Breville Wizz Stainless Plus BSB500

Wnderful aid in the kitchen - perfect for any chopping, whizzing or whipping job!! Love it!! – I use this almost every day (and sometimes many times a day!) for blending, chopping, whipping - pretty much everything! When my baby started solids it was almost in constant use blending veggies, chopping meat etc - it was an invaluable time saver! Now I like to use it to chop herbs and onions - so quick and easy. I also make breadcrumbs, chop nuts, whip egg whites... pretty much everything! I also have a big food processor but prefer to use this for small jobs as it is easier to clean.

This was a gift from my mother-in-law when we had our baby and I couldn't live without it.

Saves much needed time in the kitchen! Reliable, strong cutting blade, versatile. Great value for money. Small and easy to store. Easy to clean.

Excellent – This is a very easy to use, versatile kitchen helper. Great for all sorts of blending, mixing and cutting tasks. Comfortable grip, easy to use and clean. Compact storage. Great value. The Breville Wizz Stainless Plus stick mixer has a powerful 600 watt smooth operating motor driving a multi cutter blade. The entire unit is of hygeinic construction with easy to clean components. It is ergonomically comfortable and easy to use. I have owned one now for 6 months and absolutely nothing has gone wrong (like several other well-known brands previously used). The smooth contour design and brushed stainless steel finish are quite stylish and storage is simple.

OK – When this unit works, it's terrific. It's fast powerful machine of its type. We have had problems with reliability though. In our first unit the motor failed and was replaced under warranty. In our second unit, the bearing in blade attachment has seized due to water ingress. The original warranty had run out, and the extended warranty people class the blade part as an 'attachment' not covered under warranty!

The water ingress issue is possibly due to a poor design that allows water down the top of the shaft into a steel bearing (Which is easy to do when you are cleaning the blade portion. Powerful, easy to clean, looks good. Unreliable

Excellent – It is a small stylish little appliance that makes many cooks job alot easier. It is great for making soup as you can just blend it in the pot. I love how convienient it is and it is very easy to convert it into a chopper that comes with it's own container or a mixer for making cakes. It is versatile and really does any job required. I would recommend this to be in everyones kitchen. It is a little miracle. Stainless steel shaft, strong blades, multiple uses including chopper, blender and mixer in one unit. Really affordable, small and easy to store.
