had my original for a number of years. It did burn out. New one has adjustable speed which is a great feature. Also comes with a few attachments as did original. Wouldnt be without it for my soup making. Best appliance I own besides my crockpot in terms of regular use. Got mine at Costco for around $29 I think. Pretty reasonable for something I use a lot.

(15,813 posts)Viking immersion blender. That thing lasted ten years. It was also really expensive, and I eventually burned out its really expensive powerful motor.
A cuisinart will run you under $30ish and will blend soup just fine.
