Sad Day - RIP Brauny

Today is a sad day for me. My good and trusted friend for the last 6 years has given up the go and packed it in.
That is my Braun electric hand mixer. Did almost everything with my little friend, whip, blend, chop, grind...everything. And now feel lost without it. I think I over worked it trying to puree some prunes. Smoke started coming out of the motor which was first sign it was over. baahaa :(
Trying to do things completely manually is like going to the stone age.
Now on the hunt for a new hand mixer. Saw Braun Hand mixers comes in 600W. That's 100 more than my old one.
Just keep an eye for them to come on special.
RIP my little friend.
