I am also in the "want for convenience but have a stick blender & not much space" camp.

And I like a bargain
But is it a bargain if not 100% needed!
I know what mr pix will say 😂

Right I have just thrown together a quick pot of tomato and lentil soup. Took minutes to prepare and will simmer away for another 30 or so while have another coffee and shower. Will be about 6 portions when ready. I do not need a soup maker.

What do people use to freeze soup in?
Bags seem more logical but take up more space in the freezer than a box?

I have been my soaking my broth mix all night so off to make some broth.
I have Chinese carry out cartons - 2 ladles into each gives me enough for a lunch time portion - especially if I leave it chunky

I use whatever freezable/microwaveable plastic containers with lids I have floating about. If have a few the same they are stackable. Ready meals/takeaway cartons are good to hold 1 or 2 portions. Old 1kg yoghurt pots (the round ones with handles and plastic lids) are good for a big batch. When was taking soup to work also used the microwaveable soup cups with lids and steam vent so could take out of freezer in morning and heating up at lunchtime(I know you want to heat at home so probably no benefit for you with those just now)

I use freezer bags for single servings, they all line up nicely across a drawer and made bricks which tessellate but can be separated at will. It’s the most efficient use of tiny freezer space for me. I can only get 2 or 3 plastic containers in a drawer but 6 bags easily.
