Third-party reviews

What customers like about Lacor 61681 700W

  • High performance output thanks to the powerful 700W motor
  • Professional-grade build quality favored by commercial chefs and caterers
  • Highly versatile with four interchangeable stainless steel blades (e.g. for crushing ice, sauces, and beating)
  • Fast processing speeds with high RPM range from 9,000 to 16,000 RPM
  • Sturdy and attractive premium stainless steel housing
  • Practical scope of delivery including a 500ml blending beaker

What customers don't like about Lacor 61681 700W

  • Blade replacement requires using an included specialized tool key
  • Relatively heavy at 1.3 to 1.45 kg compared to lightweight plastic competitors
  • Manufacturer specifies that several parts and components are not dishwasher safe

Verdict

The Lacor 61681 Fast Hand Mixer is a 700-watt immersion blender operating at variable speeds between 9,000 and 16,000 RPM across two settings (slow and turbo). Constructed with a durable 18/10 stainless steel blending arm featuring a 23 cm depth and an auto-shutoff safety mechanism, it is capable of processing, whipping, emulsifying, and even crushing ice. The main advantages include its innovative system of four interchangeable stainless steel blades (with an included changing key) and a compact 500 ml BPA-free mixing beaker. However, notable drawbacks include its lack of full variable speed control—as it is restricted to only two fixed speeds—and the fact that the primary motorized housing body is not dishwasher-safe.
