Cuisinart CSB-175 vs UTALENT 5-In-1 Immersion Side-by-Side Comparison
Our comparison between the UTALENT 5-in-1 and the Cuisinart CSB-175 reveals what the pros and cons of each one are.
UTALENT 5-In-1
Tested Using Methodology v1.0Cuisinart Smart Stick
Tested Using Methodology v1.0Overall Verdict
The Cuisinart CSB-175 offers better value than some of its rivals in the same price range and its affordability makes it a good starting point if you’re new to the blending world.
Compared with the UTALENT, it has fewer speed options, but this doesn’t influence its overall efficiency.
Of all its tests, it was only challenged by the beaten egg whites recipe due to the lack of a whisk attachment. The other remaining tests, including soup-making, smoothie-blending, nut-grinding, and mayonnaise-emulsifying, were finished pretty impressively.
The UTALENT, on the other hand, churned out less efficient results, and we also found it quite uncomfortable to use. The only advantage of this blender over the Cuisinart is its accessory package.
