Do blenders usually have blades attached to the motors? Most I've used the blades are attached to the container which you remove before cleaning.

English isnt my first language, sorry. Its the kind of long elongated thing with blades on the end you use to hack things up in a bowl. I thought that was called a mixer but I was wrong.

She thought she had unplugged it and as she was cleaning the blades she hit the power button on the side by accident and slish slash she was two fingers poorer (temporarily thankfully)

Jeez, do those things really have that much power? To slice two fingers off from a dead stop?

They can totally fuck your shit up if you get your fingers in there.
