Both of these models are light-duty mid-range blenders, but with a battery-powered motor, the KitchenAid KHBBV53 is considerably less robust than its peer. Be aware that the battery is unable to keep up with excessive use; it can run dry while the blending is still in progress, leaving you with a humble mess to deal with.
Blending with the Braun MultiQuick 5, on the other hand, is a much more pleasant experience. Sporting a 300-watt motor and a few handy blending accessories, it allows you to whip up a variety of whole-food combinations without breaking the bank.
If you do purchase the Braun MultiQuick 5, we are sure you'll love it in almost every aspect.
