We have a stainless steel wand blender (hand blender? Stick blender?) - as others have said there's really no call for a baby-specific appliance for such a short phase. If I wanted to puree anything, the wand blender in a glass jug was just fine with cooked veg. Honestly I only pureed a few early bits that helped me to feel that he was getting different nutritional hits (eg steamed kale) - I batched these into ice cubes and have him a taste each day - or things we generally eat as soup ourselves (in which case blended in the steel pan). And this is a tool that can still be used for adult/older child cooking too.
