Mixers

This is my first new stand mixer. The one I had before was from the '70's I bought at a yard sale. It worked but it was noisy, heavy and difficult to store. I only had one set of beaters for it so there was only so much I could do. My new Hamilton Beach Stand Mixer is so quiet and powerful, I couldn't believe how well it works. It's light weight and easy to store plus I love the sleek design. Suddenly I feel like a "grown-up" cook! ;D I also love the versatility of using it as a stand or hand mixer. I was a bit disappointed the stand mixer doesn't have a paddle attachment but after a few uses, I found I don't need it. I can use my beaters for 90% of what I make and then switch to the dough hooks for the bread. This is an affordable stand mixer perfect for the average home cook. I love my new Hamilton Beach Stand Mixer and look forward to using it for years to come."..."  Read more

After years (decades) of wanting a stand mixer, I got this one and although I love it, there is very little "space" in between the beater and the top of the machine and the bowl causing me to have to shut the mixer off in order to add things like sugar or flour without feeling as if it will spill since all the parts feel so close, if that makes sense. I don't know if this is because it's a bowl lift and the tilt head has more "space" but that's my only negative and maybe all stand mixers are made this way and it's just a new-to-me thing. Overall, it's a great machine!"..."  Read more

I use this mixer for volume that is too small for my stand mixer. Works fine for that. Comfortable to hold."

It works perfectly!! Its light and easy to use. I would recommend this item to anyone that need mixer. Its inexpensive and works like a charm."
