Bimax stick blender recommendations please

[bacon]

Whether to go for the Gordan Ramsey box (come with all extras) or stick to the De-luxe? I have no care on colour or stand as shuved in cupboard.

E-bay I'm getting it through as I have loads of credit.

Don't know about the Bimax. Have a Braun Multiquick myself... the one that attaches to a little mini food processor. That part I seem to use far more than the blender. FWIW After being suckered into a 'celeb chef' goblet blender once which spectacularly died very prematurely, I'm not a big fan of anything that comes with an endorsement any more.

I've checked the spec and Gordon's has 180w against the 160w. The RPMs are the same so little difference (5 yr warranty against 10yr too) However for the £32 extra I've ordered the standard deluxe. With Gordons you get a recipe book, DVD, beaker and one extra attachment but I wouldnt use any of these. £98 on e-bay. I need strength in any kitchen utensil as I'm pretty heavy handed!!!
