    I read those kind of injuries with stick blenders are pretty common. I always unplug since I learned that.

      I might pulse it in water a few times to clean mine, but there’s no way I am putting my fingers anywhere near the sharp end while the head is plugged into the motor, let alone while it’s plugged into the wall.

        My shitty cheap immersion blender burnt itself out when I tried to make a smoothie. Since then I’ve sworn off immersion blenders.
