I hesitated to purchase this mixer because I wasn't familiar with the brand, but I needed a strong mixer for bread dough. It is definitely high-powered, but I find it difficult to use on most recipes because I struggle to find the right speed. Even using the deepest bowl I have, I still ended up cleaning whipped potatoes off my kitchen last night. However, I am hopeful that with time, I will get used to the speeds and be able to enjoy using this mixer, especially for making meringue.

I initially had high hopes for this mixer's power to handle heavy ingredients, but it turned out to be just average. I should have checked for a power booster button, as my old mixer had this feature and I found it very useful. The design of the mixer is great, with the cord wrapping around the bottom to prevent tangling. Overall, it's a good mixer for the price, but it lacks the extra power I was hoping for.

I did a thorough research on hand mixers before buying this product. One thing I noticed was how loud it was, but I also observed how it was manufactured. When I unpacked it, I ran it (without using it) for a few minutes at a time. I started on lower speeds, ran it for about a minute, turned it off, and let it cool. It was very loud. I repeated this process a few times on the lowest speed, then increased the speed. The noise level improved after several repetitions. Finally, when I used it a few days later, I was very happy with the reduced noise level and the strong mixing power.

I have been buying mixers in the $15-$50 range since I got married, and they all seem to have the same problem - the beaters, switches, power cords, and controls break easily because the cases are made of cheap material. This product is no different. While it has a nice design and good motor, the speed controls feel flimsy and are likely to break. The compact design and storage for hooks and beaters is a plus, and the speed increments and turbo button are great for baking. However, with occasional use and proper care, the case may only last about 3 years. The motor will likely last longer, but if the controls break, it won't be very useful. Overall, it's good for occasional use, but if you bake every day, the speed controls may not last. This is just based on my personal experience, but I hope it's helpful for you.

I was recently able to purchase this hand mixer at a great price, and I'm really pleased with how good it is. Even though it's affordable, it feels like a well-made product. It's heavier and quieter than my old mixers, and I appreciate the two-stage speed control. I'm not sure if the turbo speed is necessary, and I have some doubts about its durability when it comes to handling heavy dough. However, the flat bottom design is convenient and the long cord makes it easier to store. Overall, I'm impressed, even though I haven't used it much yet.

I replaced my 1999 hand mixer with a new one because of its powerful reviews. It's definitely strong, but the beaters are harder to clean due to the grooves. I miss my whisk beaters and struggle to get the beaters lined up properly. The short cord is also inconvenient, and I wish the mixer was more weighted at the bottom. Overall, it's powerful and well-made, but lacks some design features I prefer. It's a good mixer for most people, but those who cook and bake a lot should make sure it has all the features they want.

I purchased this hand mixer with the understanding that it was not high quality and would not last a long time. However, I was disappointed to find that it became unusable after only two uses.

Pros: It has a lot of power and worked well when I used it to make chocolate chip cookies.

Cons: 1) The lowest speed is vert fasr. 2) After just two uses, the attachments do not stay in place and the mixer vibrates excessively. The dough hooks even fell out when I tried to mix a lightweight dough.

Overall, this mixer did not meet my needs and I will be returning it.
