If you live alone, may I suggest a $40 or less stick/wand blender. Easy
to use and to clean...more uses than either a blender or Food
Processor. If you get the one that has the chopping, dicing
attachments. Easy to make Mayo, purree soups, remove lumps from
gravy...grind, chop and dice small amounts of whatever etc...and you
usually need to just rinse it clean and put it in the cupboard or
drawer.

Now it won't make bread, coleslaw or whip cream, but it is very handy.
And it takes up very little space
