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.

I love this kind of product and I hate the fact I've had x number of dead cheapo stick blenders in my life. If I wasn't brought up such a tightarse I'd have bought one years ago.

I'll keep an eye on them, and try and pick one up when there is a decent deal on maybe.
The bamix seems to have lower wattage than some other premium competitors, say 200/250w vs a Braun multiquick at 1000/1200w.
I expect at least some of it is for the sake of impressive high numbers, as 1200w in a stick blender sounds excessive.e.g. this Braun multiquick 7

Any recommendations on a stick blender that’s good but not enormous money?
