Mueller Ultra-Stick vs Hamilton Beach 59765 Immersion

Overall Verdict

So far, we haven't gathered enough evidence to conclude if the Mueller Ultra-Stick is more reliable or durable than the Hamilton Beach 59765, but if we had to choose between these models, we’re inclined to recommend the Mueller Ultra-Stick.

Although this blender is loud, flimsy, and inconsistent, it still performed better than the Hamilton Beach 59765. Its included whisk attachment was also more efficient in beating egg white and emulsifying mayonnaise. However, we did find that while the Mueller Ultra-Stick is finer for basic tasks, it will overheat the same as the Hamilton Beach 59765 if operated continuously for longer than 90 seconds.
