Is the hand blender very quiet?

Compared to desktop mixers or food processors, hand blenders typically have lower noise levels, but this is also influenced by brand, motor power, and usage environment. The following is a detailed introduction to the noise level of hand blenders:

1. Overall low noise
Relatively quiet: Most hand blenders use low-power motors (200W~600W) with relatively low noise, especially suitable for household environments, without producing strong roars.
Inorganic vibration resonance: Compared with desktop mixers, it does not have a base resonance structure, so it produces less resonance noise.

2. Noise is affected by speed gear
The sound is quieter at low speeds: When using low mixing speeds to process soft ingredients such as fruits and cream, the running sound is softer.
Slight improvement at high speeds: When processing hard ingredients such as nuts and ice cubes at high speeds, the motor load increases and the noise slightly increases, but it is generally not harsh.

3. Noise is affected by ingredients and containers
Container material: Metal containers may amplify sound resonance, while plastic or glass containers are relatively more capable of absorbing vibrations and reducing noise.
Type of ingredients: The sound may be muffled when processing viscous or heavy ingredients; There is a loud impact sound when crushing dry hard objects.

4. Short duration of noise
Short operation time: The handheld blender has a shorter usage time each time (usually completing tasks within a few seconds to tens of seconds), and even if there is noise, it will not interfere for a long time.

5. Some high-end models are quieter
Silent motor design: Some high-end brands (such as Braun, Bamix, KitchenAid) specialize in using silent technology or soundproof enclosures for lower and more stable noise.
Seismic structure: Some models also include seismic and sound-absorbing structures in their design to further reduce noise transmission.

6. Suitable for use in a home environment
Even when using a handheld blender in the morning or evening, it generally does not seriously disturb others, especially suitable for families with elderly people, infants, or those who value a quiet environment.
