A long-shaft commercial immersion blender for stockpots and large batches in foodservice. It is overkill and awkwardly long for home kitchens, and the wattage listed conflicts between sections.

Overview
The BigRig was designed by the commercial division for professional kitchens, with a stainless shaft, an ergonomic handle and a color-coded variable speed dial. It runs continuously for large volumes and has a detachable attachment.
Where it earns its keep is large pots: the shaft reaches deep and the continuous run option lets cooks work without letting go of a button. The listing text disagrees with itself on motor power, so check the exact motor rating before ordering.
Who it's for
A foodservice operation that mixes large batches in stockpots will benefit from the reach and the dial. A home cook who makes a bowl of soup would find it long and heavy to store.
Pros and cons
- Long shaft for deep pots
- Continuous run operation
- Variable speed dial
- Free of several chemicals
- Wattage inconsistent in listing
- Heavy and long for home use
- Cord limits movement
Performance notes
A powerful motor spins the blade at the end of a long shaft, so the work is done deep in the pot while the handle stays above the steam. Speed is set by the dial, and a lower setting prevents splashing as the blade enters thick food.
