It’s a milk frothed…don’t look for greater performanceI make liquid body wash, some of my surfactants come as a solid and I really need to convince them to become a liquid…this little mixer is not the man for the job…stick to frothing milk…

PERFECT!This was bought because I have an old cat with no teeth and she’s pretty picky on what she likes to eat. I now have to blend her food into a liquid and the little blade attachment is PERFECT for this task. I was using an old milk frother with the little spring bottom for this and that left little bits she would not touch after lapping up the liquid. This with the blades leaves no bits. Let’s hope it lasts a long time as well as the little cat.

Probably to early to write a review, but…I just used this little fellow to mix a batch of Vitamin C serum. I wish I’d bought it a long time ago. It helped immensely with combining the C and not having to stir for 15 mins. I mixed it in a small beaker and it was powerful enough to mix all the ingredients…really, I wish I could have slowed it down a bit. Guess I’ll have to get a bigger beaker. Can’t say a thing about longevity. I did notch it down a star as there were no instructions at all how to install the battery. Thank goodness for Amazon’s Q & A.

> DOES THE JOBEVALUATIONDoes the job, but there are virtually no instructions on its use. Most of the complaints about lack of power are probably from folks who installed the batteries wrong.COMPARISONI love my big powerful hand blender

but sometimes, it is just too much, and I don’t want to go to the hassle of cleaning it. For simply mixing a package of powdered chocolate mix into a cup of milk for hot chocolate, etc. the Norpro is perfect, and cleanup is just a few seconds. I use it mostly to make home-made gelatin deserts

. For example grape “Jello” made with real grape juice.INSTALLING BATTERIES> The gray switch “panel” is the door to the battery compartment. With the pointy end to the left, slide the grey panel to the right. Install the first (bottom) battery with the positive end (nipple end) to the right. Install the second (top) battery with the positive end to the left. Slide the panel back in place.> The batteries are hard to install and harder to remove. This can be remedied by applying silicon grease to the contacts
Permatex 22058 Dielectric Tune-up Grease – 3 oz.
. The silicon grease also protects the contacts and improves the electrical connection.***> Alternative, it is easy to make a “battery extractor”: Cut a ca 1/2″ x 4″ strip of paper (or thin ribbon); roll the end around a battery, fold up to make a tab, and glue the tab back on the paper strip or ribbon (in effect make a “doggie collar and leash” for a battery); slip the bottom battery in place, then the top battery, if you have more than 1/2″ left at the top, trim it off. To extract the bottom battery (after extracting the top battery, just pull up on the leash.INTALLING MIXING TOOLSNotice that the lower portion of the stems of the mixing tools is hollow. This hole fits over the solid metal rod in the power unit. You just push the tool in, and when you are done, pull it out. Sometimes the fit is pretty tight, and you have to push hard to install, or pull hard to take the tool out. Be sure to push it ALL THE WAY on, as far as it will go. If the fit is too tight, a little silicon grease (apply with a toothpick) fixes the problem.**USE> Lower the tool into the liquid to be mixed and press the grey lever. Immerse only the lower half of the tool in the solution. Do not immerse as far as the pointy end of the power unit, or you may suck up water (etc) into the motor.> The mixer is one-speed. You can adjust the “violence” of mixing by choosing the tools. Obviously the stick-like tool is the gentlest mixer. The plastic Y is the second gentlest. The wire whisk is the second most intense mixer, and the “frother” is the most intense mixer. Use the frother only in a water glass or other tall, narrow, container.Although the whisk is intense, it also slows to pretty slow if immersed to most of it’s length. I find the plastic Y to be the ideal mixer for mixing gelatin into 3-4 cups of water, without making froth.WASHING UPNEVER submerge the power unit in water—just wipe it off. You may be able to clean the tools adequately by simply operating the mixer in a glass of clean water. If not, then pull off the tool and hand wash.*** Why silicon grease? Vegetable oil may turn gummy after a while, making the situation worse. Petroleum-based oil can attract dust and damage rubber and plastic. Silicon grease does not attract dust, does not damage plastic, is actually good for rubber, and improves and protects electrical connections.

Simple and perfectThe attachments are small but that’s exactly what I wanted, because I use it for my coffee in the morning. It’s super easy to clean! Good buy for the price
Timothy Oswald –
The best for stirring any powder into liquid.I use it to stir my meta musil into any liquid. This item rocks.
Gary Coppa –
Good they work!!!These things are very cheaply made and as a result I wasn’t too upset that when I ordered 3 of them only two were operational. I especially like the fan bladed attachment for stirring my hot coffee or chocolate. I personally do not want my drink to be all frothed up. This little mixer allows me to stir up the drinks without a bunch of foam. Many higher priced stirrers come with only a spring at the bottom which mixes the drinks well but makes them all foamy. I had two more of these mixers for about 5 years before they gave up the ghost.

Works greatJust had to tighten the clamp on the metal frother with a pair off pliers because it keep falling out

Comparing this Norpro mini mixer with the Fit & Fresh mini mixerProtien powders and other such dry nutritional mixes have the best consistency and feel less grainy if you mix them with liquid in your blender. However, if you’re out and about or at work you’re often stuck with a shaker cup to mix with and the results just aren’t the same. I decided to try out these mini-mixers on the recommendation of my friend and they do indeed blend powders and liquids better than the shaker cups do. I bought two, The fit & Fresh
Fit & Fresh Portable Drink Mixer
and the Norpro, as they’re pretty inexpensive and I just couldn’t decide between them.The Fit & Fresh has a little to-go carry case that seemed to make it pretty convenient, plus reviews stating that it seemed more powerful than some of the other little minis. Whereas the Norpro didn’t have a to-go case, but came with extra attachments that made it look better.Having now used them both, I prefer the fit & fresh over the Norpro and here’s why:The Fit & Fresh seems better made. It has an actual slider switch for off and on and the overall quality of the plastic housing seems thicker and better assembled than the Norpro. It comes with two blender sticks (not sure what else to call them) and a little vinyl case. It does seem to have a bit more power than the Norpro and seems to spin faster because of it. It does a better job of mixing my protein powder into milk (I mix pretty thick, with only 1 cup of milk to 1/2 cup of powder, so this is based on my thicker mix).The Norpro seems cheaply made. Rather than an actual on/off button, they put an extra plastic extension on the end of the battery case (where you open to put in the batteries) and when you push it down flat to meet the rest of the plastic housing it turns on the blender. The plastic seems thinner and overall it feels cheaper. It does come with extra attachments,but to be honest, I’m not sure what you’d use them for that the regular, white spreading one couldn’t do the job on. (The white plastic blender sticks spread out when blending to better swirl the mix) It also doesn’t come with an easy, ready made case. So you either have to put it back in the box (what I’ve been doing so far) or stick it in a baggie or something.At the time of my purchase the Fit and Fresh was $2.50 more than the Norpro $6.51. To me, the overall low cost of under $10 makes me inclined to recommend and buy the Fit & Fresh even though it is a bit more. Mainly because it seems to be better made and a bit more powerful (and the handy case adds extra points, too). In the long run, either may be just fine for you as the difference wasn’t dramatic, although I do worry the Norpro will die sooner because of it’s lower manufacture quality.

I bought three of them.I am on a special diet that requires blending of a protein powder into liquid. However, mixing with a spoon just wasn’t cutting it, no matter how long I stirred. Then I remembered owning one of these long ago and how great it worked.I searched high and low for these and was super happy to find them on Amazon. Now I have one at my friends house, one at home and one at work. They are easy to use. It comes with multiple attachments, but the one that is just a stick that splits at the end is the best one for my needs. Only complaint was there was no instructions on how to put the batteries in and it is not easy to get them in and out. Once I figured that out, all three work great and have been working great for a couple of months.If you need to mix powder into your beverage, this little device does the trick nicely!
