Can one hand blender really replace your everyday kitchen gadgets? We put ProCook to the test

When we're talking about hand blenders, there's one question that always comes up: is an all-in-one system really as good as the separate appliances that do their own jobs?

ProCook's Hand Blender with Accessories Pack sets out to answer that question directly. It bundles a hand blender, chopper, whisk and jug under a single 1000W motor, promising to replace three appliances with one.

On paper, it's an appealing pitch: less clutter, less spending, one charger, one set of instructions. It also sits at a competitive price point, especially with ProCook's current offer, which puts it firmly in the conversation when you're weighing up the best hand blenders on the market right now.

But specs and marketing copy only tell you so much. To find out whether this system earns its place in a real kitchen, I sent it to one of our trusted testers, Emily, who put it through several days of proper, hands-on cooking.

How we tested the Procook Hand Blender

I tested the ProCook hand blender and accessories pack, which is designed to run three attachments from a single motor: a hand blender, a chopper, and a whisk, plus a smoothie tumbler. The idea is to replace separate kitchen appliances with one system, which immediately appealed to me because I already own and regularly use a hand blender, an electronic whisk and a separate chopper.

I used it at home over a few days, working through a mix of recipes to properly test each function in real conditions.

Unboxing the Procook Hand Blender

First impressions count and they also tell you a lot about a brand. If they put thought into the box, it's more likely that they'll have put effort into little touches and tweaks that make a difference. This is something that ProCook clearly knows, because the set arrived in a sturdy box, and Emily's initial reaction was telling. She said it "feels expensive and like a good quality product" straight out of the packaging, noting a reassuring weight to the motor and handle that suggested this wasn't going to feel like a budget buy.

Getting started was simple, too. The attachments "click in and out fluidly," which meant no fiddling before the first test. It louds logical, but there are a lot of hand blenders that need specific twists, movements, and angles to get the attachments in place, so this was a great start.

Thinking ahead to storage, Emily noted a word of warning as "the chopper is quite big and not slimline so takes more space to store." She also noted that the instructions offered little help in working out how to keep everything organised.

Who would the ProCook hand blender suit?

• Someone upgrading from a basic single-speed hand blender who wants more power and speed
• Someone with generous kitchen storage who's happy to house multiple attachments

This system rewards a particular kind of cook. If you're coming from an entry-level hand blender and mainly want faster, smoother results without worrying too much about nuance, the power on offer here will feel like a genuine upgrade. But it asks something in return: storage space, and a willingness to hold the motor throughout each task rather than walking away mid-job. If precision matters to you more than raw power, or your cupboards are already full, this isn't the natural fit.

What is the Procook Hand Blender like to use?

On blending, this system doesn't hold back. Emily found the motor consistent and powerful, and reported that it "consistently pulverised fruit," delivering smooth results with no lumps whatsoever. For soups, sauces and smoothies, that's exactly the kind of performance you want from a 1000W motor.

The chopper needed a slightly different technique to get right. Emily learned to use "short, sharp blasts rather than keep it going," because sustained blasts pushed ingredients past chopped and into puréed territory almost instantly. Once she adjusted her approach, she found it easier to manage, but it's a learning curve worth knowing about before you start.

The whisk attachment was the weak point. Whipping cream in a larger bowl, even on the lowest setting, led to what Emily described as it having "decorated my kitchen" — not the outcome you want when you're trying to get ahead on a dessert. It was enough to send her back to her existing electric whisk, which didn't cause the same issue.

Convenience was another sticking point. Unlike her standalone chopper, which she can start with a single press and step away from, this system required her to attach and hold the motor throughout, meaning she couldn't multitask or leave it running while she got on with something else — a real consideration if you're cooking around a busy household.

Should you buy the ProCook Hand Blender?

As a piece of engineering, this system does exactly what it claims: the 1000W motor is powerful, the blending results are excellent, and the build quality feels a cut above what you'd expect at this price. Emily herself admitted she was "excited about the upgrade as it looks and feels better and improved on all other hand blenders I've had before" when she first opened it.

however, performance alone doesn't make a product right for every kitchen. Emily's day-to-day experience was that the system was "too bulky to store" and, for her chopping needs specifically, "too powerful to be useful," ultimately deciding she was "happy with my cheaper separate alternatives." She wasn't unimpressed by what it could do, but she found it didn't slot into her actual routine.

If you have the storage space and you value raw power over nuance, particularly for chopping, this is a genuinely strong, well-priced system, and at £49.99 it undercuts a lot of the competition. But if your kitchen storage is tight, if you like being able to walk away from an appliance mid-task, or if delicate whisking is a regular part of your cooking, you may well end up, like Emily, reaching for your existing tools instead.
