Countertop Blenders 

These are useful for making smoothies and ice-based drinks such as margaritas and milkshakes . However, they can also be used for blending soups  and for pureeing ingredients for use in other recipes.  These models can usually hold between four and seven cups and run on a power source of 350 Watts and up. Be sure to consider your speeds when shopping; these models typically come in seven to 10 speeds.

Hand Blenders 

Also known as immersion blenders,  these are mainly used for pureeing soups and sauces, although with a handful of attachments they can be used for a wide variety of tasks such as whisking  and emulsifying salad dressings .  Most of these models take up less room and are easier to store as well as dishwasher safe.  Also, many hand blenders are cordless for mobile use and can be recharged in between blendings. If you find that you need a tool that will perform smaller chopping jobs as opposed to large scale liquid drinks, then this model may be for you.
