Our Verdict

Bamix Mono M133

Smeg HBF02

The Bamix Mono M133 and the Smeg HBF02 have different strengths, and you may prefer either, depending on what you're looking for. The Bamix has a significantly better build quality, and its design is better suited for blending hot ingredients directly in a pot or pan. The Smeg isn't very well-built, but it comes with a food processing attachment that makes it much better for making thick mixes like nut butter.
