DESC: Reach for this versatile tool when a stand blender or food processor is too big or inconvenient for the task at hand. And when you do, you wont drag a power cord along, because this powerful, 16-1/2-inch hand blender operates on rechargeable batteries. Fully charged, it runs for about 15 minutes before needing recharging. Then just detach the charger handle and plug it directly into a wall socket.
