The stick blender shaft for the braun turbo cannot be cleaned inside and since there is a gap between the blade shaft and the head of the stick in this model‎,‎ food can enter‎.‎ Despite thorough washing the food collects‎,‎ cannot be seen‎,‎ and cannot be washed out‎.‎ My son visits on his way to work every day to have a free range egg flip for which he used our new braun turbo stick blender‎.‎ The routine was to stand it in water immediately to stop food drying on before washing it after he left‎.‎ After a couple of weeks‎,‎ to my horror when tracing down a foul smell in my appliance cupboard‎,‎ i found maggots crawling out of the stick head‎!‎ 

I had used an older model braun since the late 1990s to prepare my invalid father‎'‎s food and had no problems maintaining hygiene with that model‎.‎ I could and did inspect the inside of the blender stick and reach to the bottom to clean it‎.‎ This is impossible in the turbo model‎.‎ After soaking all day in domestos on 4 separate occasions it still smells like a dead cow beside the road‎.‎ We have lost months of use‎,‎ and the wire whisk head is pretty useless and just sprays food everywhere‎.‎
