Just can't live without this mixer! October 19, 2007
gr8chefmb from Mesquite, TX

"I absolutely LOVE this mixer! It can handle just about any task you care to assign to it - from whipping egg whites to whipping mashed potates to kneading bread dough to whatever. This machine is like an extra pair of hands in my kitchen, and even better, it doesn't take up a lot of space. With the variety of attachments you can purchase for it, this mixer can be extremely versatile. As Alton Brown would say, 'Don't buy something that doesn't have several different uses!' This mixer can be cleaned easily and will offer years of dependability. The multiple speeds can handle the most delicate of tasks to the heavier ones, such as kneading bread. I think the only flaw is that I wished the top flipped up, similar to the old-fashioned stand mixers. This isn't really a big deal, though, because the bowl goes up and down by means of a handle on the side. I also wish that there are smaller bowls for little tasks, but I can usually use my hand mixer or blender for those. It would just be nice for the times when I need an extra pair of hands. Overall, this is a dream machine to use and truly indispensable in the kitchen."
