I got
this one for christmas a few years ago. I use the small prep-chop (last item on the right) far more than I do the immersion blender (though I do use that once in a while).
The prep-chop can make salsas, sauces, gremolata, pesto, salad dressing, etc. in small volumes much better than a blender or a food processor. It's certainly one of my favorite gadgets... and it's in storage right now.
