Our verdict

A retro styled stick blender with a variable dial, turbo button and detachable stainless shaft for soups, sauces and shakes. The box holds only the blender and a manual, so beakers or whisks must come from elsewhere.

Overview

Smeg pairs its retro styling with a working stick blender here: a variable speed dial, a turbo boost button and stainless steel blades on a detachable shaft. The shaft twists and locks onto the handle and comes off for cleaning and storage.

Speed control is the strong point, with a dial for gradual steps and turbo for a burst of power at the end of a blend. The kit is bare, with no beaker, whisk or chopper listed, and the listed weight differs between the specs and the description.

Who it's for

Kitchens with matching Smeg appliances or a pastel color scheme get a blender that looks the part and still handles soups, sauces and shakes. Cooks who want a full attachment set should look at kits that include them.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Variable dial plus turbo boost
  • Detachable shaft for easy cleaning
  • Nonslip ergonomic handle
  • BPA free materials
Cons
  • Only blender and manual included
  • Dishwasher safety of the shaft not listed
  • Weight differs between specs and description

Performance notes

Texture is set by the dial: lower steps mix and emulsify, while higher steps and turbo puree chunky ingredients. The twist and lock joint holds the shaft rigid while it runs, and motor power at the top of the dial governs how fast thick shakes and guacamole come together. A nonslip grip matters most in long blends when hands get wet.

Frequently asked questions

What can the Smeg immersion blender make?

Smeg lists blending, creams, emulsifying and mixing, and the description names milkshakes, mayonnaise, chunky guacamole and smooth soups.

How much does the Smeg HBF11PBUS weigh?

The spec sheet lists 3 pounds, while the description says 4 lb. Expect a handheld weight in that range.

Is the Smeg HBF11PBUS cordless?

No. It is an electric corded blender that plugs into a standard outlet, so plan to work within reach of one.
