Robot Coupe MMP190VV Mini 8" Variable Speed Immersion Blender - 2/5 HP

While the ergonomic design and performance of this immersion blender is nice, the quality just isn't there. It's designated "light duty" and it is... Pretty much a home use machine. The gear sets (and there are more than there should be) are all plastic and won't last in even moderate use. Then when you go to buy any replacement parts, you're in for sticker shock! I bought one unit, the motor failed under warranty but I didn't want to spend all the time waiting to RMA and such so I just ordered another one. By the time I got around to it the warranty period was expired on the first one. Well the gears all chewed up on the second one a little after a year. But the "blending arm" or any of it's associated parts Read More

Perhaps this product was good in 2016 when the last review was written, but what I got was basically a piece of junk. It burned up after less than 5 minutes of use mixing eggs. Customer service from factory was abysmal. They were completely inflexible in getting me a more powerful unit and paying the difference. I bought this unit to replace a different branded stick mixer which I paid less than $100 for . It never had problems mixing anything. I wanted the capability of making larger batches of product. We ended up purchasing a Waring 1hp mixer which cost less than this unit and works wonderfully. I would stay away from anything Robot Coupe makes unless you are willing to lose a bunch of money having to replace it before its time.

Really happy with this purchase, we have bought multiple cheaper blenders and they all go out in about a year. This is a very powerful and well built machine and I can tell we will get many years of work from it.

We bought this Robot coupe MMP240VV 9 1/2 mini blender for making salad dressing a while ago. It didn't work and the dressing separated a few minutes later. We had to deal with the manufacturer for the problem. It was a nightmare.

This is our Chef's new favorite item in his kitchen! This is super high powered, but it can be gentle also. It is easy to use and easy to clean.

This blender is everything it's advertised to be. I'm a home user that's very careful about investing in products that I plan to keep for a long time. I did a lot of research and narrowed my decision down to this and another immersion blender. In the end I went with the Robot Coupe MMP 240 VV 12 Mini Variable Speed Immersion Blender and have no regrets. It's a serious machine and not one of those little home smoothie blenders that will burn out quickly. So far I've used it for soups, like thick butternut squash soup and it makes a beautiful creamy blend without overtaxing the motor. Ordering/delivery was exactly as promised by The WEBstaurant Store!

robot coupe comes out with another great product. these smaller version stick blenders are great for smaller batches of soups and sauces. its great for emulsifying large batches of salad dressings.
