You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you expect a stick
blender to be a food processor. They are quite different. The stick
blender is great for a number of things, especially if it has a couple
different "tools;" e.g., a whip and a chopper bowl for chopping small
quantities of things -- maybe a batch of salsa.
