Bella 10-Speed vs. All-Clad Corded: Comparison by Hands-on Tests

Overall Verdict

The Bella 10-speed provides more efficiency at a considerably lower price than the All-Clad. It beat the All-Clad in nearly all of our tests despite sporting a lower-powered motor. Thanks to the extra whisk attachment, it is also more versatile than the competition. With only a blending wand, the All-Clad wasn’t up to all of our tasks. In particular, it was unable to create mayonnaise or whip eggs.

When it comes to build quality, however, the All-Clad has the advantage. It is noticeably more refined on both the inside and outside. It also offers a couple of more user-friendly features, such as the rubber layer coating around the handle for more comfortable grips.
