We received a Kitchen Aid Immersion Blender for our wedding five years ago.  We (mostly Jami, my wife) used it regularly, and it made us great soups and smoothies for years.  About a year or two ago the coupling got all ground up melted.  We were disappointed, but it is a plastic part so what can you expect.  So Jami wants one of those fancy Vitamix or Blendtec blenders for Christmas, but it is just a LITTLE out of my price range (sorry Honey).  So I was thinking I would get her another hand immersion blender.  A little research online showed that for about $50 one can buy a nice Cuisinart Smart Stick CSB-77 and it had like 4.5/5 stars on Amazon with about 400 reviews.  Great gift, and in the budget.  I was about to go to ye old Target this very night, but I decided to look a little deeper in the Amazon reviews.  I'll copy and paste it since it's small.

I have had my Smart Stick for few weeks and am loving it! use, clean, and store. I am enjoying many more healthy smoothies in the morning, along with delicious soups for lunch. I learned NOT to lift it up too high when blending. and cut apples, simmered them down, added some cinnamon, and nutmeg.....and gave them a whirl. Also made a sweet potato and carrot mix, simmered, drained, added some ginger, and easily whipped it into a side dish my grandchildren loved! So far...so very good!! Glad I bought it. Arrived promptly and no problems. 4/23/13: Ignore the words above!!! After maybe 10 uses, none of them on challenging mixes, my Smart Stick has broken.The plastic gear inside looks rough and ragged. The blade barely turns. It happened as I attempted to blend cooked carrots into a soup. I never used it on anything that seemed too solid, so I am very disappointed as I reallySome of the other reviewers mentioned the plastic gear as a

weak spot and they were right. Why doesn't Cuisinart make that gear metal rather than plastic??? Other reviews said the same thing.  So I'm not going to spend $50 on something that works great just long enough to blend 10 smoothies so it looks good in a consumer report, and then breaks.  Thank goodness for Amazon reviews.  They have saved me multiple times.  So I was looking to see if I could buy an immersion blender with a metal coupling, or gear if you prefer.  Some person on another site said, "Coupling design matters more than material. If you make your coupling short and thin, concentrating all the force in a small area, it will strip even [if] it's metal. Conversely, a well-designed coupling is longer, so the strain is spread over a large area."  I don't care what they say, I want a metal coupling.  Then I'll know it will last.  But none appear to be available.  Then I read another Amazon review, which I will refer to later, that gave me a great idea.

Anyway, so now how to fix said worthless plastic gears. I don't know why Jami and I kept this piece of our immersion blender lying around for 1 or 2 years, but now I'm glad we did. Take a flat head screwdriver and dig molten plastic out.  Mine just popped out easily. Here are the remnants of what used to be gears.  Should have made them out of metal . . . tsk tsk. Hacksaw the plastic around the metal part off. Now the metal stem is exposed. I tested out this contraption on an almost expired banana and some rock hard frozen strawberries. I like milk in my smoothies, don't you?  So there you go.  I owe this all to another Amazon review on the Breville immersion blender. I'll copy and paste what my fellow Arizonan dbphoenix wrote: "How stupid do they think we are? And I don't mean just Breville, but KitchenAid, Cuisinart, Hamilton Beach, and all the rest. And if it weren't for Amazon reviews, you'd never know. And for a hundred dollars.

Amazon reviews have become the Consumer Reports of the new millennium. No wonder they're soAnd manufacturers would be wise to pay attention. those who are tired of being taken advantage of by companies that have zero respect for their customers, consider what I do. Buy a paint mixing attachment for your electric drill. You can get a good metal one forAttach it and go to town. Metal gears, tons of power, near-infinite speeds, and it will never bog down or break. sounds a little Tool Time, but it works (where do you suppose they got the idea for immersion blenders in the first place), and if you have a drill that's battery-operated, you don't have to futz around with a "With all this Chinese out-sourcing, companies have become incredibly lazy and profit-greedy. When will they go back to making quality products like they did fifty years ago (a KitchenAid mixer I bought in 1970 broke down just last year; a Sunbeam mixer that belonged
