Lacor 200W BAMIX Electric Blender, Stainless Steel, Silver, Longer Shaft

Had a bamix for years and used it nearly every day, so when it eventually stopped working decided to buy the bamix with a longer shaft. I love it even more than my last bamix, it chops, blends and even mixes cakes so saves me using my mixer. My 5 year old grandchild loves using it too, with supervision of course. Despite it being expensive it is well worth the extra money especially when making soups in my pressure cooker and then blending the soup in the pan with the bamix, having a longer shaft is a bonus.

Equivalent to the Bamix Gastro Pro 200 (20cm shaft). Comes with 3 blades and not the 4 that are announced (the meat shredder is not included).

Gastro 200. La batidora viene con las 4 cuchillas y el soporte de la pared con 2 tacos del 5 y 2 tornillos. El cable es rizado, la medida sin estirar mide 75 cm por lo que no molesta para nada. En un uso prolongado se calienta, pero sin llegar a calentarse como las demás batidoras domésticas. Se nota que es un producto de calidad, además muy fácil de limpiar. Espero que dure muchos años.

The product is of a very good quality and this is already my second one in our professional kitchen. There is a misleading information on the Amazon UK. I was surprised that the machine for the UK market would be different from the rest of EU. It claims to have 2 speeds 12,000 to 18,000 rpm but when the package arrived on the box it said 2 speeds 10,000 to 17,000 rpm as in the EU.

Having an immersion blender that I can use to puree soups and sauces right in the pot I make them in is a must for me. I have a powerful regular blender, but using it means more cleaning up to do. I avoid that whenever possible. But cheap immersion blenders, no matter the supposedly prestigious brand, are not that useful. They just don’t have enough power or sharp enough blades to do the job well. Bamix does. I recently replaced my standard model, which I’ve been using for over 10 years, for this new one. (I’ll be giving the old one to a friend - it still works just fine.) The new one has a little more oomph - 200 watts vs. 150 - but the difference is not very noticeable. The Bamix also works well at whipping cream, making mayo, etc., though I mostly use my for regular blending. This is a procey machine, but I find it worth it. Cheap ones just aren’t.
