Third-party reviews

What customers like about Waring Big Stik WSB60

  • High-power 1 HP (750W) motor that easily drives through thick ingredients
  • Excellent durability and reliability, with many users reporting over a decade of commercial use
  • Large batch capacity capable of mixing up to 25 gallons (100 quarts)
  • Removable, completely sealed 16-inch stainless steel shaft that is dishwasher-safe
  • Variable speed control ranging from 5,000 to 18,000 RPM for precise texture management
  • Continuous 'ON' feature for comfortable, hands-free operation when used with a bowl clamp
  • Ergonomic rubberized grip with a second handle providing stable, dual-hand control

What customers don't like about Waring Big Stik WSB60

  • Very heavy unit, weighing around 12 pounds, which can cause user fatigue during extended use
  • High price point, making it an expensive investment primarily suited for commercial budgets
  • Oversized for smaller residential tasks and incompatible with narrow containers like mason jars
  • Does not include a whisk attachment out of the box; it must be purchased separately
  • Occasional customer complaints regarding waterproofing and sealing longevity on the drive shaft

Verdict

The Waring Big Stik WSB60 is a heavy-duty commercial immersion blender powered by a high-efficiency 1 HP, 750-watt motor that operates on 120V with a NEMA 5-15P plug. It features a variable speed control ranging from 5,000 to 18,000 RPM, allowing operators to easily mix, puree, and emulsify high-capacity loads up to 25 gallons (100 quarts). Key advantages include a completely sealed, 16-inch removable stainless steel shaft that is dishwasher-safe, an all-purpose stainless steel blade, a continuous-on feature for effortless long-term processing, and user-replaceable couplings on the power pack and shaft. It also boasts an ergonomic design with a rubberized comfort grip and a second handle for maximum physical control. However, its substantial 11.8-pound weight and total 31-inch height make it bulky and tiring to handle manually during extended periods, and it is a corded unit that requires an active electrical outlet.
