How many blades does it have? Does it puree (for baby food)? Are there attachments available; i.e. whisk attachment or chopper?

It has one blade (2-sided). It would be fine to puree for baby food. No attachments.

2 blades only no attachment but to be honest it seems to be enough. The Motor is extremely powerful and you will have no problem using it to puree baby food. I'd wish to have this one when my kids were babies. I use it for pancake or cake mix. It features a variable speed and a supra power option. It washes very quickly. The only downsize for me is that you have to hold the button while mixing which can be tiring.

Not cordless. The cord is on the "handle" part of the device. The handle separates from the attachment(s). I think there is a video on this one. The lady says the chopper chops too fine but I like a fine chop most of the time. Hope this helps.

It has two blades, but I have been using it for months now and it is FAST and thorough.I mostly use on it vegetables, and you do have to make sure they are pre-cut before you put them in the chopper. So, for example, I just made split pea soup yesterday. My recipe calls for an entire onion, so I skinned the onion and cut it into quarters.This is one kitchen tool I will never do without, because it's almost as good as a food processor for most softer foods (haven't tried to make cookie crusts with it yet, but I have a food processor for that) and it's a LOT easier to clean. I put all the parts in the dishwasher and it's clean. Brilliant!

It has one blade, and would purée anything including baby food. It is a great immersion blender!

I think it would work great for baby food. I made applesauce that was the perfect consistency. It comes with 3 blades so you can control the thickness of food you put through it. I also use it for soups and sauces.

I was researching this blender to make baby food as well. Did you purchase this model? If so, how is it working for you?

It has three slicing blades, but no whisk/paddle parts. It doesn't make sense to me that you'd make pizza crust with a shredder.

It came with only one blade, but does an excellent job of pureeing. I have not come across a whisk attachment, but perhaps others have?

That's what I thought too, but I was wrong. The 12 cup is ONLY a slicer/shredder, there are no knife blades in the kit or available. If you really want a "food processor" and a smaller quantity slicer/shredder, get the smaller food processor.

No, it only has the one blade. Really, it's the only one needed. It purees any fruit or vegetables that's been cooked to a soft consistency .it is not for mashing .

No. It is not strong enough and is for mixing only. For making mashed food for baby, you can use a hand blender, small food chopper, or a regular blender. Just have to wait for the food to cool down some before putting it into the food chopper or a blender, unless it is a blender with the glass jar. I like hand blender with detachable metal shaft, because 1) I can just stick it into any pots or cups, 2) it is not plastic so I don't have to worry about temperature, 3) the shaft can detach for easy cleaning. I like the Cuisinart CSB-75BC Smart Stick 2-Speed Immersion Hand Blender.

Food processor attachment was included but I would say its a food chopper. If you are expecting it to work like a cuisinart, you willbe disappointed.

Its not a chopper. It does slice very thinly. You can criss cross over the blade and get a cubing effect.

It only comes with a chopping blade. It work great on anything you need to chop, even tomatoes.

No, it comes with a chopping blade and a shredding, dicing, slicing plate blade. but you can do dough in it with the regular chopping blade that comes with it. The chopping blade chops, purees and mixes dough as well. Works great for pie crust doughs!

It has a chopper too, but I never use that. The standard attachment can be used to mix all kinds of things as long as they're not too dry. Think of it as something that creates a puree. Why don't you check the manufacturer's website to see if there's a whisk attachment?
