Blender suggestions?!

[segc94]

I’m after a blender in which I can make soups, juices, finely chop veg etc...
I bought one which made soups and juices but it took a lot of time and was still lumpy after 5-8 mins blitzing however it was quite cheap.
Any suggestions?!

Also would like to make curry pastes, humous, sauces....

I’ve just got a very cheap stick blender, think it was Sansburys basics but I’ve had it so long I can’t remenber. Works fine.

I bought this blender a couple of years ago and think it is brilliant, I use it every day for smoothies and compared to my previous one it blends velvet smooth. I make hummus, banana ice cream (from frozen bananas) blend soup etc. It has a glass jug which is what I wanted as plastic goes cloudy but it is quite heavy. The blades can be removed for deep cleaning.

For some reason I can't link it, it's 49.99 from Amazon, Duronic BL1200

I love my nutri bullet, was half price when I bought it so happy days. They can be really expensive!!
