Overview

The Braun MultiQuick 5 is a mid-range immersion blender that hit the market back in 2015, offering two dishwasher-safe stainless steel blades for hot and cold meals. This model excels with hot soups, thanks to the immersion design.

Certain variants come with a whisk and heat-proof container to provide all-around meal preparation functions. With a 400-watt motor, this device provides enough power to make smoothies from soft fruit.

It has two speed settings, that give users a measure of control, but there are no preset modes or a digital display. Continue reading our Braun MultiQuick 5 Hand Blender review, and be sure to check out the highest-rated blenders today.

What Is Not on the Box

What the brand doesn’t always tell you…

our Verdict

The Braun MultiQuick 5 is a powerful hand blender with ergonomic and sturdy build quality. It features a soft grip so your hand stays comfortable during use.

With a powerful 400-Watt motor, this appliance easily tackles hot ingredients and fibrous fruits and veggies with minimal splashing. However, it’s nearly impossible to crush ice and frozen chunks of food with the MultiQuick.

The blender also operates very quietly, with an impressive 65 dB of sound during testing. This hand blender includes just two additional attachments: a beaker for smoothies and a whisk.

The attachments are well-built, but with only two, you’re limited to just those functions. The MultiQuick is easy to clean, thanks to dishwasher-safe components, but the grip on the motor portion attracts a lot of dust.

The Braun MultiQuick 7 produces better spreadable butter in less time than the Braun MultiQuick 5 Hand Blender, which takes over 10 minutes to process just 32 ounces of almond nuts. However, the MultiQuick 5 has two speed settings, unlike the MultiQuick 7 that offers no way of controlling the motor speed. See our Braun MultiQuick 7 Hand Blender review for details.
