Braun, absolutely. I was lucky enough to get mine on a special at Sam's
Club a couple of years ago, for $14 with attachments. The little food
chopper/processor attachment is worth its weight in gold for smaller jobs,
while my Cuisinart remains unused for small quantities. I haven't tried the
whisk, but I'm sure it's A-OK.
