Offering both power and versatility, the NUTRIBULLET Immersion Blender is a top seller at The Good Guys. And no wonder, given it comes with three extremely useful accessories. The 900ml cup and lid, clip-in whisk and 600ml chopping bowl and lid transform this stick blender into a customisable kitchen essential.

“I tested the Nutribullet Immersion Blender and it works like my big blender but without the big clean up. I use the chopping bowl for the ice & fruit then put it in the tall cup, change over attachments and blend with the stick attachment. The smoothie desserts are perfect every time,” says customer Jodi, in her five-star product review.

Plus, variable speeds offer the ultimate control, so you’ll get the blend consistency right every time – perfect for pureeing veggies for baby food. And, when the job is done, dishwasher safe parts make clean-up super easy.

What Is A Stick Mixer Used For?

From chopping nuts and blending ingredients for the ultimate party dips to making milkshakes, a stick mixer makes light work of so many culinary tasks.

“Stick mixers are excellent for smaller or more specific tasks like whizzing up a quick salad dressing or pureeing soups,” says Tracey Ellis, The Good Guys Buyer – Portable Appliances.

With a slim, single shaft for easy handheld operation, they’re a no-brainer for blitzing guacamole or quick-mixing banana, milk, yoghurt and peanut butter in the smoothie cup (did someone say no-mess morning smoothie?). And many come with accessories that let you do more – think whisk attachments for perfect meringues, and chopping bowls to prep the dates and nuts for your homemade protein balls.

What Are The Best Stick Mixer Brands?

Sunbeam, Braun and Kambrook are all known for their masterful stick mixers.

Whether you’re after a do-it-all stick mixer set or standalone stick blender, Sunbeam has the perfect model to join your small kitchen appliance alliance. Chopping and whisk attachments are great for the family kitchen or in the hands of a creative home chef, while a high-powered stick mixer will whiz through weeknight soups.

Choose a Braun stick mixer for specialist tech that delivers a smooth mix every time. With ActiveBlade technology, the blades of a Braun stick mixer move up and down as they spin, to thoroughly blend tough ingredients like nuts in your homemade pesto, or baked apples for applesauce.

For the busy home cook, a Kambrook stick mixer’s quiet motor won’t wake the kids during late-night meal prep. Plus, attachments include a practical non-slip base chopping bowl and anti-splash guard.

How Do I Choose A Stick Mixer?

Consider your mixing needs before choosing a stick mixer.

“If your family kitchen has a resident stand mixer for big mixing jobs, look for a stick blender with versatile attachments to handle the smaller, everyday tasks,” says Tracey Ellis.

“If it’s to be the standalone mixer in your cosy kitchen or share house, opt for a high-wattage model that’ll take care of occasional heavy mixing too.”
