I've always wondered why emmersion blender haven't gotten more market penetration. I love to use them, but the brauns, krups and cuisinarts seem to wear out really fast.

Frankly, it looks like CI was testing some low to mid-range consumer blenders, but this may be a start.

I have heard from some cooks and at least one well-known chef that Waring makes some heavy duty blenders of this type. They are spendy and somewhat heavy, but you might want to check 'em out if for no other reason than having a point of reference.
