Cheap and even medium priced ones just don’t last very long. Bamix is the stick blender you will buy once. They still make spares for older models, I was in a cookery shop in Amsterdam and they were boasting how customers of theirs still have ancient 1980s bamix blenders where all that has been done to them is a replacement power cord.

Have worked in professional kitchens quite a bit and the good ones tend to use robot coupe. Looks like a basic one is £250 so unless you're happy to spend that money I'd probably follow the Bamix recommendations below if I were you.
On the other end of the scale I have in my home kitchen one I bought from Tesco for a fiver 10 years ago. Own brand and obviously way less good than a professional model, but it has never broken in that time.
Any recommendations on a stick blender that’s good but not enormous money?
