BELLA 10-Speed vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion Side-by-Side Comparison

By , , , and ·Updated
BELLA 10-Speed vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion

Overall Verdict

In many ways, these two hand blenders are alike, including their average performance in making smoothies or pureeing hot soups. Indeed, our testing procedures exposed a couple of issues with both of them. These included a violent shaking motor that caused hand fatigue and poor head-suction performance that made it challenging for us to move the blending wand around for an even blend.

However, if you have to choose between these two blenders, we recommend going with the  BELLA 10-speed, given its slightly better cleanability and blended results.
