I wanted to buy an electric hand whisk but as I wouldn't be using it too frequently, wasn't keen on spending a fortune. Argos to the rescue. They have a basic range which I have only just discovered but I think has been about for a few years now. Apparently they have over 300 items in the range. Other whisks I looked at were around the £30 mark and some well above. This little whisk cost under a fiver. Yes. I read the reviews on the Argos website, and everyone said it was a great bargain, not too bulky, and the wattage on comparison was as good as some of the branded names. In I go, get it home, and try it out making meringues. It has a number of speeds, all working fine, and it whisked up my egg whites perfectly. I am soooo happy I didn't spend a fortune. A great bargain and my meringues were fab too.
