*Themaximum score is 100 points
In the practical test, the blender function was tested first. This is always error-free, very easy and reliable to operate, so there were no concerns here. The assembly and changing of all attachments is effortless and very simple, as is the disassembly. Thanks to the use of hard, non-porous plastic, all parts and the blender can be cleaned very easily by hand or in the dishwasher, as long as the product parts are not electrical. The speed of the blender is very sensitive and can also be adjusted during active operation; a turbo function is also available, which makes a significant difference. The hand blender is very ergonomic and comfortable to use. However, after a while a minimal pressure can be felt, which restricts handling slightly.

Price/performance ratio

*Themaximum score is 100 points
At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €69.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €33.99 . The Zeegma® hand blender set is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €39.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
