[Sca-cooks] Cuisinart stick blender

>If your Cuisinart is anything like my Braun

I've been thinking about getting a stick, but must admit I haven't tried to 
do any research.  How does Braun compare to Cuisinart (or any other 
brand)?  I (or my budget :-))
am not up for the $140 models, but information comparing power, ease of 
use/cleaning and use-life (I don't want something that will need to be 
replaced every year) would be helpful.
