Braun MQ 5045 WH Aperitive

Advantages: Durable with proper and careful care,
Speeds up the cooking process at times,
Stylish,
Light.

Disadvantages: The whisk in this model is less than it was in previous models. When, for example, beating eggs in a special flask-glass, it is necessary to use both hands in the preparation, because the flask is very light and during the rotation of the rim also turns, it will not stand on the table.
Very sharp knives when washing will be careful !!!

Comment: This is my second Braun blender, the first one has served for 6 years without complaints until the nozzle on the bowl, to which the motor is attached, has failed. It turns out to wash it in the place of motor attachment is not recommended from experience. In appearance, this part is all plastic and why not wash it after use. But, it has micro slots, where the water flows when washing and there all the dirt lingers on the plastic chests, after 6 years this nozzle has failed in this place. This mechanism is sealed tightly in plastic and it is impossible to clean it, my husband had only to pick out its top lid sealed to the glue to get to the bottom of the truth, why it broke and the motor does not twist it.
A few weeks after the breakdown of this part, a small part on the motor broke off, which erects the rotation of the nozzles (I do not know what it is called).

In general, I am very pleased with the blender, as I bought a new flask from an old blender. Now I have 3 flasks of different sizes for all cases)))))

Advantages: I like everything.

Disadvantages: The bottom nozzle of the blender is plastic.

Comment: My blender is about 10 years old. Works without complaints. We use it very often. And the whisk, and chopper. We practically do not use the ice pick. We have an unnecessary device. Especially recently acquired stationary blender.
Now I want to buy the MQ70 attachment to it.

Advantages: beautiful, comfortable, smart, easy to clean, copes with responsibilities

Disadvantages: not

Comment: The second time I’m already buying Braun, because I’m from Braun’s parents, and that year has been pleasing them with its stability. He does his work and does it well. We began to make smoothies with our beloved, and this model can prick ice (there is a special knife in a large bowl), so that the frozen berries are not even defrosted. :)
And in a small bowl it is very convenient to chop up the Parmesan, now even the grater is not available. 10 seconds, and the Parmesan is all crumbly, and it's probably even more convenient to wash it than a grater :))

Advantages: Functionality

Disadvantages: Price, speed switch.

Comment: I really liked this model with its set: there is a mill, and a large form. To be honest, I only use the mill, a large form and a whisk. This is quite enough, it is convenient to make batter for pancakes, waffles and cookies. Also, I start making thick dough there - so that the ingredients are better mixed! In the grinder, the cheese, onion, garlic, and lasagne meat are perfectly crushed. In general, I'm all pretty. The only thing is that the speed switch in them is not very new (my mother has the same pale but old pattern — it is more convenient there). Although my husband likes it, but I feel uncomfortable with one hand — and it’s not always convenient for both in the cooking process.
