KitchenAid KHBBV53 vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion

Overall Verdict

The KitchenAid KHBBV53 is a top-tier contender in the mid-range class. And as with any battery-powered machine, it offers greater convenience than its corded counterparts. 

Besides delivering greater mobility, this cordless blender also blends more evenly than the UTALENT 5-in-1. It can churn through solid ingredients, like frozen fruit, without too much trouble.

However, despite being less efficient than the KitchenAid, the UTALENT 5-in-1 being corded does eliminate the risk of losing power during blending.
