@JoNorvelleWalker, I've blown through 2 KitchenAids, so curious what you'd recommend. I'm thinking of Bamix as heavy duty; are you saying it's not?
I'm about to remodel my kitchen . . . and am thinking where to place appliances.
My first immersion blender was an inexpensive KitchenAid and I burned that out. I hope you are not saying you burned out two of their commercial units? If so at least they come with a "hassle-free" two year replacement warranty.

The Bamix motor in my homogenizer has a stated duty cycle of five minutes max. It works great but I would not call that heavy duty. Your mileage may vary.
My current immersion blender is a cheap Cuisinart, circa $20. So far I haven't burnt it out.
Edit: oops, sorry, my Cuisinart was $31.49 -- $26.99 at the moment.
