• Mechanical
• Electronic

Blender helps housewives to significantly reduce and facilitate the process of cooking. On sale today is a wide range of this device. But before you buy a blender, advice on choosing useful recommendations and technical characteristics of mechanical and electronic models is still worth exploring.

Differences

All blenders produced today differ from each other in price, functions, appearance and, most importantly, in the type of control. Thus, according to the basic classification, such devices are stationary and manual. And they can be controlled in two ways: electrical and mechanical. At the same time, submersible blenders have only the possibility of mechanical control, while stationary models can have both electronic control and mechanical control.

Mechanical control of the device is the ability to change the speed of work through the use of a rotary mechanism. In addition, he is responsible for turning on and off the device.

Electronic control is more complex, it consists in the presence of several special buttons on the control panel, each of which is responsible for a specific action. For ease of use of electronic blenders, manufacturers often install on them a special display, which reflects the selected functions.

If we talk about what kind of blender to choose - mechanical or electronic, you must first decide what it is planned to use this device.

Selection rules

Earlier, we have already said that all immersion blenders have only mechanical control, while stationary ones can also have electronic ones. Therefore, before you make a purchase, you need to decide on some nuances:

• How often do you plan to use this kitchen unit. If occasionally, then a mechanical blender is also suitable. And for everyday use, moreover, sometimes several times, the electronic model is best suited. The fact is that using a handheld device, you not only have to constantly hold it in your hands, but also keep your finger on the button continuously, otherwise it will not work continuously. But this approach will not only reduce the cooking time, but also lead to fatigue.

• For the preparation of which dishes, and in what amount will be used. If there are no more than two people in your family, then there is no point in acquiring a stationary electronic model. You can grind any products, and even prepare a cocktail (with proper skills) using a hand-operated blender with mechanical control.

• Keep in mind that models with electronic control are much higher, so try to decide right away exactly what amount of money and for what you are ready to pay.

• Do not forget about the presence of the so-called pulsed mode of operation. That he will quickly and thoroughly grind the hardest products. If the presence of such a function is fundamental for you, then it is better to give preference to models with electronic control.

If you have not yet decided which blender you need with electronic or mechanical control, then we recommend that you familiarize yourself with our brief overview of the most high-quality and popular models of both types with their brief characteristics.
