- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2016Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseIf you're in the market for a smoothie maker for morning smoothies, consider this as an alternative to other things like the Magic Bullet, or Vitamix. I'm the type of person who just wants the best of the best. I was looking at top of the line Vitamix, Kitchenaid and other full blenders, but eventually settled on this for a few reasons.
Powerful
At 350W this can blend through walnuts, frozen fruit and basically anything I throw at it. The only thing I haven't tried are ice cubes, but I don't doubt that it would be able to handle it.
Easy to clean.
All I do is detach the head and run under the faucet. Maybe use a bit of soap, but it's so much easier than a full blender.
Compact.
This fits in a drawer, and takes up very little space. I can pull it out and use it within 20 seconds.
Affordable.
Compared to other smoothie makers this is at most half the price!
Quieter (much quieter!)
I considered getting an actual blender, but I'm sensitive to noise. This thing is really quiet compared to a full blender or magic bullet.
No mess!
I can't believe how elegantly it blends things without any splatter. It's something you just have to witness to understand. I don't need a lid, or need to be careful to not get smoothie bits everywhere. The blending head is really really well engineered!
Not to say this is an alternative to the more powerful full blenders for everything, but for MOST things, this hand blender will have you covered. Great job, Braun!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI used for many years one of the previous models, now bought this, a bot more heavy but very easy to use as always. Very good quality and sharp blades. Very useful thing. I love it.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2020Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI have experience with a KitchenAide version of a immersion blender very similar to this Braun. So far they are pretty much equal in quality and functionality.
I bought this Braun to make fruit smoothies, and have used it just twice so far.... so small sample size. Early impressions are: the 2-speed motor is plenty strong enough; the device and jar are easy to clean; seems pretty ruggedly built; fits well in my hand during use - the motor buttons are easy to reach and operate; the blender shaft release buttons are easy to reach and manipulate; the cord is an appropriate length for use on a kitchen counter; haven't used the whisk attachment.
The mixing jar included in the set is the weakest element here. The volume scale etched/printed on the side is so feint as to be almost impossible to see it. Nearly invisible! (minus 1 star) I'm considering adding some marks / numbers with a permanent marker for easier reference.
The KitchenAide version I've used has slots in the sides of the cutter-head's bell shaped housing which allow for flow around and through the housing causing a nice whirlpool like action in the liquid etc you are blending; creating a strong top-to-bottom mixing action. This Braun does not have those slots, and it does not seem to produce that top-to-bottom mixing action. But I dunk and lift the blender up down and around while blending anyway. I'm no cook, so I don't know if that sort of mixing action produce by the KA version is important to the outcome or not, or just looks cool. What I can say for certain is that using this Braun the fruit gets totally chopped/liquefied and thoroughly blended and the smoothies so far have been delicious!
I'd buy this again if needed and I recommend enthusiastically. Happy Blending!!

Performs very well.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2024Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI bought this to replace my old counter-top blender. It's very strong and easy to use and purees cooked veggies very well. I'm happy with it!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2023Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI tried to make smoked carrot bisque, like an a hole for a work potluck. Carrots don't smoke well, unless you can find those crazy big ones and then maybe. Also, if you want super smooth soup, buy a chinois, otherwise, be prepared to call the look of your soup,"rustic". Anyway, this thing in the soup pot, churned carrots into nothing in seconds flat. Incredible.
Very comfortable grip, super easy to operate, plenty of power, amazing hand held immersion blender.
So, I xfer the soup to a crock pot and put it on low over night for work the next day.
In the morning I want to try and add more butter and cream cuz why not, so I add it in and put in the blender.
Which catches the crock pot liner, pulls it taught and much like if you put a ball or small child in the middle of a blanket and have adults pull it tight, the soup, like the child or the ball go flying. IN this instance all over me and my kitchen...pretty much Kevin's chili if you watched The Office.
Anyway, my knuckleheadedness aside, great product.
Only negative is it doesn't come with a storage bag, which is kind of a PITA. I had to buy a bag but cmon, how much is a bag vs the added appreciation value? But, ultimately that's a nitpick.

5.0 out of 5 stars Muy buena compra
Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseEs muy buena compra, funciona perfectamente, lo único que no me gustó fue que el recubrimiento de plastico que tiene el cuerpo del motor, en donde se sujeta, tiene una superficie que no es tan agradable al tacto, al final ese detalle no es de mi gusto, pero todo lo demás es bueno, lo volvería a comprar

5.0 out of 5 stars worths buying and good quality
Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI purchased this mixer about ten months ago and first thing that impressed me was the build quality. The Braun MultiQuick 5 feels sturdy and well-crafted, giving me confidence in its durability. The design is sleek and ergonomic, making it comfortable to hold and control, even during extended blending sessions.
One of the standout features of this hand blender is its exceptional power. The 700-watt motor delivers strong and consistent blending performance, effortlessly tackling everything from soft fruits to tough vegetables. I've used it to make silky smooth soups, creamy sauces, and even smoothies, and it performs flawlessly every time.
The variable speed control is another great feature that allows me to adjust the blending speed according to the consistency I desire. Whether I need a quick pulse or a continuous blend, the MultiQuick 5 delivers with precision.
However, since the mixer is pretty loose, I'd rather use a mixer instead. I the whisk part only twice.

5.0 out of 5 stars powerful and easy to use
Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseI got this because i didn't like getting out and cleaning up the mixer and blender for small jobs. So far I've only used it to whip cream but it does a great job. Takes less time than the mixer, doesn't splatter all over and makes a lovely thick cream. Seems sturdy and is easy to snap together, take apart. Could to whip cream for a generous portion for 4 desserts. If I had to make enough for 12 I'd use my mixer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente producto!!
Color: Hummus,Egg Beater,SmoothiesSize: Soup,Baby Food,Mixer,Verified PurchaseMe gusta esta batidora por lo práctica que es para hacer licuados!. Con la licuadora pierdo mucho tiempo en limpiarla y ocupa mucho más espacio, en cambio, con esta batidora manual la limpio en segundos y puedo guardarla en el cajón junto con los cubiertos. Además, es mucho más durable, segura y funcional que otras marcas que conozco a través de amigos y familiares. Maravilloso producto!.
