This Hand Mixers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Tried them all...
I love the KitchenAid 9 speed mixer. I first tried the 5 & 7 speed (non-digital) ones but they have a sliding finger control knob that would accidentally slide past setting 1 to the other settings. The digital display on this model fixes that problem. Also, the low start-up speed is nice and SLOW like it should be. I tried Cuisinart and their low speed would ramp-up super fast when you first turn on the mixer before settling into it's official 1st speed. I had flour flying everywhere. I also tried Black & Decker Pro from Walmart for $20 which had great reviews but it had a slow speed that was much too fast. Same with Sunbeam. I'm very happy with this mixer and hope to use it for years to come.

2. So Far, So Good
Bought this (the 9-speed) because my old Hamilton Beach (96 watts) from the 80s started making an awful racket. Turned out the plastic cooling-fan blades had crystallized and broken off and were rattling around inside the case when the motor ran.

I was skeptical of this mixer because the wattage was even lower (72 watts), but, given my experience with KitchenAid products, the wonderful Classic stand mixer, the outstanding and very powerful 5-speed blender which quickly turns ice cream, straight from the carton, into a super-thick malt (no additional water or milk needed), and hand blender, I decided to give this hand mixer a try.

Its first, and so far only, task was to blend a 2-pound jar of strawberry preserves into 2.5-pounds of peanut butter in an old Pyrex mixing bowl (purchased years ago from K-Mart, and which yuppies apparently pay high prices for these days in "antique" stores). The mix has the texture of very thick cookie dough, and caused the old mixer...

Great mixer, but read the fine print!
If you've done your homework, you know this is a top-rated hand mixer. What you may not have realized yet is how these are packaged. It took me a few minutes to figure this out, but you should note that this mixer comes with all kinds of cool beaters, except one important one... the actual turbo beaters that you will use the most. I then noticed the special offering that combines the mixer and these necessary beaters for an additional $14 incl. shipping (second vender). How very clever! Turns out the configuration varies with the vender; the mixer is packaged different ways depending on who is selling it.

Also note, I inquired with KitchenAid about the differences between the 7 and 9 speed models. Turns out there are real difference is the RPM range; that is, the Hi/lo of each are different (see below), not just the same range, divided differently. Might be of use for buyers to publish this.

This Hand Mixers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Great product at a great price!
I had researched hand mixers for a little while and I was just waiting for my old, cheap, loud hand mixer to die before I could convince my wife I needed a new one (she insisted on the pink color!). I was intending to buy the Kitchen-Aid because of its reputation, but I saw this product reviewed on Cook's Illustrated and it was rated just as high but significantly cheaper than the Kitchen-Aid. I used to use my Kitchen-Aid stand mixer for just about everything, but now that I have this great product, I will definitely be reaching for it more often than my cheaper hand mixer before this one!

2. Fantastic buy!
I had never owned a good quality mixer, despite being an avid baker. After receiving a gift certificate to Amazon I decided to apply it toward the purchase of a nice hand mixer.
After browsing thru many models and reading reviews, I finally decided on this 7 speed mixer. I was happy to get the Cuisinart Breast Cancer pink, since I am a survivor.
The first time I used it, I could hardly believe the power it has. I only took it up to the 3rd power level and it mixed very thick cookie dough. It made my holiday baking a breeze. There are so many things I used to have to mix by hand, but not now. The Power Select mixer handled everything with ease and I still have yet to use power level 7.
If you are looking for a heavy duty hand mixer that is fairly lightweight and has very easy to clean beaters, this is the mixer to buy.

Wonderful!
So far, I love it! I have used it about 10 times and it works wonderfully.

I love the slow speeds, they are very handy.

Hopefully it stays this good!

This Hand Mixers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. The woman of my dreams makes cakes & pies...
My (much) better half was using a 20+ year-old thrift-store mixer to make the magic in the kitchen that she does so well. The problem was that when she turned on that ol' thing, the TV went haywire,the lights would flicker,and one needed ear protection from the crazy noise level.
Santa finally got the message, and produced this mixer as a gift. What a difference ! Compared to the old mixer, this is almost silent. Much lighter weight, much easier to handle. Santa did well this time.
This mixer has plenty of torque for the cakes, pies and sweetbreads, even on the lowest settings. She hasn't used it for mixing bread dough, as that task is handled by the bread-maker machine. In 7 months of use, absolutely no complaints or problems.
My better half loves it, and when Momma is happy the odds of my happiness increase proportionally.

2. Great Portable mixer
My wife loves her mixer. It does everything she wants it to do; most important, she can start the mixer at a slow speed and she can control the speed

Waste of Money
I've had my hand mixer for just over a year. I don't always want to haul out my stand mixer and so I was very excited to see they made a hand mixer. Based on my history with the stand mixer I forked over the big bucks for this. I absolutely loved it! That is until last week when I went to use it and it flat out would not turn on. I thought perhaps it was my outlet and tried several outlets in my kitchen with the same results. Finally dawned on my to try another appliance in the same outlets. Sadly it was not my outlet. Of course now it is out of warranty. For the price should have lasted way longer than this! Also I'm not an avid cook/baker, so I really only used it maybe 2 times a month, so it's not like I wore it out either. :(

Breville BHM500XL Handy Mix Digital Hand Mixer, Chrome

Cheap Breville BHM500XL Handy Mix Digital Hand Mixer, Chrome
==================================================================

With so many recipes suggesting mixing times, we've added a timer to this hand mixer. It allows you to accurately track your mixing time for precise results. And with a strong 200W motor, 16 speeds plus turbo boost, beaters, whisk and dough hooks, it has the versatility to handle all your mixing tasks. Now that's handy.
  • 16 speeds for light mixing to high speed whipping
  • Backlit lcd with timer function
  • Non tip heel rest
  • 200-Watt Twin Beater Action
  • Includes two flat beaters, one wire whisk, and two dough hook attachements

This Hand Mixers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. There is no equal!
These are the best hand mixers on the market. Breville is somewhat new to American markets and is not well known here in the USA, but without a doubt the word is getting out about their superiority. Being a professional baker, I need a mixer that can cut through heavy cookie batters and bread doughs, especially when I don't want to use the stand mixer. No other model on the market has 16 speed settings and I have used every one of them. This thing is powerful! These mixers may cost a bit more, but they are worth every penny for quality and convenience.

2. Thought there were problems, but customer service was great.
The LCD display for speed and timing seem stuck on 16 and 01:27 no matter what I did. The booklet said nothing about a display sticker that you must first peel off. D'oh!

The beaters did not self-eject. The booklet seemed to imply that pressing the Eject button would release the beaters and it does but they don't fall out. You must tug.

I had my old beater for 30 years and have had two high-end replacements which I returned for various reasons.

This one I'm keeping.

Breville Hand Mixer
Great product. Love the way you can stand it up on counter. Mixer has 16 speeds which is perfect with a power button. Works well for the whipped cream as one can whip without having the cream spew all over with the constant variable speed. Like being able to wrap the cord around mixer but needs something to clip it to the cord to hold in place. Could be a little quieter but wouldn't want to lose any power to make it so. Am very pleased with it's performance.
