Ahead of Mother’s Day.

Smeg has released the latest addition to its small appliance offering with the HBF02 hand blender, ideal for making soups, dressings and smoothies. An essential kitchen accessory, it sports a 700 watt motor, stainless steel blade with FlowBlend technology for optimal blending as there is no vacuum between the blade mount and container surface.

The hand blender also boasts variable speed control with four speeds plus a turbo control function. It is accompanied by a 1.4 litre BPA-free Tritan beaker, 0.5 litre chopper, potato masher and whisk attachment all for an RRP of $249. It is now available from department stores and selected electrical retailers in four colours – black, pastel blue, panna and red.

With the launch of the hand blender ahead of the Mother’s Day period, head of brand, Tamara Buchanan said the Smeg Mother’s Day gift line-up has never been so luxurious, stylish or colourful. “In a first for the brand, there are no less than six new appliances that any mum would love, coupled with consumer promotions to make gift giving more inspired and affordable.”
