On-the-Go Gourmets

The MIXXO by Bosch, part of the Todd English Collection, is a new cordless handheld blender that allows you to prepare food and drinks—from appetizers to eggnog—wherever you are and without the hassle of cords or plugs.

The unit features lithium battery technology—the first among kitchen appliances—to provide twenty minutes of continuous blending (that’s nearly twice as long as other handheld blenders). With an LED indicator that displays the battery's charge level, the MIXXO only takes 2 hours to be fully charged. No worries about decreasing battery life through overcharging — that's not possible, thanks again to the lithium battery. Plus, since the battery does not gradually lose charge when not in use, it can be used right away even if it has been sitting on your shelf for a long period of time.

The Bosch MIXXO is easy-to-use too! The stainless steel detachable foot crushes ice easily and is dishwasher safe. The MIXXO also features a dual-button safety system. Simply press and hold the safety button to activate the power button. Once the main power button is engaged, the safety button can be released. This sequence is simple for adults to use, but most importantly, protects against unintentional use by children. The MIXXO comes with a microwave and dishwasher safe beaker with lid; a freestanding charging station that can also be wall-mounted; a base unit and foot. A companion chopper is available separately. The MIXXO is available exclusively through the TV shopping network HSN (Home Shopping Network) and HSN.com for $117.90.
