Multi-tasking stick blender with bowl attachment?

My Bosch MultiTalent 3 has given up the ghost after 4.5yrs, much to my annoyance.

I'm wondering whether I can replace it with a good stick/immersion blender with a bowl attachement, instead of a countertop processor, as space is very much at a premium in our kitchen. Realistically, I mainly use it for making breadcrumbs and chopping veg for mirepoix (can do in my small manual processor), and making pesto, hummus/other dips, and smoothies. I'm thinking I could do the pesto and hummus etc with a stick blender with a bowl attachment (or just in a jug), but would I be screwed on smoothies?!

I also need a new electric whisk for whipping cream, egg whites for tiramisu etc, as well as for occasionally creaming cakes. I've seen stick blenders with a whisk attachment - are these sturdy enough for that kind of thing? Am I asking too much of one device?!

If anyone has a specific model that does all the above, please shout 😃

I have a Breville which isn't made anymore (and I'll be very upset when it dies)! Bought DD a Bosch ErgoMixx because it has the same accessories. I use the chopper for chopping (lol but it also makes good pastes and salsas) and the blender with the jug for milkshakes (made with ice cream not just milk) plus the blender for soups etc. DD really likes the Bosch and uses it more than her food processor.

Thank you @SleepingisanArt - I've looked at the Ergomixx before, do you know which one it is please? There's a few models and I don't know if it's worth paying more for the fancier ones. The basic one is currently on offer for £30.
